It depends on which games you play, for more GPU dependent games a 1600 with a 1080 is a better option

Quite frankly unless you wanna look like some CS:GO Pro player with 4:3 800x600p 600+fps that is a better pick always over going i7 7700k + 1070 [:

With a fresh install of windows and no other programs running yes the i7 will just about outperform the r5 1600 but a couple of months down the line when your PC is full of crap and there is a load of programs running in the background those extra cores will give you better performance.

A thousand times this !!!

i don't have a lot of crap on my pc but I do have 3 screens 

usually 2 tabs 

Skype and discord then a game in the middle, might not sound like a lot but runs so much much better on ryzen

 

reviwers always test on a clean os with only a few games installed
