Hey Guys need some help....

1. Current cpu is i5 4760k. Havent over clocked any with my h100i but who knows i may partake in the fun eveutually. Should i go ahead and upgrade to i7 4790k?

2.Current gpu is gigabyte 770 with 2 gb vram isnt cutting it anymore with 2 monitors. And with the 800 series looming around im probably going to pick up 2 780's when the price drops. Any recommendations? At least 4gb vram on there and that is the current power supply will 860 watts enough or will i need a replacement?

3.16 or 8 gb ram. I do use shadowplay a considerable amount but i dont edit them (n adobe premiere or anything else) Should i just take the leap?

4. Im looking for a good headset. Nice bass. Crisp highs. Not over ~150. And a good keyboard. Is mechanical really worth it? I like my k40 raptor but i dont get decent backlight (led's are sh!t)

5. Mouse isnt the best either. I dont like the finish on it as its starting to wear.

Im playing Diablo 3 Battlefield 4 and Arma 3 as well as some future titles that will come out. Plus i will be using this for homework for school. Thanks.I know its a lot but any help will be appreciated...

Stick with current CPU. It is good enough. Just overclock it to get more performance.

You can even buy 4GB version of 770 and it would be good enough for dual monitors. SLI of 780s is your preference.

8GB RAM is plenty.

I'm also looking for a headset good for gaming and equally good for music.

Mechanical keyboard is a way to go. K70 Vengeance is superb from Corsair. I've used rubber dome keyboards quite a while and after switching to mechanical, I realized what I had missed. Worth it.

For mouse Corsair M65 is recommended.

860W is good enough.
