Hi
I would like to see your suggestions.
I have SAPPHIRE TRI-X R9 290X 4GB GDDR5 OC and I am going to buy
Intel Core i5 4670K (I haven't decided what socket type). I need a motherboard and RAM (16GB).
What do you think is the best match for this configuration?

Thanks
Maciej

Is this a computer with the sole purpose of gaming? Or are you planning to do other things on this computer?

Mainly gaming with occasional 2d / 3d graphic making. But ... 95% gaming :-)

Look for ASUS's Z97-A, solid choice for all kinds of users. Also, 8GB of RAM should be more than enough. If you can afford the GPU, get it, but if you can get an aftermarket cooler for it, because it may run hot.
