Hi-I"m thinking about upgrading my gaming PC that i built back in January. Right now I have a a10 6800k paired with a radeon hd 6670 in hybrid crossfire, an ecs a75- f2-a2 mobo, 4gb of Crucial Ballistix Sport 1600 Mhz dual channel, a wd caviar blue 1tb, nzxt source 210 and corsair cx430m psu. Now that I have a bit more money, I want to swap out the motherboard and make the switch from an amd cpu to a Core i5 4670k and switch my graphics card to a GTX 760 or equivilant (something that can max or near max out Titanfall at ~60fps, 30-40 whilst recording in 1080p w/ fraps). My questions are: What GTX 760 should I go with? What new PSU will I need to power the 760 and i5, what motherboard should I get? (I want one that has dual x16 PCIe slots so I have the option to add a second card for SLI later) Should I upgrade my RAM as well? If the motherboard has 4 ram slots, I would be fine with adding another 2 2gb dims. My budget is around 500-650 bucks. Here is what I have in mind, and I want constructive feedback on my choices. http://pcpartpicker.com/p/3uImV

don't buy cx series PSU . really bad . go with XFX xtr 650 or any seasonic . . 760 is good but it will almost give utlra 60fps constantly . . 770 should be the card and your 8gb memory is enough . .
