I am looking to do a major upgrade of my PC in the next few weeks, the itch is now too bad to not scratch!
What I can't decide is which CPU to choose. I primarily use my PC for gaming but do work from home a lot and use it as a workstation running VMs and having multiple windows open to other PCs via Remote Desktop or TeamViewer.
I have been thrown between the 6700k and the 5820k for a couple of weeks now and want Techspots opinions. If I was to go the 5820k route I would follow very similar lines to Techspots luxury PC building guide from last November. If I was to take the 6700k route I would get a Z170 mobo. It's worth pointing out in the UK at the moment the prices between these two are negligible.
EDIT: forgot to mention, initially I will be running a single 980ti with a 1440p monitor. I would like the option to add another 980ti to go SLI though and I will be using the Samsung 950 m.2.
Thanks in advance.
