hi guys, need a little help.
currently i'm using i3-8100 on a gigabyte B360 (8th gen only). i want to upgrade my processor. what should the upgrade be? i7 7700k(2nd hand) or i5 8600k(new)? i can get them at same price. if i go for 8600k, it shall be just an easy upgrade coz my mobo supports 8th gen. and then i can sell my 8100. but if i go for 7700k then i gotta sell my cpu and mobo too and then again gotta buy a 7th gen mobo which is a p@in in th3 a$$. sorry for my language but i'm really disappointed with my running cpu and confused which one to buy. i saw benchmarks on youtube and saw that stock i7-7700k beats i5-8400 in almost every game and i5-8600k performs almost same as stock i7-7700k and even better in some games. plz help me. oh and one more thing, even if i buy either one, i'm not gonna overclock them so i'm good with b360-like mid-range mobo's so plz don't tell me to go for a non-K processor or high-end mobo's. it just looks so cool when saying "I have 4790K or 7700K or 8600K or 8700K"
