i5-4670k or i7-4770k?

BF4In1080P · Apr 13, 2014

i5-4679k or i7-4770k, I will be playing DayZ and BF4, doing school work and research, If I get the i7 I will have to get the Gigabyte Z87X-SLI instead of the ASUS Maximus HERO. (Not sure if the Gigabyte one is good)

What video card will you be getting and what is the overall budget?

Gigabyte is every bit as good as Asus

CTurbo :

Didn't mention this, it's the ASUS maximus VI HERO. (Not sure if that makes a difference)

But BF4 supports AMD card, I think, so... THIS is the PC I picked,

Why did you drop down to a 270x? You said your budget was £1300 or less but that build is less than £800. That power supply is not good enough.

I'm not sure why you are wanting to stick with an AMD card when the GTX780 ot GTX780ti would be much better, but here you go

Lol... pre-built gaming PCs suck and have low quality PSUs a lot of the time.

LOL! I picked EVERYTHING so it's just as good as me building it myself.

The 290x would be better than the 780. This build I must say I do like.
