Hello Community, I am looking to upgrade my PC specs (in signature). I mostly play FPS games. I don't need a super rig just something to play games at high rates smoothly. Thanks in advance!

8gb of memory, great i5 but if your not overclocking i would get the i5-4670 non k and a H1/H7 mobo. The Fatal1ty Z87 Killer allow for sli so you can still use those GTX 8800 in sli

Not really, I mean I was looking at a medium build with an i5, I already have a case, another OS, keyboard, mouse, monitor, and speakers so I only need CPU, Motherboard, WAY more memory! And I would like to keep my GTX 8800 ultras for a little while till I can get my hands on a 760 or 770

What gen intel if your going with the 4670k then the Z97 motherboard should still work with them.
If your talking about the 3rd gen like the I5 3570K then I recommend a Z77 motherboard.
