Should I trade 6900k for a 6850k

I just realized that my rampage V 10th board doesn't support m.2 or pcie raid as a bootable drive, I thought i would need the extra cpu power for Samsung 950 pro raid 0. It also seems the 6850 might have better overall gaming performance.

It has M.2 support?

Yeah it has for 1 drive only but not for raid mode. I decided to order an intel 750 1.2 tb from microcenter since it was only $700.

Well while playing the division and downloading a torrent i go over 60% cpu usage sometimes may just stay with 8 core.

I have the intel 750 installed but it seems to force my gpus into 16/8 mode and have noticed a small hit in fps while playing the division in 1440p 165 hz.

it will drop GPU's down hence the U.2 slot uses pcie lanes. ( as stated in manual )
