So I'm looking to build a gaming PC. I am going to get an i5 7600k, don't worry, I'll wait for Ryzen for dem price drops, and a CRYORIG H5 Universal cooler. I am wondering what clock I can get this chip to with this cooler.

Anything will just be a guess and it depends entirely on your luck in the silicon lottery....but around 4.3-4.5ghz most likely.

on a cryorig h5??? 4.5 ghz is liquid cooling territory. 4.3 seems like the mid temp range for air cooling

It depends how hard he pushes the fans. A lot of people don't mind the fans cranked up, and it also depends on the chip. 4.5ghz is definitely a possibility with a decent chip.

Uh, yeah... okay. 4.5GHz on i5-6600k + Hyper 212 EVO is possible and it's 300MHz slower.

Also, if you looked at my PC list, would you recommend a 650w (like I have now on my list), or a 550w PSU?

Thanks for the OC stuff

Either. The system will only draw like 300w~. 

 

I would also personally go with a Z170 board + 6700k instead.

Thanks for that too! If I were to use the i7 6700k, what overclock could I get that to?

Safe to say 4.4 on the 6700k.

4.6ish.  Dunno why people are throwing around this 4.3-4.5 stuff, that's basically stock clocks.

 

That 7600k should have no problem doing 4.6-4.8, KabyLake clocks to the moon, if you can manage to delid it, 4.8+ is very easy.
