Gaming PC upgrade

[J0Y]

Hello,

I would like to upgrade my computer part by part over the year.

My two options are continue at 1080p max settings or move up to 4K (liking the idea of the latter).


My current specs:

Case: Corsair Carbide Series 300R
Motherboard: Gigabyte G1.SNIPER Z87 (Socket 1150, DDR3)
CPU: Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz Quad-Core
CPU Fan: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (120mm)
RAM: G.Skill 4 x 4GB (16GB) - DDR3 at 1866MHz
GPU: Gigabyte NVIDIA GTX 780
PSU XFX 750W

Storage: Samsung 840 Evo SSD (OS) and Western Digital HDD (Games)

Not concerned with storage as I'll move to a 1TB SSD for my games, monitor will be last so again not concerned.


1080p or 4K - What would you reccomend I upgrade first and upgrade with what parts?

Thanks in advance,
J0Y.

For 1080p that looks good already.

For 4K you want more gfx power.

Overclock the CPU also.

I would keep CPU and OC to the max, get single Nano or Fury and OC to the max, probably cheapest route. If you go R9 390 CF your 750W PSU may become a puddle of plastic and metal.

Would an overclocked Fury be better than R9 390 CF for 4K?

If Crossfire is working correctly and the game is working in Crossfire I would assume a pair of 390s to be faster.
