Hello, im upgrading my CPU, atm I have an i5-760 which is pretty old and its time to change it. My needs are for gaming, and so I saw i7-7700K or R7 1700. I wonder if the i7-7700K would be good in 2017 with only 4 cores (vs 8 similar IPC cores) because its for a long time, as you see Im still with an i5-760. So what you guys think?
