Looking to build an i7 gaming system

[Mike1382234]

I'm looking to build an i7 system to replace my current system.. (i54790k and Gtx 1070) preferably red and black themed as i don't want to replace my sleeved cables and fans that i have recently purchased i will be using the system for gaming and would be looking for something that i will not need to upgrade for a while and that doesn't cost a heap of money,Thanks in advance for any replies.

Components i need: Motherboard, Ram, CPU

Huh?
The best you can do is an i7-7700K setup, but it's not going to be much different for gaming than what you currently have.

If you sold what you had, and replace it you'd probably lose $500 to $800 (rough guess) and all you really get is better aesthetics if you like the look of the new PC better.

Your money could be far better spent somewhere else. For example, a GSYNC monitor if you don't have a great monitor already.

For example: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/XvfmP6/asus-monitor-pg279q

or ultrawide: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/WDcMnQ/acer-monitor-umcx1aa002

If you still want to BUILD something just use pcpartpicker as you can find the color scheme you want easily.

Other:
You said "i54790K" but is that an i5-4690K or an i7-4790K? (not sure if you have an i7 CPU or not, though you could just buy one and swap it in).
