    Looking for high performance max fps

    If you got the money to spend i would recommend going with a "Asus Maximus VII Formula" motherboard, along with an "Intel i7 4790k" cpu. You could argue with going for the "Intel i7 4960x", but the performance difference vs the price increase is for most people not worth it.

    uninstalling CPU cooler - Backplate

    If its just mere tape thats holding it, then there shouldn't be any need for tools or chemicals to remove it. Just gently nudge it off starting in 1 corner. (if you are super confident about being steady on your hands, and can garantee yourself that you won't let it touch the motherboard, then...
