Then get the one you linked, that's a much better deal.  It's only about 17€ more in the US with sales.

8700K will match R7 1800X's multicore at the best

And will destroy its single thread performance and have a higher ipc

Sources say 8700k is going to completely blow Ryzen out of the water because they have competition now

That's a huge exaggeration.  Besides, at launch the 8700K is probably going to be around $500.  They're already jacking up MSRP to $400.

If you were buying new RAM I'd definitely say go with 3200MHz RAM.  Realistically though, we're talking about a 10FPS difference at most.  Keep the RAM you have for now, and high frequency RAM can be a viable upgrade option down the line.

By few percent. For example, in CPU-Z bench i am touching 90% of 7700K Single-core with R5 at 3.9GHz

Its a fact that AMD right now has the better procesor for price , i was just thinking about 7700 bcoz i have a mobo that fits the cpu

The 8700K is also using the same garbage Thermal paste as 7th gen meaning it will require a very good cooler to avoid overheating. It will also require an expensive Z370 board. In short, it will be about 200$ more expensive if you want something that doesn't melt.

Hello i have a 6100 and i posted this already but i have second toughts again im soon gonna upgrade my cpu since its bottlenecking in games like bf1 and gta 5 which i like to play , so i coudl upgrade to a 7700 non k or for 300€ or get a new mobo and buy a ryzen 1600 for the same price , would i lose a lot of 1080p peroromance if i want locked 60 fps with 2400 mhz ram? I dont care about 300fps but i do care about stable 60 fps in games like bf1

Thanks

7700 for gaming

7700 performs better in games.

 

Only get a ryzen if you do else than gaming, or if you don't mind to get a little less performance in games, like if you play in 60 hz 60 fps won't make any difference to get the 7700k 

 

 

 

ryzen is not that exciting to be honest, unless you do a lot of rendering etc.. or if your on a budget since i5 doesn't make sense anymore...

 

But if you just look for the best gaming performance, its obviously the 7700K

 

But at that point, id say wait for the 8700K its going to be worth it

Also as i said i lock my fps to 60 fps since i use a 60 fps monitor and i plan on getting a new monitor with 60 or 75 hz again  , dont want to spent to much money on video games
