Hello all,
I built my computer 4 years or so ago and it is about that time to start considering upgrades.
Current Build
Intel I5 4690k
8gb G skill Sniper series ddr3 Ram
MSI - Z97-GAMING 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
R9 390 8gb video card
480gb SSD
2 other HDD's one is a 3tb one is a 1 tb
Antec - EDGE 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply
Case is an Thermaltake Core V31
I'm mostly into gaming and watching movies and it's about time to make the upgrade to at least start using DDR4.
I know 100% that I need to upgrade my Processor, Ram, and motherboard to make the Jump. I'm just looking for suggestions and if you could include a better video card in the build it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.
I also am really considering overclocking a little bit so a upgraded cooling system. Would like to keep this under $1000.
One of my biggest questions is AMD or Intel. I had a FX4300 before I had this I hated it and upgraded within a year and a half. I have been reading and seen that AMD has really stepped up their game and am wondering is it really worth it to try to go back or would it be best to stay with Intel?
In Arizona.
