Hey guys,


So I've been wanting to replace some of my computer parts for some time now. The whole build is about 2,5 years old except for the graphics card and power supply which I got almost a year ago.
I've been looking at a new CPU, motherboard and memory and I think everything would be compatible, but I just want to be sure. Maybe you guys have some other recommendations.


This is the current build:


CPU: Intel Core i5-4670
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-H81M-DS2
Memory: Crucial 8 GB DDR3-1600

Graphics Card: MSI GeForce GTX 970
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 7200.14, 1 TB
Power Supply: Cooler Master B600 v.2


This is the build after the changes:


CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K
Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-Z97P-D3
Memory: Ballistix 16 GB DDR3-1600

Graphics Card: MSI GeForce GTX 970
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 7200.14, 1 TB
Power Supply: Cooler Master B600 v.2


Should I upgrade my power supply and hard drive too? Or will this build be good enough for gaming, streaming, Photoshop, etc. while having dual monitors (both 1920x1080)?


Thank you in advance for your time and answers.

Well it's already good enough, and will still last pretty long :) happy gaming then
dude, while the i5 is enough for them, it's really better if you get the Ryzen instead, u will get much better performance than the i5 (especially since u're changing the mobo anyway, might as well get the new gen)
what's your budget? if u can tell me i might be able to improve it :D
