Solution


The GPU he is asking you to get is quite a bit better(And quite a bit more expensive). But the CPU is not better than yours, your's has more cores, more threads, more cache and is just all around better than that Haswell(Hotwell hehe). But a 780(Ti) would be a good choice if you can afford it, or just SLI 2 770's.


Gaming, Video Editing, game development, game play recording but mostly heavy gaming
 


i d prefer i7 4770 and GTX 780
 
For the SSD are you saying use it for everything or just for something like the OS
because with recording and gaming and such the SSD will get torn up (Some guy said with recording I will tear up an SSD and make it slower) I also don't think I might be able to afford it.
 


I am sticking to saying get an SSD, at least a 120GB for the OS and commonly used programs/games.
 


Would you prefer because of money (is it cheaper or somthing?) or better performance? I just want to hear your opinion please.

tests show that 6 core/12 thread processors of Intel ,like that one, make no difference in gaming , compared to i7 4770
 


Okay I'll look into. Thanks for the response.
 


If possible could you give me some reasons to why its better?
 


So when you say it has a higher stock core that is the same as how fast the core right? sorry im new to this
 


Okay thanks good to know (I knew the faster the better though 😀) Okay one more thing if its better why is it cheaper? lol
 
You are paying for the EVGA name, and Zotac has been known to be a bit more bang for your buck sort of company, while EVGA likes to OC their cards a bit more each time and jack up the price and throw a fancy paintjob/stickers on the card. Haha, but the Zotac is a great card, get a nice PSU and maybe one day you can add another 770 and SLI, then you will be faster than a GTX Titan/780Ti.
 


Faster you say.... lol thanks for the info i'm gonna go change the info on the specs
thanks again for the info
