Besides Overclocking, is the i7 7700K better than the 7700?

[snowiblind]

I currently have a B250 motherboard (so I can't overclock), and the 7700k and 7700 are literally the same price in my region. Besides overclocking, are there any advantages to the 7700k?

yes, the i7700k has a 600mhz increase from the 7700. Straight out of the box it's faster. That might only mean a 5% difference, but it's still a difference.

That 600Mhz increase is the main thing. Straight out of the box it's already 16.5% faster.
