Hey! I have this Asus G10AC desktop computer, and i have noticed that the processor isn't the best. I am running it with a "GTX 780" and 32GB of ram. So i am planning to upgrade to the Intel Core i7 4770K from the stock processor Intel Core i5 4670. Is this possible?

-Thanks

then it might be useful, but then the question is are you willing to pay for it?

My recommendations will be keep what you have for a few generations(as they should still do incredible fine) and then change into a newer architecture.

Yes its possible..but
1) if ur pc is mostly for gaming then no need to upgrade.
2) if u use it for video editing or some cpu based applications then maybe u should upgarde.
3) If u have z87 motherboard then only u should buy i7 4770K or else buy i7 4770.
4) If u have lots of money lying around then surely go for it, dont bother to ask around..:):):)
Hope I helped.

Your stock MOBO is H87 that means its not overclockable.If you want to upgrade to i7-4770k u should buy a z87 mobo too...but i dont understand why u need to upgrade?i5-4670 is pretty good cpu and if u are only playing games u dont need more,

Thanks for your help! So you say that i don't have to upgrade. Well the norwegian store said that if i were going to get more out of the computer, i should buy the i7 4770K. but it seems like you know more about it. :p
