I plan on building a new PC with an i7 5820K . I have a 24” IPS monitor that runs 1920x1200 natively. I will purchase a video card that can run max settings 60+ FPS on the most GPU intensive games of today and the near future. I wish to have one that will be over clock and duel friendly. Keep in mind that 3GB GDDR5 is a must. Suggestions.

Thank You,

If you plan on intense gaming an i7 5820K is OVERKILL but if you say so get this i7 5820K and pair with GTX 780ti X 2 for SLI configuration. Add 3TB SDD and Corsair H100i and 64GB of 2400Mhz RAM and 1500 Gold Rated PSU.

If you're mainly gonna game It's overkill yeah. From what I've seen, the gaming benchmarks of systems with X99 boards using DDR4-2133 actually show a little less fps in most games than for example systems with Z97 boards and an i7 or the top range i5.

IFF you can wait then I'd say wait until, well, early 2015 (possibly January, according to rumours), when the 14nm Intel Broadwell processors come out. At least, that's what I'm planning on doing. It'll be cheaper to build a system then, because they probably run on cheaper motherboards. And seeing the mobile Broadwells' performance improvements to the mobile Haswells, I think Broadwell will be the biggest improvement in years between two Intel generations (usually it's only a 10% improvement at most). The only thing I do not know is if they will be using DDR3 or DDR4 RAM, and I'm not sure what's been rumoured yet.

Thank you for your input. I am trying to compartmentalize this issue on my broader needs. I need additional cores and threading for other things I do…ie video conversions ect. Also the long life that X79 chipset endured makes me believe the X99 will do the same. This platform along with future upgrades ( i7 59xxX, DDR4 64 CAS < 15 & < $, M.2 SSD > 512 for < $, additional GPU to CROSS or SLI). My gaming time however I want respectable performance now. I am not running a monitor larger than 24” Don’t see the need for 4K and multi. Many of the bleeding edge graphics cards today cater to 4K and resolutions greater than 1920x1200….I am sporting a system I built in 2008! e8400 LGA775 hardy har har har!!! P35 chipset…wwwhat! 4GB DDR2 not kidding. An ATI oops AMD HD4870 graphics card and 2 Raptors in raid 0.. I am soooo due…
