I've had my ASUS Sabertooth 990FX Motherboard since it came out when I was upjazzing my machine years ago. And since then, I recently doubled my memory (32GB G-Skill DDR3-1600), upgraded my GPU to a EVGA Geforce GTX 960 (REALLY REALLY debating getting a 970 SSCik, already) but alas.
Being that I'm a graphic designer, freelancing. I need something fast for work with Cinema 4D and AfterEffects, etc. And I was really one click away from ordering the Intel i7 4790k Processor that seems to be quite the step up from my AMD Phenom II X4 965. BUT then realized, sadly, that my Motherboard, that I've never ever had any issues with that I love and trust, does NOT have the right socket/port for it.
Would anyone here have any advice for a solution? Whether it be a Motherboard that really does compare to my 990fx, (ex: I really like the RAID features it has) OR an amazing processor that compares to the Intel i7? I'm open
Thank you guys so much. I'm sorry if that has been covered, I hunted for the last few days, but can't seem to find an answer with my particular questions. Everyone does gaming. haha. Which I do to, but my MAIN thing would be creating graphics, rendering, etc.
