good evening all

i'm build pc for :
gaming 45%
watching HD movie & youtube 45%
internet download 10%

here's my questions :
- for next gen gaming pc which one better : i7 4770k(4 cores) / i5 4670k (4 cores) / fx 8350 (8 cores) ???

- in my country is hard to find any r9 270x/280x/290/290x & gtx 780 (just pass the ti, coz too expensive for my budget) only gtx 760/770 & r9 270 below 2gb/4gb stock available & easy to find, are they good for next gen or should i wait till the shop in my country available/restock (maybe 1 month or 2 months or more...not sure...this is the answer i got from the shopkeeper) ???

- i found that a lot of people in tom's hardware suggest i5 4670k & a lot of them also said that most new games are started using 8 cores ,i like playing single games(offline) what processor are the best for me ???

- this is my planning spec
~i5 4670k
~gigabyte g1 sniper z87(newest & best audio built in)
~patriot 2x4 1866mhz
~msi gtx 780 twin frozr(cheapest brend in my country)
~adata sp900 64gb ssd
~seagate 2tb
~seasonic G-650 650w modular
~nzxt kraken x40
~nzxt phantom 410
~oblanc nc2-4 ufo 5.1 headset
~aoc i2367fh
1.what do you guys think/opinion ???
2.psu 650w enough ???
3.adata sp900 64gb ssd worth it ???
4.aoc i2367fh ah-ips or look another TN panel & fast response is good for my spec ???

If you have the budget, go with a i7 4770k as it will demolish the i5 in non-gaming applications. I wouldn't go with the 8350 because they tend to run a bit hot, plus I just like Intel, but The rest of your budget looks fine, but id go with a larger PSU if possible for future upgrades to come. Never know if you'll want to SLI down the road.
 
I would go with the I5 4670K it wins most comparisons with the FX8350 and the I7 4770K has marginally better performance in gaming and your other uses but for too high a price premium. IF you were doing 3d work and rendering/editing then the I7 would kick in. It is going to be years until 8 cores will be a big advantage in gaming by then current AMD offerings will be obsolete.

All your question!
1 Great rig
2Quality Seasonic YES!
3YES for OS only but would try for 120-28GB
4No comment I will have to physically look at a monitor to comment on it.

I wouldnt go with fx 8350 because it runs so hot and core for core isnt as good as the intel i5 and i7. the choice goes down to do you want to do video editing and that sort of thing because the i7 easily wins but no games take advantage of the hyperthreading in it though this will future proof it for years so if you want future proofing and to do editing the i7 easilly wins but if not the i5 should do you. also the PSU will do this build fine BUT not much room for upgrades . the moniter looks good but you might want a faster refresh rate though this wont make to much differance. you might think of a bigger ssd too

hope this is useful

760 SLI is worth it if you have the room and air flow inside your case. If you SLI 2 760's you'll be up there in performance with the 780 but i ALWAYS recommend you get the single most powerful card that you can afford because then if you feel the need to SLI, you can SLI a more powerful card and get even more performance. If you SLI 2 760's and decide to throw another in the mix to Tri-SLI, it will not scale as well as the 780's in SLI. From personal experience it's always better to go with a single powerful card and then go from there. Some people go for SLI just because it looks nice, unless you have a specific reason to go for the 760 SLI rather than the single 780, I'd go with one 780 or 780ti.

GTX770 and R9 280X would be good for 1080P.

For gaming the i5-4670K http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00CO8TBOW is definitely the best choice and I agree with rolli, the 770 and R9 280X are great for 1080p.

Personally, I have the MSI R9 280X Gaming http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FR6XPL8 and it easily plays BF4 at ultra settings. Another reason the 280X is my preference is the 3GB VRAM vs the 2GB from the 770. The 4GB 770 is pointless to consider since it has a decreased bus compared to the 280X and can't even utilize 4GB VRAM.

i'm the opposite because of shadowplay which is great for saving funny or cool moments look at it if you dont know it, the 770 would be fine but the 780 would keep you playing 1080p for a long time just to think about maybe

Shadowplay is only worth having if you record gameplay which the majority of users don't. It is a cool feature though.

if you play games like BF4 it's still good for saving non repleyable moments I have only in the last 2 weeks started uploading to youtube but I still used it a lot. how many times have you turned off fraps to then get the best kill strike ever or see the greatest glitch
