Which CPU should i use?

[josh23]

Im stuck between the 7700k chipset and the 6700k chipset. I will be using my setup for light content creating and mostly gaming. What do you think?

[Colin Donoghue]

Do you already have a intel mobo if not 

For content creation use ryzen

Depends on pricing and other specs.

7700k is fine if you already have a mobo. If not r7 1700 is good too, though the 7700k performs better for gaming if that's what you'll mostly be doing.
