Hi guys I'm thinking of retiring my old i5 3570k and Asus maximus v formula (Crap) motherboard, after a windows 10 format the Asus AI suite is no longer supported and my main bios settings for overclocking are missing from the bios, tried a few bios's no luck there (a problem more people have had on the ROG forum with no solution) so with my i5 back at stock/turbo 3.4/3.8 it's a waste of my water cooling, and no support for two 980's on the board it's basically due a change.
Totally out of touch with all the CPU's out there now, haswell, broadwell, skylake, sandy... this 6700 is the new one right? will that be more than enough so there's no bottle necking on high end graphics cards like the 1080, I'm running a gtx980 at present, the main use of the pc is for gaming, but i have started doing a bit of gopro video editing now so if a certain CPU/RAM combo would be better for both speeding up the conversion/export processes i'd go for that.
My 3570k is under a Alphacool cpu water block too if i had to buy a new CPU block that's not really a problem.
