My pc is getting kind of outdated and I was going to buy a new processor and a new graphics card I'm wondering if i should keep the rest of the components or just build a new pc. My current pc is an i5 4460 with a gtx 750ti an asus b85 motherboard, 8gb of ddr3 ram at 1600 a seasonic 520watt power supply, seagate 1tb hard drive, in a corsair spec 03 case and a coolermaster hyper 212 evo.. I'm looking to play games on higher settings so I was looking at getting a 4790k and a 390x so I would probably need a new power supply also... Should I reuse the case, ram, hard drive, cpu cooler, and the motherboard might work also... I have a budget of about 1200 so I can afford to rebuy it all just don't know that I want to go through the whole rebuild thing again right now lol...

You should reuse everything beside the GPU and PSU. The 4460 is enough to run everything and 8gb is still sufficient. Just get a new, bigger PSU and get a new GPU. Since you are going for high-end either get r9 390x or if you have money gtx 980ti, in both cases you will need a new PSU. Also depends on what you play but if you are going to be playing just 1080p then both cards are an overkill.
