I'm assuming he's looking to gloat. There are some odd choices in there though. Already had a 4690, and decided to buy a new CPU anyways? Already had 16GBs of ram, bought 16GBs of faster ram instead of just OCing the old stuff. (Yes, I know you needed to buy new ram because you spent all that money on a new CPU and board and your old DDR3 ram no longer fits. That's a lot of money to spend on something that doesn't really make your games go faster.) Then for some reason you decide to stick with your bronze PSU (???), GPU, drive layout, etc.) If you didn't spend all that money on CPU, board, and ram you could have upgraded your GPU. You could have bought a second SSD so your OS and games aren't taking up space on the same drive...


I am looking to future proof my computer. This is purely for gaming. I forgot to mention that sorry. :\

You've got some really highend parts there so I'm not sure why you are asking about rating your setup. But you have a lot of odd choices in there as well, more so when compared to your old setup. You spent a lot of money upgrading things that didn't really need to be upgraded.
