These two are a great gaming combo. The motherboard has more than enough slots for your SSD and video card. Depending on your budget, you could always get the i7, as well.

Alternatively, this one has more space between your PCI slots, but costs a bit more.

Good choice. As far as your motherboard options...the order of quality is (last time I check)...

1. Asus
2. Gigabyte
3. MSI

Can't go wrong with any of them. For the i7, get the 4790K if you're planning to overclock. If not, get the 4790.

Brillis Wuce :

thanks one more thing any preference on monitors i use 3- 27inch in Eyenfinity multi-display mode is this too much for these cards in crossfire ?

Brillis Wuce · Feb 4, 2015

What resolution are you monitors? What has your performance been like so far?

tankcomander · Feb 4, 2015

Brillis Wuce :

the resolution in eyefinity is set to 5760-1048 max 60 hertz there acer g276hl i get around 50 frams on full ultra in bf4

Brillis Wuce · Feb 4, 2015

I'd be happy with 50 frames per second. Yeah, man, they work great. With V-sync, the max you can go is 60 anyways....
