So I'm on the market for a 4K rig. All the funds not in yet, but I'm getting there. No real budget, but this is gonna be my pride and joy, so I say from $2500 to $3000. With the hardware we have now I'm up for anything. The one part I do have is a Corsair HX850. I'm debating between z97 and x99. I read there's no real difference in gaming with 4 vs 6 cores. But future proofing falls in part. Same thing with DDR3 vs 4. I'm more so looking at power efficiency and I'm seeing amazing things with the GTX 9xx. But I don't know if it beats 780 TIs or 290Xs at 4K. Then I could do sli 980 or 3 way 970 for cheaper and probably stronger. I definitely want the OS on a SSD and other stuff on a HDD. I need keyboard and mouse too. I'm getting the Corsiar Air 540 case.
