I'm gonna overclock. It's either the 1600, 1700, or 7700K for me. Right, based on all your guys' arguments, the 1700 is best for me because I can get it for only 90 bucks more than the 1600 and it has two more cores. The 1700 has better minimums that the 7700K and it will be better for the future. 

not to mention upgrade path. am4 will be supported until 2020, and that will include zen 2 and 3, which are both 7nm chips

Offtopic but......cool build :)  i love how you use the 980TI. Can you tell me bit bout your performance? Nice pick on the board and monitor! My build will be something like that with the 1080TI or whatever the future will bring this summer. How do you do at 1440p on heavy gaming? Lol why did u get the 1600 too? To test between both? JEEZ stop making me so curious. :P

Haha cheers dude ! Sli 980ti is a u king beast at 1440p 144hz

 

tombraider maxed out in the bench mark I get 145 agerange fps but in game it's more like 160,

 

everything g is in the 110 plus range 

 

ow is 260 fps ish

 

best monitor ever Iq highly recommend one

 

and I got the 1600 first why my rma was goin through on my 4790k and I was a bit skint, then they didn't have a replacement chip so I was offered 190 cash or 300 store credit so I got the 1700 haha :P 

gona do a mini itx build with the 1600 :)

Risky theme! I like it! 144hz!! How was the personal experience stepping up to 1700? I was tbinking bout a SLi 980ti a while ago, funny to see one. Its like a wilder 1070 in sli for cheaper if you could get like 2 of these babes used (that sounds nasty). Have fun :)

 

Edit: Sigh i was so in my nerdgasm i forgot to say thanks for those stat.. Thanks for the stats!
