Easy, spend what you think is appropriate.

 

Since you are not editing much, the 6600k is plenty.

 

Maybe these two builds suggestions might help you:

Ideally, the hexacore 5820K would be best for editing.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Neither, 5820k. Priced between the two, overclocks to similar base (4.4-4.6 average), and has +2c/4t for a boost to video editing/encoding performance.

Ideally, the hexacore 5820K would be best for editing.

 

And at least here in the UK is actually cheaper than the Core i7-6700K

 

Go with whatever you think is right mate, for editing the Core i7 will be better but bare in mind that the Core i5 won't be a slouch and you always have OC'ing so that will provide a little extra boost. If more board manufacturers release BIOS's that will enable you to BCLK OC then by a cheaper locked Core i5. Could be worth a look mate :)
