Hello! I am currently looking for a new gaming computer that will work with most games for a few years atleast. I have 2 pc's I'm choosing between, but I need help. Computer 1 has a i7 6700 3,4 ghz with a GTX 1080 8 gb, computer 2 has a i7 6700k 4 ghz with a GTX 1070 8gb.
Which computer would be smarter to choose for gaming?

It depends on the types of games you will play.

Some games are graphics limited like fast action shooters.
For those, pick the one with the stronger GTX1080.

Others are cpu core speed limited like strategy, sims, and mmo.
For those, pick the higher clocked I7-6700K and overclock it a bit more.
