For basic use? i5-8400 or even i3 8100

8700k doesn't come with cooler

Go for non k.

The speed increase from going k is substantial. However the cost of going k is substantial also due to motherboard.

Are you referring to the stock performance of k is significantly more than the non k?

if you need to touch anything that needs avx, can go for the K model bah 'cause it is 500mhz faster than the nonK at stock

Get the K if you are Singaporean, because Singaporeans love to kena chop carrot

Gaming only, the i5 8400 is a much better choice.

Hmm... Let me look into i5.

But why 8400 and not the 8500 or 8600?

Feel free to go for 8500/8600 if the price difference isn't crazy. As long as you don't pay more then 30 bucks over the 8400, it's worth it as the difference between them is just a mere extra 200-400mhz clock speed.

If you intend to buy an locked i5 8400, do consider the r5 2600x.
