Looking to upgrade / Possible issues with CPU

[a.haggerty1989]

Hi all,

I'm looking to upgrade my PC soon as I believe my CPU is on it's way out... essentially it turns off and on repeatedly until eventually it stay on. I've tried a fair few things to fix it and it's apparently an issues that's known with my CPU.

I have a between £3-600 to spend on upgrades however I'm not to fussed if it's worthwhile waiting for some new deals etc as I can put up with the rather long boot up at the moment as it still runs everything I need perfectly fine.

Any recommendations on what I should upgrade as a priority would be great and if there are any deals out there or components that work well with my setup would be appreciated.

Memory - HyperX Savage 16GB (2 x 8 GB) 2400 MHz DDR3 CL11 DIMM XMP Memory Module
CPU - Intel i7 -4790K 4.00GHz 8MB S1150 'Devils Canyon'
Case - Corsair Graphite 760T Full Tower
PSU - Corsair RM 850W Fully Mod
GPU - EVGA GTX 780 Ti SC ACX 3GB GDDR5 Dual DVI
Cooler - Corsair Hydro Series H110 CPU Cooler
HDD - Seagate 600 Series 480GB Sata-3 SSD

Many thanks in advance,

Hey,

It's predominately gaming. I'm not playing anything to intensive at the moment though. WOW, League some indie games that are mostly 2D etc... few action adventures.

I'd say wait at least until the meltdown patches come out.
