Comparision

ok so the deal here is simple, which build do you think I should go for nd why?

everything else besides these are going to be same (gtx 1070 , 1080p monitor, etc already have)

I already have a Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000mhz ram.

requirements- 1080p gaming, development softwares like android studio , visual studio, etc (which I'm guessing all 3 might be able to handle)

 

1- ryzen 1600x build - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/VkgFM8  

2- i5 7600k build - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qb9fVY

3 - i7 7700(non k) build - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xRyyLD

 

now the thing is that weirdly enough all these builds are costing me almost exactly the same so even price to performance ain't an issue.. 

only thing that matters is which build would be better.

is the x370 really that better? cause this b350 board really does seems to fulfill all my requirements.. oh I should have mentioned I already have a Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000mhz ram.

Any decent x370 board is costing me about 50$ more.

no, the big feature of x370 is crossfire/sli support which is poo anyway. B350 is good

Quality X370 boards like the ASRock Taichi offer extremely high overclocks

what to 4.0, 4.1 if you're lucky and 4.2 if you win the lottery? a good b350 board can overclock just as well
