Do you plan on overclocking the CPU?

yes, of curse!

I think an i7 will be better for editing

but i'd not be editing 4k or something like that

and this is my budget build kind of so.

I agree too, but not if you plan on editing only once in a while. Is editing the focus?

The i7 would be faster but in no means necessary.

What kind of editing do you plan on doing?

50 - 50

but i'd edit csgo footage and a bit IRL at 1080p not something serious at all

You can save a little bit of money by going with a Hyper 212 Evo. the 6600K really does not put out a lot of heat so it doesn't need a cooler as intense as an H100i v2. Unless you really want to push the boundaries of your chip, a 212 Evo would be great for OCing

i'd be overclocking it at the start to 4.2 and then 4.5, 4.7

i5 is probably fine then. You could always get a better CPU later if you decided the i5 wasn't good enough.

and the 1060 5gb have a performances of 980

So no 3D rendering?

Here's a build I managed to fit the i7-6700K into. Changed out the SSD, RAM, and the GPU. Pascal has locked voltage so a super fancy aftermarket card really won't net you any gains at all excpet maybe a few degrees Celsius

 

[edit] the 6600K is still a great pick though and will do just fine in light editing/rendering environments

Then the i5 will be good. My girlfriend does 3D modeling/rendering and has to use an i7, that's why I asked

[HKZeroFive]

Three points.

 

I'd get a i7 6700K and a cheap air cooler as opposed to the i5 6600K and an expensive watercooler. Why? Because you will see a boost in CPU-intensive games (Fallout 4, GTA V, The Witcher 3, Crysis 3 and the newly released Battlefield 1 to name a few) and simultaneously see higher minimum framerates and more consistent frametimes (aka less stuttering). The fact that you're also editing is another reason to get the i7.

 

The second criticism is that you should get the EVGA SuperNOVA 550 G2 instead of the Antec EDGE for the same price.

 

The third is the SSD. It uses planar TLC which isn't all that good. I'd be looking at the Crucial MX300 which is also cheaper.

ok, what is TLC?

I was going to type it all out but luckily Linus has a relevant video:

ok, so MLC are better then TLC because the TLC life's less longer and they more cheaper then the MLC right?

[Sir Asvald]

1080p editing is fine on the i5. I've got the i5 4690, rendering 1080p footage will take around 15-20 minutes. Everything else is rendered by the GPU, Gotta love OpenGL.

The most basic explanation is that MLC>TLC when it comes to durability and performance but they're also more expensive.

 

99% of the time, you won't notice the speed difference if you're using it daily. Usually the reason why people like TLC SSDs is because of the price.

 

But planar TLC SSDs such as the Samsung 750 EVO aren't all that good when it comes to durability... making drives like the Samsung 850 EVO (which is a TLC 3D V-NAND SSD) a better choice when it comes to reliability and performance.

abit over budget but:

so i saying here that i should put more money for the MLC ssd?
