Thanks homie. Im taking everything everybody says into consideration

 

[bsod1]

yeah that's what this forum is all about

The build I suggested will allow you to overclock your i5 and probably reach i7 4790 stock speeds.
That along with the GTX 970 should be a beast.

if you do not want to overclock, I'd go with sadam's.
