Which Is the right cpu

[Rickie cheong]

Hey guys,i wanted to know,which cpu is better for rendering and editing videos,the intel core i7-5820k or the intel core i7-6700k.i also plan on gaming on it,which one is more suitable for me?

[TheRandomness]

The 5820k due to the 6 cores and 12 threads, bearing in mind you will need an X99 motherboard for it. 

[Vode]

5820k will beat the 6700k in rendering and OC almost match it in gaming. The 5820k has more OC headroom but will output more heat so get a bigger cooler. 

 

Also yeah X99 motherboard.

Having an enthusiast grade CPU will require you some extra money. Otherwise imo it's just a waste and go for the "cheaper" loadout. These kind of decisions are sometimes the time to go all-in for your rig.

I'd get a Hyper 412 at least, better a Be Quiet Dark Rock Pro, CM Master Air Maker 8 or Noctua NH-D15.

 

Water Cooling AIO are nice but I think the thought of water damage is just too scary for me with a $500+ CPU and Mainboard inside. And a 240 radiator will perform almost the same as a good dual tower heatsink.

If you render and edit video allot then the 5820K / 6800K no brainer.

 

Good aircoolers.
