Do you realize that you only have a 128gb ssd which equates to about 100gb of usable space after over-provisioning. Thats not alot of space for games and maybe recordings.

Don't get lga 2011 unless your gona get a hexa core cpu. the lga 1150 i7s are faster than lga 2011 quad cores.

Get a i7 4790K
Z97 motherboard.

He probably missed that HDD because everything is disorganized.

If you put cpu, mobo, ram etc in order then it would be easier to read.

Just my 2 cents.

The 4790k is really better than the 4820k? I can do that i think it will let me.
Z97 is ridiculously expensive, +$247, cant do that.

4790K is definantly better.

And yes/no for z97, you can find them for as cheap as $100, but the top of the line ones are $400 (which is really unnecessary unless you can spluge).
