6600k If all you run is your game and teamspeak/ mumble ect. and some web browser tabs.

6700k If you Game, stream your games, Edit videos for your game and run 2 virtual machines with wow farming bots running in the background

So basically your sayinn 6600k ? lol

There's a pretty big discussion on reddit at the moment about i5-6600k vs i7-6700k going forward... Worth a read.

This is WOW not those games.
wow last I checked used 2 cores not 4.
the games ancient as fuck.

Also hyper threading has been known to cause 2-15% drops in some games during benchmarks.

I think that reddit post holds some merit. I feel my 4690k struggling a bit in the bf1 beta and its at 4.7 ghz. And isn't one of the main advantages of dx12 the ability to utilize more threads?

Id say get the 6700k if you can

All i did was change the RAM because of a combo deal with the CPU. Same speed and size.

Good choice.

Its a beta game. its going to have bugs, it may help but only time will tell.
more or less calling out other dude saying wow is a factor for buying an i7.
Which is nonsense.

In the end op should invest that money into a gpu not the cpu if hes really aiming towards bf1.

Not really aiming towards BF 1 . but i at least wanna be able to play it steady on any setting . My Superclocked 970 is just fine

4790k with a nice cooler.

Buy it second hand and you'll be gucci if you're worried about a budget
