Yes, with just a bit more you have a Ryzen 2700 which has 8 cores and performs extremely well in gaming, better overall than 8600k.

Ok brill sounds good il guess il purchase that then. how about the GPU?
 


That's misinformation.

The 8600K outperforms the 2700X almost across the board in gaming.

I would hope the 8600k outperforms a 2700k. That is a very old CPU. :p

The 2700x is a better overall CPU. Given the graphics card used, I would hope the OP is running 1440p, or 4k, in which the gaming difference would be unnoticeable to anyone not looking at an FPS meter.
 


You know what I ment, was a type-O
