Posted August 24, 2018 For your usecase an 2700x would most likely be the better choice. What programs do you use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent had the longest time to look but it seems at least the unity engine favors the 8700k, though idk what has changed since october last year as thats is the newest data i found.

Posted August 24, 2018 The setup looks great although the SSD seems excessive. In addition you could save some money by using a Gigabyte Z370P https://fr.pcpartpicker.com/product/V9WfrH/gigabyte-z370p-d3-atx-lga1151-motherboard-z370p-d3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, the SSD is fine as I am used to having a 120GB one as a boot drive. Motherboard-wise I run a Gigabyte B360M DS3H and it has not given me any issue so I doubt a higher-end board by them would have any issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You sure that it is not the PSU? the motherboard website and page states that it supports 8th Gen Intel CPUs (Coffee Lake) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
