Hello all.

Im in doubt with this two builds:

I5 8600K + cryorig h5
Asrock z370 extreme 4
2x8GB DDR4 3200 CL16

I7 8700 + cryorig h5
MSI B360M PRO-VDH
2x8 DDR4 3200 CL16 (less cost than 2666 ones)

The price difference is about 60€ more i5 8600K build. Will be paired with Gigabyte GTX 1060 G1 6gb, thinking on upgrading to 1070ti or 1080 in the future.

My plan is to keep processor as long as possible before upgrading again. There is an advantage too picking i5 8600K with Z370 board so RAM modules will be running at 3200mhz. And if I choose i5 8600K, gonna be my first OC and my plan is to get atleast 5ghz.

Im gonna be playing mainly at 1080@144hz until can.

What do you recommend me? Thanks and sorry for my english :)
 
If your just chilling wanting to play games at high settings then go with the i5 8600k however if your looking to stream aswell then i would go for the 8700. Instead with the 60 you saved can go on a game for instance or something else of the kind.
