Intel Corei7 Quad Core Processor i7-4790k (4.0GHz
ASUS MAXIMUS VII RANGER
16GB KINGSTON HYPER-X BEAST DUAL-DDR3 2133MHz
GTX 970
CORSAIR 750W CS SERIES
Corsair H60


I was getting a lot of stick from people saying that it isn't needed for just gaming but why not get the best if you can? It's a much better upgrade from my current AMD 8350, ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0, 8GB KINGSTON DUAL-DDR3 1600MHz, CORSAIR 550W VS SERIES, Corsair H55.


So now I will be playing GTA V very happily

Yeah I bought my GPU with my current specs but it should make everything better with my new rig. What's your CPU?

"why not get the best if you can?" Well, that's not the "best".. Not sure why you'd get a low-end cooler if you're getting an i7 and GTX 970.

I can run MOST games on normal at 260 FPS. I am not saying I can run all games on ultra at 260 FPS if that is what you are saying...

H60 is worse than most CPU air coolers half the price and that's a terrible powersupply

Well done for not taking our advice.

I wasn't implying anything, I was just curious.
