Give this a look
You can take out the SSD if you already have one and invest into a bigger hdd
An obvious thing you can do to raise your budget up to $1000 would be to sell the replaced parts




 
Well... what do you want to upgrade?

The system you have listed is near-identical to my old system, right down to the chipset. I went from AMD > Intel and 760 > 970.

I suppose the question is, do you want to change your motherboard or keep it?
 


Careful. We don't know his motherboard. Not all 760g boards have support for the 8350.
 

Supposing his 760g mobo does work with the 8350 -.-
The OP can go intel with a z97 mobo, a i5 4690k and a 970 and upgrade ram to 16gb by selling the replaced parts
 


Supposing his 760 mobo does work the 8350... he should go to Z97 anyway? Did you mean doesn't? Not that it'd be a bad idea to change boards, but I'm having trouble understanding your suggestion.
 


I recommend the upgrades I suggested to him if his motherboard supports it
If OP would mention the model of the motherboard, then we could find out if the 8350 works
You understood me wrong
I meant to say, if the OP's mobo does not support the 8350 or 8320, then he should swap to a z97 mobo and get the i5 4690k and 970. He could then upgrade to 16GB of RAM if he sells all the replaced parts
Get me?
 


I get you. Now, I get you. That is a very valid suggestion. You just used does where you should have used doesn't, and that confused me.
