Alright so im upgrading my budget pc to something a little better.
Current Pc:
Cpu: intel q8200 2.3ghz
Graphics: Gigabyte (the eye one idfk) Radeon 7870 2gb...
PowerSupply: Evga 500w
Motherboard: Some shit board
Ram: 8gb Kingston @1333....
Stoarge: 380gbish
After Upgrade
Cpu: i7-4790k @4.0ghz OR the i5-4690k @3.5ghz...OPINONS would be GREAT
Graphics: Radeon 7870
Powersupply: Evga 500w
Motherboard: ASRock H97 Anniversary ATX LGA1150
Ram: 8gb Kingston @1333
Storage: 380gbish/ upgrade to 1tb if i need to :/
The questions i have is.
1. When i go to install the new copy of windows will it replace the old copy of windows? i dont want two copy of windows on my pc... i looked into installing 1tb later down the line
2. Will the powersupply be able to push the new cpu with the graphics card for now? i will upgrade later if needed...im focused on buying the new cpu when i have the money.
3. Should i cut off the i7-4790k 4.0ghz and go to the i5-4690k 3.5ghz? and try to save for a better gpu? or something else in the build ....... (I will just be gaming and maybe streaming a little. I do intend to have this pc for a long time.. since its now my number 1 gaming machine)..
4. Will the cpu bottleneck the gpu? if so how bad, Im looking to be able to play games like....h1z1,gta 5,bo3 on high settings if not very high @1080p......
I seriously debate the whole is the $100 difference between the i7 and the i5 worth it for my experience .....I could put that 100 toward something else or i could use it to buy games i dont know........ but the awesome feeling when you tell somebody yea! i got a i7 4790k in my rig lol.... I dont know what would yall do? Im leaning toward the i5 in all honesty seems like the better bang for your buck
Thanks for the help <3
