I'm trying to decide what I should upgrade my system to in the next little bit, with Black Friday sales coming up etc. I want to get more into streaming while I game, as well as more intense CAD/Rendering projects. (Engineering applications, as well as the odd video)

I'm curious to see what your thoughts are on the i7-6700k vs. the i7-6800k, and the pros/cons of each in each scenario. Also if you've got recommendations for motherboards and RAM, I'd like to hear those too, as I haven't decided yet.

Rest of my system will be:
2x MSI GTX 970 4GD5T OC (SLI)
256gb Samsung 850 EVO
480gb ADATA SP550
2x 2TB Seagate Barracuda
Corsair H100i 240mm AIO
Corsair AX760 Platinum PSU
NZXT H440

In all situations the 6800k will do better, especially if you will be doing game and steaming together. As far as motherboard suggestions I personally use the z170 asus-A with 3000hz lpx ram and I enjoy them put together ( The white theme is what sold me)
