6700 i7 vs 1600 ryzen

[tim.ladinek]

Hello everyone , im new to this forums.

So the thing is , atm im using a 6100 i3 cpu and i wanna upgrade it since when destiny 2 launches on pc i wanna play it , while streaming or recording for youtube and i know the i3 will have trouble doing that , so i wanna upgade. Nowi have 2 options , either get the 6700k for 330€ and put it the existing mobo , but i cant overlock it , or get the ryzen 1600 with a new mobo for 3€ less and i can overlock it. Which is the best choice?

Thanks.

That's my beef when MoBo cost gets involved in these comparisons ... the argument for using a cheap MoBo fails when you look at the low budget on board componentry. I really don't want a gaming system that sticks me with ALC887 or ALC892. By the time you move up the price ladder to ALC1220 and a decent LAN, you are in Z270 territory.
