I am planning to upgrade my 2014 gig so that it be able to play 2017-18 games (and vr games) at max settings, but i don't really know which component i should upgrade first and what should i buy?
Do i need to upgrade my cpu or is 5930k enough to run the games?

And should i buy the components during black friday sale or christmas sales?
 

Try this and see: http://www.coolermaster.com/power-supply-calculator/
 


It should be enough, according to the calc. It says i would use up 753w. Btw, do u know if black fri be cheaper or christmas for graphic cards. I live in toronto,so it should be aome what same as us.

 

Black Friday in our country isnt that special so its hard to say.
 
Thank you

I check the sitebyou provided. After oc the graphic card, it change to 875w. Would that put too much stress on the power supply unit?
 

No, you will be fine
