I'm currently looking into building a new system soon (probably over summer) and was just wondering how important the GPU and motherboard combination is. I will probably be going for a GTX 780, perhaps Ti, but I don't know whether I should get a Gigabyte or a EVGA branded one. Since I will probably be going for a Gigabyte Z87X-OC motherboard, would going for a Gigabyte 780 as opposed to a EVGA 780 be better, or does it not matter?
Also, is that a decent mobo or would you recommend an ASUS one, which a lot of people seem to.
Oh and something else I can ask while I'm here is is an i7 worth it (for another £50 or so)? Or would a top i5 be ample enough for just casual gaming (Skyrim is the most demanding gam I'd play).
