So currently the i7 6700k is the latest intel offering, with recent price cuts the i7 5820k is now at almost the same price point with the skylake chip. Even motherboard prices of x99 boards similar to mid and high end z series boards and both using the same type of RAM (differen't channels though). So the question is if you were to get a system today and was going to get either of these, which one would it be? and also why?
Obviously the choice would be based on what you're planning to do with the rig so points are what are the differences between them in all these categories :
>Single gpu setup
>Dual/Multi gpu setup
>Multitasking usefullness
>Rendering capacity/passmark scores
>Gaming performance and benchmarks
>Overclocking Potential
>Power Consumption
So how do each of these cards fare in them, and also which one would you personally prefer over the other for your use?
