Posted June 4, 2017 Thoughts? Will be used for PC gaming & streaming. I currently have a 4790K with a 970 and streaming has been a hassle with some games. Don't think its the GPU, so. If you could, please pair with a mobo and ram, price isnt an issue.

Posted June 4, 2017 You want to upgrade from a i7 4790K to a i5 6600k/i7 7700K? That isn´t a upgrade. Overclock your cpu a bit and you get more performance boost than by buying a 6600k/7700k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 4, 2017 Are you realy sure that the GPU isn´t bottlenecking your system? If you have time, use a tool like Corsair Link and assure you that it realy is the CPU causing problems. If you go for a new CPU go for a Ryzen 7, streaming profits from more cores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes no sense. 6600k is a downgrade. 7700k is barely an upgrade, you would be basically just throwing money away. There is many ways to setup streaming, maybe you would want to look into that first? What settings in OBS do you use if you have issues? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted June 4, 2017 Buying a 7700k is money wasting. Could also be a software issue or something else. Btw, why did you buy a "K" CPU if you dont want to Overclock even a bit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
