/g/ I need help here's my current setup
>Asrock z77 extreme 4-m
>i3 3220
>gtx 760
>8gb of 1866mhz ram
>h 212 evo CPU fan
I'm planning on upgrading my CPU and GPU
Should i get an i5 3570k (not 100% sure if my mobo can over clock)
Or should I get a new mobo with an i5 6600k and get 8gb of ddr4 ram or would that be a lot of extra cost for not much performance increase?
I haven't decided on the GPU yet but I want to game at either 1080p 120hz or 1440p at 60hz
Wait for the Rx 480

What about the CPU?
>>54978273
buy 3570k they are really good deal right now:

okay nathan. thanks for the address btw.

>>54978288
and yes it can overclock, you should be able to get 4.4ghz no problem
>>54978090
You need a new case. Here you go.
>>54978090
wait until the 480 drops if you can, and either buy that or buy someone's used 380/380x/390/390x/970
>>54978356
My actually case isn't much better.
Got it on sale when it was the cheapest case I could find with a window and cable management space
>>54978288
Should I trust this guy or is he trying to sell his CPU? I'm in Ireland anyway and would rather buy from somewhere closer
>>54978436
Don't buy if you're in Ireland, find one close to you so shipping times don't rape you
>>54978388
Wouldn't you need something more powerful for 1440p 60 fps/1080 at 120fps?

>>54978534
In that case hopefully the 1080 or 1080 ti can do 1440p at 120hz in which case I'll get one of them
>>54978714
yes you could very well do that, but in the meantime just buy a 970 with a transferable warranty and then sell it when you want the 1080ti after it's release. 1440p 120hz with freesync or gsync is going to be very cost prohibitive, and I don't mean any offense by it but this is for someone whose build was an i3 3220 and a gtx 760...
>>54978798
My previous build was my poorfag build but my budget is quite a bit larger this time round. I guess time will tell and we'll have to see how the cards perform once they are properly released
