Hi, this is my first p.c build and I'm a total newbie to this. a few years back I was wanting to do a PC build for gaming mainly and for some CAD work for coll, but I be never got around to doing it. i all ready own a Asus sabertooth x58 motherboard. i also already a have case & RAM ( corsair vengeance performance 2 x 4gb ddr3 1600mhz and was going to get another so that Im on triple channel). I'm not sure 100% sure what CPU I going to get but probably some thing like this: intel i7-950 Quad-Core Processor 3.06 GHz, 8MB Cache, Socket 1366 for £224.99. but can also afford the : intel i7-950 six core to for around £500
but now I’m not sure after been told it is not worth the money for the technology because ideally I would like for it to be future proof. What is your opinion on this?
Original build idea
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor (£239.94 @ **** PC) or intel i7-950 six core to for around £500
Memory: 2 x 4 GB
Mother board: Asus SABERTOOTH X58
Ram: 2 x 4 GB
GPU: nVidia a GTX 760/770/780 for around £300 - £500
New build idea
CPU: Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor £239.94
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler £22.63
Motherboard: Asus SABERTOOTH Z97 MARK2 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard (£119.96
Memory: G.Skill TridentX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1866 Memory (£138.22
GPU: nVidia a GTX 760/770/780 for around £300 - £500
What is the difference in performance, graphics and technology between the two? Also I don’t want to go over £800 if I can. Any other recommendation to the p.c rigs would be greatly appreciated, thanks dean
