Need something that will pair with an intel core i7 4790k

[matt_ice4]

As seen in the title, I'm looking for a gpu that pairs good with the 4790k. This is my first build and I'm new to the pc world. I'm also looking into streaming my games, but I'm gonna wait till i get good first. lol

If you want advice, you're going to have to be a lot more specific.

What parts do you have already?
What is your budget?
What monitor will you be using?

Get the best GPU you can afford, you won't be bottlenecked.

All GPUs will pair with the i7 4790K. For 1080p, 60Hz a GTX 970 or Radeon 390 do the business. What is your budget. (however much, you probably need more )

So far this is what i have, the gpu that i have in this build and I'm still questioning it. Ive just been trying to read about all different types of gpu's and id say that my price range would be about $250-$300 for a solid gpu. Thank you for responding.

Monitors starting out ill probably go with 60hz or if i can find any other ones that are a lot better but cheaper

Don't need liquid. I got to 4.7Ghz on the cooler
2400 Mhz memory will run and give you some more speed.
Upgraded the GPU.
That PSU is very good and powerful enough.

I shouldn't be replying to a question already solved, but if you're building a computer, and you're looking for a gaming processor, the first thing you should always know is that a solid, unlocked i5 will run anything from the crappy 4600 HD graphics on your 4790k to a Titan Z (hint hint the 4690k). If you're just gaming, which it looks like you are, the 4790k will pair well with any graphics card. CPU + GPU isn't a situation where it's like "This game runs better with NVIDIA GPUs because the game supports PhysX", any AMD or NVIDIA GPU runs fine without bottlenecks on a 4690k, let alone 4790k. And also while I'm talking about this subject, an AMD GPU won't do any better on an AMD CPU that performs the same as an Intel CPU. So buy your GPU based on what games you're playing, what settings you're playing at, what resolution you're playing at, if you're gonna use virtual reality (rich enthusiasts only), and what framerates you expect. Hope that helped
