I am upgrading my current gaming rig and I'm looking for a new CPU and Motherboard. Right now I have an Athlon X4 760K, 550W PSU, NVIDEA GTX 970 GPU, and 16 Gigs DDR3 RAM. I am looking for an i7 with hyperthreading that will do good with video editing and rendering. I use Adobe Premier for this. I also would like it to be good for games (which it should if it's an i7) and I don't really need more than 4 cores as the 6 and 8 core models are much more expensive. I also need a motherboard included in the price that has SLI support for future GPU upgrades. Thanks
Motherboard and CPU Combination for $350 or Less
