Before you start typing that there's a lot of threads about that, I just wanna say that I read almost all of them and I still can't decide.
Hi, I'm looking to upgrade my current cpu (i5-4690k) and I can't decide for which one I should go. I'm a video editor, but I still play a lot and I like to record/stream my gameplay. So I'm looking for an i7 processor and I can't decide between i7-4790k and i7-6700k. My main goal was to get a cpu that can handle recording/streaming without an fps loss. I read a lot of threads on many forums and watched few videos with comparison of those processors and all I got from it is i7-4790k is slightly worse than i7-6700k but still a good choice. But here's a thing, I'm going to have a 144Hz monitor in few days and I'm not sure if i7-4790k can provide me that high fps in games as i7-6700k.
I know that if I go for i7-6700k - I'll need to upgrade my motherboard and ram. That's affordable for me but that's the maximum of what I can spend.
So, what I wanna hear is - Will i7-6700k be a better choice for me, or i7-4790k is enough to feed my needs?
P.S.: Not sure if it's useful there, but my current gpu is R9 390 8GB.
