In my country R7 1700 and R5 2600 are going for the same price. I know that the R5 has higher boost clock but the R7 comes with a better stock cooler.
I plan on overclocking though.
My priorities are gaming and video editing btw.
So, basically the above two mentioned combinations cost nearly the same in my country. I'm on a strict budget and would like to know about the better choice out of these two. My priorities are gaming and streaming also with a bit of video editing.
