1 year agoI think you need to check out a few more benchmarking results than passmark. Check this out:
Look at that 7700 non-K , 26W lower power use and within 10% performance on professional video use cases like yours vs the 7700k. Plus the quicksync update like others pointed out. What’s the used price in your market like?
Oh snap yea, sorry I focused on the 7700k vs 6700k when I viewed the sheet. For my money the 7700 wins out. Cheaper price, 65w vs 91w, benchmarks showing comparable performance. In any case I’m sure you’ll be happy either way.
The caveat being if you even planned on tinkering with an overclock. But if you are power cost sensitive I think you probably aren’t interested.
