I currently have a APU came with computer the AMD A8-5500 3.4GHz and a GTX 760. At the moment I'm looking for a new motherboard with the right sockets and a new CPU. Plus a new case to fit the motherboard correctly and have more fans. Right now I have around 600-700 USD. The APU I have currently isn't for gaming and slows down my GTX 760 a lot and streaming. I've been looking at a few mobos and CPUs. Have 750 watt power supply.

I haven't found a new case yet, but whatever I have money wise left over I can use for a new one. I've been looking at the intel i5-4670k and other good CPUs, but I really don't know what to look for in a CPU, (like no idea). All I know is I may want more than 4 Cores in the CPU, but that isn't a huge deal.

The motherboards, literally have no idea what to look for right now. I have only 14GB of RAM and I kinda want to install more just for: League of Legends and Minecraft servers and such. I need a the LGA 1150 socket I did find out. I really want to SLI graphics card, 2 GTX 760s or GTX 750ti, 770, 780 who knows. Maybe like 6 or so USB ports.

if u want more than 4 cores in a cpu then go for fx 8350 it has 8 cores but the extra cores not really matters i will stick to i5 4690k and enjoy the strong 4 cores. i7 is too much for a gaming pc......gtx 750 ti has no sli feature .........and sli has a lot of drawbacks like micro shutters , not all games support sli,more noise power consumption and heat so doing sli in the first place is not the best idea...........
here are some motherboards for fx 8350 ......

So even though I have the money don't go for the CPU that's better? I'm talking last longer. A lot of people have said in the next like 2-4 years the i7's will be just be better than the i5 was the only real reason I was gonna get one. And a lot of people have told me just to get the i5 4670k. I kinda just need one that won't be too obsolete in like 3 years also doing 60FPS streams at 720P. My internet can already handle it. ~~~~~ALSO THE PCPARTPICKER LINKS FOR SOME REASON I CANT CLICK OR MIDDLE MOUSE CLICK.

there is no harm in getting i7 but gaming doesn't utilize the full potential of i7 and i5 4690k and i7 will equally perform in game ......but say if u are doing animation work or rendering etc then i7 really shows its potential....though your pc part picker is not opening i am providing u different links..
