What's Better? The A10-5800K or A8-6600K

I want to build a gaming computer and I was wondering which of these two CPUs is best. There is a ten dollar price difference between the two (the 5800K is more expensive), and I plan on using this computer to play games (like Killing Floor, Orion: Dino Horde, Nether, and The Forest) and edit gameplay videos in a program called VideoPad.

However, I also want to be able to upgrade to a better graphics card in the future (specifically the R9 270X or something similar). So, which one is better for me is based on three main points: CPU power for video editing, gaming power, and the amount of bottleneck it has with another video card. So far, I haven't dug up much information about these points and the differences between the processors, or if any differences are just negligible. Thanks for your help!
 
Solution
Its up to you. I'm looking at performance, not price. Price varies from place to place and time to time. Just get whatever you can get for the best price.

And last I heard 110 -90 = 20, not 10

Ok, by the way, thanks for the tip, I did find it even cheaper on Amazon.
