Im going to build a computer in July for the first time. I heard the 780 ti will future proof for a long time. I chose the I5 4670k but if i put the 780 ti to a normal 780 and instead get a i7 4770k, what is better to future proof.
Im 13 and my mom wont really always say you can buy new parts so easily :) .

Yes, gtx 780ti is future proof. But if you game on 1080p and also wan't to game on same resolution in the future, then that'd just be an overkill till next year.
But it will help you in a long run. It's up to you, you can either save some money with r9 290 or future proof more with gtx 780ti.
r9 290 is also good enough.
Even from a future proof perspestive I would only but gtx 780ti if I was gaming on 1440p or higher resolution. For 1080p r9 290's future proofing is enough for me.
