thanks for this input i have an ek cpu watercooler on my i7 26k would i be right in saying i can change the block to suit this socket. Also i have always used the DVI to connect my GPU will i need tp purchase a different cable

Your rite why would i need a cable .Sorry for being a nub m8 . so this cooler could fit ok then ?

 

[ned42]

You have an i7 2600K ? Is this new bundle going to replace that ? As the 2600K is still a very good cpu.

yes as i have the money to do it now so i think i will . And yes the 26k is very good but its just i have the money to do it now not expecting a big change in preformance.Do you think im being unwise to change ??

gtx 980ti
16 gig ram
benq 24xlt screen 120hz

umm ok guys thanks a lot good info here . So is haswell E better?

 

[ned42]

so what would be the best upgrade for my 26k rig i have an ssd .
would a screen be a better choice ??

 

[ned42]

Do you fancy a bigger screen at higher res ? say 4k

yes 27 inch but i dont want to kill the gpu

 

[ned42]

Well that depends on what games you play so if your happy at 1080p then a 27" can be had for £130 , £230 will get you 27" 2560x1440 and £300 will get you 27" 3840x2160 4k.

like the sound of that 4k i play bf4 and will be playing bf1 when it comes out you think my 980ti amp extreme will will be fine with 4k ?

well guys i went for the 4K and am happy so far with the way its going. my only small prob is coming back to 60hz from 120hz . but the picture quality in game makes up for a bit of that loss as i was 1080p
