Hello everyone, i'm planning on upgrading my pc.

i'm debating whether i should buy the i5 6600k vs ryzen 5 1600.

i found a used i5 6600k for 160 euro's and a new ryzen 5 1600
i'll need a new mobo and ram for both
the thing is that i could possibly buy the ryzen but the ram will be too expensive as i'm planning to overclock.
i dont know how much and how fast ram i need for the i5 for OCing

also i have an rx470 and with this upgrade i plan to be able to play bf1 high/ultra 60fps and pubg at high 60 fps, is my card stronk enough or will i need a different one?

TL;DR don't be lazy read the post

No, it won't bottleneck that CPU.

Ideally get 16 GB of DDR4 3000 2x8GB kit, something like GSkill Ripjaws V.
