i7 6700 vs i7 6700k

[simon22]

Hello,i wanna buy new CPU and i dont know which one i should take,i7 6700 is 50$ cheaper than k,alot people told me the difference is only overclocking,im not planning to OC,so i want to know if its some difference in games,thanks to everyone and sorry for my poor english

They were right! 'K' version have unlocked multipliers. Non-K version have locked multipliers. No OC means no difference.

Well the 6700 has a much lower operating frequency with a slightly lower boost clock.
As long as you keep turbo boost on you should see no reasonable performance difference between the two. If you dont plan on OCing, save the money.

In my opinion the 50$ are worth, there is some noticeable difference between the k and non k version (depends on the overclock). Either way you can check for some info about overclocking in youtube and you should be good to go.
I recommend the k version.
