Hey guys this is my current build and I have some parts already purchased but needed some advice on a 1080p 60fps gaming pc build. Currently I have a 4690k processor which I'm not sure that I really need, because I don't think the over clock is really needed. Any recommendations on a bit cheaper processor that will run great graphics at 1080p 60fps and still be smooth without the over clock need?
