Help me choose which build for VR

[Nick Powell]

Below are two potential builds for my new PC, which will solely be used for the Oculus Rift headset. I'm having trouble choosing which one and if there may be any hidden advantages I'm unaware of as a newbie in this area. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

BUILD 1:
- i5 6500
- Gigabyte H170N WIFI
- Gigabyte GTX 980 WINDFORCE
- Corsair Vengeance 16GB DDR4 2666
- Corsair Force LS 60GB SSD
- Western Digital Blue 500GB 7200RPM HDD
TOTAL COST = $1,363 AUD (bundled CPU and Motherboard)

BUILD 2:
- i5 6600k
- Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI
- Gigabyte GTX 980 WINDFORCE
- G.Skill Ripjaws 16GB DDR4 2800
- Corsair Force LS 60GB SSD
- Western Digital Blue 500GB 7200RPM HDD
TOTAL COST = $1,452 AUD (bundled CPU, Motherboard and RAM)

I already have a case and PSU ready to be used. Thank you in advance!

It doesn't make a whole difrence but the second one is better

The second is worth the extra money because the 6600K is skylake and has a bigger cache
