Need is Gaming only,

Intel® CoreTM i7-4790K or I5 -4690K


ASUS Z97-A
MSI R9 280X GAMING 3G

Lot of experts on "Toms Hardware" are suggesting to go for I5, my only inclination is towards 8Mb L3 cache with I7.

Not sure how much difference inperformance will I7 make to the build

Regards, Manish

Do you mean dual G Cards by "2 x 295x's" - if yes then i definitely would like to keep that option for future addition ..... i assume dual cards only add to the rendering part .... not so much effect on graphic performance !

Not able to comprehend the word 'noob' - by future proofing in general intention of user's is in reference to two terms(cycle) as per Moore's law.

In addition to the above - an in laymen terms i meant atleast 4 years i should be able to play all the games released :D
