Hello. I am planning on building a pc by the end of july or the beginning of august. I will do light video editing and mainly gaming. I am not sure if i should go with x99 to be able to upgrade to a higher core cpu. In the end, as long as i can handle single core processing and multi core processing efficiently I am happy. I will play all my games in 1080p and maybe in a year's time upgrade to a 1440p g sync monitor. By then i will be capable of getting a better gpu or sli with maybe a 1070 or 1080. Please help. I perfer pcpartpicker links. Thank you <3 .
