    Z97 vs Z87 - Budget build

    If you want full support for broadwell, SATA-E and M.2, feel free to buy a Z97 board. However, the 4690k is a haswell refresh CPU, and Z87 does not support these chips without a BIOS update.

    4th Core i5 4670K Motherboard

    Any Z87 or Z87 chipset motherboards will allow this CPU if you want to overclock. You have a $600 for the motherboard? or for the whole system? It really depends what features you want. Take a look at these: http://pcpartpicker.com/part/asus-motherboard-z97a...

    Looking for a new graphic card

    I recommend the GTX 970, it is very powerful and can most games at >60 FPS at 1440p, and has plenty of VRAM for the multiple screens. You could get one of many after-market coolers, so choosing one can be a pain. I recommenced the following...

    Which of these headsets would you rank as " the best "?

    I wouldn't recommend the Logitech headsets, I had a g430, the surround sound is made by an external USB adaptor, so it doesn't plug into the audio jacks, and mine broke after about a year-ish of use (the adaptor). The mic also suffered from problems if the adapter was not plugged in. (including...
