Now which one to go for. Searching around, there are surprisingly few (almost nonexistent) comparisons of i7 8700. But for the large part, I think thats due to it being priced way costlier than the 8600K in most countries (~$60 in US). At that price difference, they can easily get the very best CPU coolers (Noctua NH-D15 can be had for ~$80), OC their 8600K to 5GHz, and see better gaming performances than the 8700. For us here in India, its not nearly as easy since CPU coolers cost twice as much.
Here's one benchmark I was able to find on YouTube with all processors compared.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjSvays_VTI
At stock speeds, the 8700 definitely beats the 8600K in gaming. 5GHz OC could see the 8600K creep above, but then the 8700 will rise on top again in games where multiple cores are better used. Also, to boost the performance of 8700, some people have found a 'soft overclocking' method which basically makes all of 8700's cores run at 4.6 GHz turbo (this is possible with Z370 motherboards).
Basically what you get with 8700 is great performance out of the box compared to the 8600K. No need to worry about overclocking. No need to worry about aftermarket cooling. On the other hand, with the 8600K you get potential to achieve amazing single core performance (when oc'ed to 5GHz), but if you have never done an OC before, I can tell you from personal experience that its a long and tedious process, with a lot of hours of testing that you have to do to confirm that your overclock is stable. If you intend to do only a mild OC, then you'll probably just end up matching the 8700 in performance.
Thats my take on it. Conclusion: 8600K is worth it if you plan to provide good cooling, take the clocks up high, and get better performance. If budget will not allow you to do so, then 8700 will put you in a more than comfortable space, for lesser price and less hassle too.

Though, at £54, it's a highly sub par cooler.
Here's one of the best air coolers on the market, for the same price.
Or, if you don't want to spend as much, the H7s bigger brother for £40.

> Is there a good resource to look at comparing overclocking potential of air vs. water based systems? I found it hard to find.
You can look at his review of the CRYORIG H5 Universal, where its compared to a lot of other coolers:
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/CRYORIG/H5_Universal/6.html
I just noticed the H7 is overpriced in the UK, I would just go with the H5 instead:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cryorig-H5-Universal-processor-cooler/dp/B00MBTOY2S
Total was around $2200 when I got it all, it was during cyber Monday so it was all on sale.

Is the one you are talking about right?
I have heard some good things about the hyper 212.
basically the budget is around£70.
is this the cryorig h5?

Damn lucky you are...
Well, I've read stuff about how the stock AMD Ryzen coolers aren't exactly for overclocking on heavy loads, so I'm genuinely concerned...
If you do want to give something, and if you also get discounts on Cryorig coolers, I would suggest this Cryorig.
But then again, you're the one that knows about this stuff so yeah, choose whatever you think is good. And again, do not spend too much on me, then I'll end up feeling guilty. Thanks for considering to do this man, it really does mean a lot.
I would use something like this
Or the Noctua NH-u12s
The CPU cooler you are wanting to buy is out of stock, I would say switch to the H5 and buy it on the 13th April when it comes in stock at Amazon - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cryorig-H5-Universal-processor-cooler/dp/B00MBTOY2S
Why not buy from here? Or local market?

What CPU you have?
