Hello all

hope everyone is getting into the christmas spirit...

wondering if i can pinch some assistance with my build, im not quite sure which way to go now regarding my current setup, i put a post up in May with my build and was advised my CPU probably is good for a year maybe 2 and yes i still havent overclocked or got around to putting my cooler on...

so it got me thinking with Boxing day sales approaching what i could get to improve or better my gaming experience, i keep looking at these ultra wide monitors, which makes me think then i need a 1080, then i get side tracked and look at i7's and by then i end up back to where i started where im not sure what to do to better my build...

currently i have

Intel Core i5-2500K 3.30GHz (Sandybridge) Socket LGA1155 Processor - Retail

Asrock Z68 Extreme4 Intel Z68 (Socket 1155) DDR3 Motherboard

Thermalright Silver Arrow CPU Cooler (Socket LGA1366LGA1155LGA1156LGA775AM2AM3) (although this is still in its box as never got round to putting it on

Inno3D
GeForce GTX 780 iChill HerculeZ X3 Ultra 3072MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

2 x OCZ Vertex 3.20 120GB (OS)

You could do Ultrawide gaming on a GTX 1070. I'd definitely recommend overclocking that 2500k though, amazing chips!
