really? i had no intentions overclocking with the current rig hence the non K cpu. it turbos to 3.8 at the moment.
 
Well OCing aside I wouldn't say there's anything wrong with what you've got.
Where would you say you feel it lacking?
Also if you already have 16Gb of RAM, do you really need another set? unless it's additional to your current sticks /you have 4*4Gb and want future upgrades, but even then RAM'll probably be cheaper when you upgrade
 
Very true. guess im more attracted to the looks of the build. i have a watercooled 900d and the mobo parts are blue, and i have a red /black theme.

GFX card i had upgraded a few months ago.

wouls you say theres a big difference between a i7 4770k and a i5 4670k?

Click to expand...

Going forward games will be running faster on the i7, games like B4f run faster on it I believe.
