Dear community members, I'am looking for your advice on a futher upgrade of my computer.
I ve a some parts in the back of my mind but iam not suggesting any because i want to know your preferences and why.
Keep in mind this a pure gaming computer and money isn't really an issue but i still want the best value for my money.
My current specs :
mobo: asus p8 z68-V GEN3
cpu: intel i5 2500k 3.3ghz
ram: 8gb corsair vengeance 1333mhz
gpu: evga gtx 580 SLI
psu: evga 1300W g2 gold
sdd/hdd/case and peripherals aren't really relevant since iam not going to upgrade them.
Now the things iam looking for :
mobo: probably need a new one to prevent bottlenecking.
cpu: new generation i7 with overclocking in mind.
--> iff iam correct you re better of with an i7 then i5 if you want to go SLI.
ram: 16 gb ddr4.
gpu: gtx 980 ti SLI (let the brand war begin) iff its all the same ill take the one from evga(habit) but iff more people suggest that i should take the msi.. well then ill change.
monitor: need a new screen, one that will melt my eyes away !! with this new setup in mind, should i go for a 4k screen or 1440p ? this part is probably going to be the hardest one to decide (for me)
Please share your wisdom and ideas thanks in advance !
