that is a very capable gaming setup and is enough for most games .. going to an intel build would just cause a lot of spending and a will leave you with a extra system just laying down ..yes intel builds are stronger but that doesnt mean that there arent any good amd cpu .. i would urge anyone to get a good intel setup for best performance however if your amd build is quiet strong enough then i would not lead you to do a complete rebuild .. as far as imk concern just get a gtx 970 or 980 and you should be good

Changing to a Intel processor would be his best move, and no he would not have a whole system laying around. He stated he was selling what he replaced. Evrything he has but the processor and motherboard would be reused.
The intell processor would have him set for quite a few years.
