Is it worth the price difference between i5-7600k and i7-7700k using a gtx1080 or gtx1080ti with 3440x1440 resolution?
I know that with gtx1070 cpu is still important but when you go up to gtx1080 cpu won't bottleneck and the difference between those 2 CPU don't think is so relevant. Bf1 first game used.
Thanks
 
Solution
7700k + 1080ti is any day a better setup for that resolution, as games are moving towards more cores/threads and it will run smoother at higher specs.


It is also faster with a higher base clock and boost clock as well as OC leverage.

And about cooling for medium overclock, would you advice me Cryorig r1 universal or cm masterliquid 240?
