Hey guys I am wondering if I get a i7 6700k if a 1060 wouldn't be good enough or if I should get a 1070 with a 1080p 144hz monitor. Mainly cs go and editing 

Do you already have the 1080p 144hz display?

If you're just playing CS:GO mainly you could save a fair amount cash with an RX 470


Also do you already own the CPU or something? because the non K versions makes more sense to buy

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

CS: GO will pretty much run above 60 FPS on almost any potato you throw at it.

 

If my i3-6100/GTX 960 build, CS: GO usually maintains around 115-135 FPS at max settings 1080p, then an i7-6700K/RX 470 (or GTX 1060) build should simply wipe the floor with this game.

You dont need a 6700k for CS. Not even close.
