Building a pc soon. I do video editing and photoshop quite frequently, which is why the i7 would be more suitable. However, I have a limit on how much I want to pay, so having the i7 and GTX 770 is too much. I also do a lot of pc gaming, which is why I'm taking into consideration the GTX 770 with i5.

It would be great if anyone could suggest which I should go with. Also, I plan to be playing some of the high graphical demanding games, such as Assassin's Creed Unity, when it is released, and the Battlefield series.

Thanks.

Which one is more important to you? Gaming or video editing/photoshop?

Hmm, well as I'm starting college this year, the i7 would be usefull for my studies such as graphic art, and I've also heard that it will help with live streaming games, which I also like doing. I just hope that the 760 wont disappoint when new games are released.

Well - then you have it. I7 is the better choice if you work on large sized documents. Something like 8k by 6k images (like B2/B1 sizes or A1 sizes and etc.)

i5 4th gen is needed at least for a 770 so if you're gaming 770+i5 4th for editing the 760 will do the work with an i7
