6900k dont have much difference than the 7700k in gaming , if you want more cores you can go Ryzen build ( and with extra cash you can buy a 1440p 144hz monitor if you dont own one)

i guess it would be better getting quad core processor like ryzen 5 1400, or the i7-7700k if you want to get such high clock by overclocking, 8 cores is kinda overpowered if you only do gaming, but if you do content creating getting 8 cores processor is beneficial(get the ryzen 1700 if you want to, 6900k is too expensive). also dont get 32gb if you only do gaming, 16gb is enough, except if you do some works that need a lot of ram 32gb is useful. overclocking the components can save you some money, so do it if you can or if you want to

why prefer intel more? fanboy or what? in terms of gaming, cpu that have like more than 4 cores doenst really have like big performance difference, some few games will probably need but only really few. also ryzen price is cheaper with more cores compared to current intel processor

it can be done by overclocking, what really important when buying graphics card is the how well the cooler does it job, warranty, price, aesthetic if you into those thing
