What do you guys think of this build?

I already have one 970, a 3tb HD and a 4k display. I am hoping these additional parts take care of the rest.

Some issues.

Get a 4790k not the 4770k.

Change the cooler to a Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO. Same performance, cheaper, quieter.

PSU is junk. Stay away from Corsair for the time being. Get a 750w unit from Antec, XFX, Seasonic.

I would REALLY recommend Windows 8.1.

Otherwise the SLI907s will definitely play games at 4k at high settings.

I never recommended a build. So no that is what what I am saying. I was merely giving suggestions on the build he posted.

The build you posted is definitely a solid choice for sure. I would change the board and case though.

Thanks for the advice!

Could you sell me a bit more on upgrading to Windows 8.1? I reluctant to upgrade because my games run so well on 7.

The case I recommend is the Fractal Design R4. That Motherboard is what I would go with. I personally prefer MSI boards, but people seem ignorant and STILL believe that they have some mysterious quality problems that were resolved over 4 years ago so I avoid recommending them because people like to get high and mighty over it. But if I was building this for me I would use an MSI Z97 GAMING 5.

They will run better on 8.1. Simply a fact. Basically everything ruins better on 8.1 and it is a MUCH faster OS in general.
