I send it on PM maybe then you can open it
The two issues I would think about are....
Will the memory be compatible?
....and are you getting a price break by buying the kit?

If they were smart enough to include memory that's on the motherboard's QVL list that would be great.

Although if you aren't going to save much money by buying the kit....you might be better off buying the items separately yourself.

if i buy them separately this would be it.

Motherboard : https://www.alternate.nl/html/product/1471762
CPU : https://www.alternate.nl/html/product/1553392
Ram : https://www.alternate.nl/ADATA/ADAT...XPG-D60-gy-werkgeheugen/html/product/1609118?
and that in total would be 380 eu.
But i myself dont know if this is worth upgrading to or should i save and upgrade to something better to actually make a big impact on my performance.

Well the new CPU is more than twice as fast....plus it has 2 more cores....so that is pretty significant.

See here. ...and the new CPU would be able to run higher end new GPUS....where the 4790K won't be able to.

Thats looking nice then it would be worth it get the upgrade kit it also cheaper then buying it separately
