The 5820k has more cores which would help with virtual machines, you can also oc it for more preformance

I would normally say go for the Skylake due to the new architecture and better per core performance( which is important for gaming) but as you are running through a virtual machine I would say go for the 5820K and overclock it to 4.2 Ghz with the Nocta DH-14

Another recommendation for the 5820k. In most vm situations core count is important. It still has hyperthreading, respectable speed, can be overclocked and has twice the cache of the skylake i7 along with support for quad channel memory. Even though it's slightly older it's a more robust platform in those regards being on the x99 vs the mainstream desktop z170.
