Ryzen 1500x

So, is it more worth it to buy a Ryzen 1500x for cheaper and a slightly worse core speed, or to pay 40-50 more dollars and get the i5-6600k with a slower multi-core speed. Note that I am pairing this with a GTX 1060 6Gb.

Why not a 1600?

It's the best value Ryzen according to almost everyone.

I have a Ryzen 5 1500x overclock to 3.9 GHz. Performance is amazing.
