What CPU for gaming and editing

[incsrn]

Hey

I would like to get some advice about what CPU I should get for a gaming and editing setup. Im looking at 8700k 8086k 9700k 9900k. Can I have a few opinions? I have a budget of 3-5k alone for the rig itself.

If your budget is that high might as well go with the i9-9900K.

Thanks for the reply, I forgot to mention AUD currency. What if I had 2-3k in USD? Thoughts?

Personally i won't go 9900k.I just don't see the value in it.I would go if i was a gamer 8700k or productivity + gaming 2700x.Here the 9900k are almost double the price of the 2700x which makes it the worst price to performance built.But if you can afford it and can get proper cooler(She runs very hot)Then go for it just me personally won't go the 99xx route.
