Well,

I just got my marks list or something ( something where the results from my exams are on ) and my parents were very happy with my results.
I've been planning on buying these components. I have the money and I really want to know how I should ask my parents. I already got my PSU, GPU, HDD and Ram in my current PC but I really need a new CPU to pull the GTX 770 so thats why I'm going to get a 3770k. It's also almost christmas so I'd like to know some good ways to ask my parents. :)

Kind regards,
Ruben

I say just tell them what you want to do. If they are happy with how you have been doing and its your money you are spending they shouldnt have a problem with it. If you need arguments you should explain how the current processor is holding your computer back and how the i7 well allow you to be more productive since it has hyper threading.

Then again I'm assuming you have an i3 or i5 and that your parents aren't penny pinchers.

Then its an even greater reason to upgrade! If you haven't asked yet, the christmas spirit today might put them in a better mood with it :)

Show them your processor you have right now or the one your buying. I feel like this is the easiest way for someone who doesn't have experience in computers will understand.

For example, my old pc was Intel Core i5 650 3.20ghz and on that site its performance is 3,143. While my new processor the i7-4770K 3.50ghz is 10,209. Thats over 200% increase if u put it that way.
