Just about to buy the following basket. have a 3770k but throws many errors. Modding my 750D into a red scheme so looking for red/black. Should i really be waiting for broadwell or go ahead and get this kit?

Also, what is the software bundle with the i5 all about? whats the software?

YOUR BASKET
1 x Intel Core i5-4690K 3.50GHz (Devil's Canyon) Socket LGA1150 Processor - Retail £179.99
1 x Asus Maximus VII Ranger Intel Z97 (Socket 1150) DDR3 ATX Motherboard £135.95
1 x CableMod C-Series AXi, HXi & RM Cable Kit - Black / Red £69.95
Total : £395.48 (includes shipping : £8.00 Ex.VAT).

 
Makes no sense, you should find out whats wrong with your existing setup.

If you also bother to hover your mouse over the software it tells you what is included.
 
:p

"My car has a puncture, new car time!"
"Bathroom tap doesn't work, time to move out!"

OP, make a thread about your current issues and I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of it somehow. You will notice little to no improvement over your current setup if you buy the parts you listed above.

It might not even fix your issues.

Haha, ok :). So its not like i havnt tried to fix this issue.

I have lost trust in MSI QC after this: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18651440

And the CPU issue is here: http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18669307

I have tried more things outside of that post and had no success. I managed to stop the errors by swapping the CPU, thats the only thing that has stopped it. If you know how i might fix it i would really appreciate it. (but i still dont trust this motherboard in the long term)

Also, MSI Z77 Mpower isnt red :p

Cant believe i didnt think to hover mouse over it. I was trying to get a better view of the image and google for what the bundle was -.-
 
My decision makes a little more sense now, right? I mean, im pretty sure the cpu is permanently damaged.
