    Need Advice for New System Build

    Yes I checked out the R9 270x after you suggested it and it beats the GTX 750ti in raw performance. And the corsair cx500v2 is available locally around 70 USD approximately. But if I get the corsair one then the budget for the graphics card suffers. But then again a good psu is like a good...

    New 1080p MMO gaming, first build in several years

    There was a bios problem where the MSI gaming 5 mobo refused to accept the i7-4790k as it was a haswell refresh gen cpu. But that was back in 2014 when the haswell refresh was newly released.

    New 1080p MMO gaming, first build in several years

    Everything looks good and the combination has great performance/price ratio. The k series with Z97 chipset is needed for overclocking and MSI is a good enough brand.
