So i have a completed PC, but feel its time for an upgrade and i have a birthday coming up so I'll be able to get money for whatever. Anyways, I'm trying to decide what i should upgrade. My PC specs should be in my signature. I have the Logitech G230 (the red headset) headphones, Steel series merc stealth, Logitech marathon, and the monitor i don't need to upgrade. I also have 3 open 5.25" drive bays. So what do you think i should upgrade next? Thanks everyone!

Seems more than decent to me, I can't give you any pretexts for upgrading, though you didn't mention speakers (excluding headphones) , which are almost always upgradeable. If you want to sli later, then a bigger Power Supply might be interesting...

I suggest getting a Z97 motherboard for future upgrades(BROADWELL)BTW,your other components are more than enough to upgrade.

Yeah, it looks good. If you don't really have a reason to buy new parts except for "bday $" then I would spend it on something else.

I'd suggest a mechanical keyboard, but your keyboard looks like you bought it for a specific game :)

I don't really use speakers unless i have people over, and i have speakers that do the job for that.

It's the same price as Z87 mobos BUT it will fit haswell processors AND if you want to upgrade to Broadwell,you wont need to buy a new board :)

It's more of its a time where i have money, usually i don't have money to spend, and so its gives me some nice spending money.

anyways though, i bought the keyboard a while back because it was like 75% off. But i have put a lot of thought into a new keyboard, but cant find one that i am very happy with. (suggestions would be nice ;)  ). I want one that feels nice, such as comfortably and such. Also, the cheaper the better. But i don't want a "cheap" keyboard. also, looks are important to me, so that is something else i like. The Logitech G19 looks nice, but i rather buy from a company focused on gaming.

Well, i dont plan on upgrading most likely until i build a new computer, or something i really want comes out, and i have the money.

Yea I understand. Just saying you have a great build already that doesn't "need" anything else.

Well it depends if you want a mechanical or not. If I remember right almost all logitech are rubber dome. Also, I've read the screen on the g19 doesn't work for many games. I just bought the k95 a week ago and love it. It's mechanical, has the many macro keys I need and is just awesome. It was $150. The k70 is cheaper and mechanical to.

If you want something "cheap" but not cheap, the sidewinder x4 is the best there is. It's the best quality non-mechanical keyboard you'll find. It's $50 has a few macro keys, red backlit keys and rarely any bad reviews/problems with them.
