I have:
a6800k clocked@5.0ghz
Asus fm2+board
corsair vengeance lp 1866 16gb (8x2)
corsair 850wpsu
h100i cooler
dual asus r9270x in crossfire
Samsung 256ssd
win8.1
corsair air540 case. 3 case fans/2fans on h100i
I play mainly eso currently, some dos emulation for commander keen and heretic/doom etc, and will be playing shadow of mordor. possibly bf4 and other high demand titles. (mainly play fps on xb360/xb1) unfortunately I am unsatisfied with the performance of my system playing pvp in eso (drops as low as 5-10fps). I am hoping that upgrading my cpu and board I will net some serious gains. I am planning to upgrade to r9290x soonish, and crossfire a second fairly soon after (or current equivalent when I can afford to do so. so for now I need a cpu and board that will do well for the demands of eso and that will down the road do well with dual crossfire/sli decent gpu's or massive single gpu. I don't want to have to upgrade cpu for atleast a year or so. any suggestions for video card/s for my later purchase would be awesome as well. I want 4vram etc 5-600usd range.
Can I get some input on a solid cpu/board combo under 600usd that will handle the above?
fwiw I will be purchasing at frys.
I am leaning towards i74790k
