I am thinking about buying a new graphic card which is EVGA NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 Super Clocked ACX 2.0 4GB GDDR5 Graphics Card and later change my current motherboard to ASUS Motherboard X99 Deluxe USB 3.1 along with my Intel card to i7 but right now I would like to start with the graphics card, any help?

Specs:

Graphic Card: GeForce GTX 750Ti

CPU: Intel Core i5-4440S CPU @ 2.80GHZ

Motherboard: ASUS Z87-C

RAM: Kingston Hyperx 8gb DDR3

Definitely, it is a great price for performance CPU, with 6 cores it is great. However be warned, you can only have a 2 way SLI with this CPU. And honestly it shouldn't worry you...

Hey Adam_006,
Do not worry the Asus Z87-c can work with a GTX 970 from EVGA. There will be no problems, it should be just plug and play with the drivers. I would suggest a i7 5820K when going for a new motherboard unless you want to do 3 way SLI then go for a 5930K. Again however if your work load really does need 8 cores the 5960X is your choice but my opinion is the 5930K is the sweet spot with everything you'll need.

Is the Intel Core i7-5820K Processor (15M Cache, up to 3.60 GHz) LGA2011V3 good for the motherboard I am going to buy?

And honestly it shouldn't worry you because 2 way SLI is the best SLI, the performance starts to become less noticeable at 3 Way SLI and 4 Way it is barely noticeable.
