CPU : Core i5 4670
MOBO : Asus H87M-PRO
RAM : 8GB RipJaws 1600MHz
GPU : GTX 750 ti
PSU : Seasonic M12II-520 520W 80PLUS


I could go for a 4670k, Z87 board and R9-270X, but the PSU will be demoted to a lower brand,
Should I go with that ?

games I play : Dead Space 3, BF4, Crysis 3, Watch_Dogs, Far Cry 3 and many high end games.

I think this rig can run all games ultra because of my resolution.

my resolution is : 1024 x 768 VGA monitor (yea very very low)

I want to play on higher res, maybe 1080p, but I don't have the money yet. since I am getting this GPU I think I am stuck on the res because I know higher res like 1080p is going to be a hard time with this GPU.

OR

I could get a GTX 770 and a FX 6300 and upgrade later for a 1080p, hows that sound ?

but I think games will bottleneck the CPU. specially watch_dogs

For 1080p gaming, the GTX 660 or R9 270x will run every game at high-ultra settings at 30+ FPS . The FX series CPUs are meant for over clocking though :p but they still offer slight higher gaming performance than Intel's counterparts, at a lower cost

Anything better or in the same league as the i5-3470 shouldn't bottleneck.

how about this : Antec HCG-620 620W High Current Gaming 80+ Bronze ?

and what do you mean "bottom of available" ?

aint 270X fourth of AMD's good GPU

the new R9-295x ? > r9 290x > r9 280x > r9 270x ?

ok THX :)

how about going with the FX 6300 and GTX 770 and upgrading in the future for a 1080p ? OR not upgrade at all ? wont that be a total kick ass ? (or a total waste of money ? )

OR

get a FX 8320 and a GTX 760 ? what do you say ?

I am just worry that single threaded games and apps run worst at this CPU.
I even think my Pentium g620 run good ? LOL.

Since you're tight on budget , then the FX-8320 would be good enough, giving you the option of doing some over clocking in future. Don't worry about single threaded stuff. They won't suffer that much.

So Fx-8320 / i5-3470 + R9 270x/ GTX 660 + 1080p monitor would be my recommendation

Or you can try Tom's hardware 's i3-4130 + GTX 770 combo. I was shocked to see them pair those 2, but apparently, the i3-4130 does well in regular FPS but not so much in MMOs

WOW THX, I need to reset my build.

can you prefer me a 730$ gaming build? I got the casing no need for that and the HDD (gonna use my current one) and optical drive.

Wait, I forgot to ask you.

they said you need a good CPU if you have a lower resolution to push the GPU to make that resolution ?

is this true ?
