I have found out I have enough money to upgrade my motherboard, CPU & RAM. These are my choices as I won't be overclocking and I will be mainly gaming, light video editing and just using the computer on daily basis for things like browsing forums, youtube and work. Are these good choices?
Budget = £450
Motherboard = Asus Z87-K Socket 1150 HDMI DVI D-Sub 8-Channel HD...
CPU = Intel Core i7 4770K 3.50GHz Socket 1150 8MB Cache....
RAM = Corsair 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 1600MHz Vengeance Pro Kit...
And also, when I get enough money for my GPU. Should I upgrade it from my 5870 to something like the GTX 770 SC? I'm gaming on a 1600x900 resolution. And how much of an improvement will I see from my current rig to this new haswel build? Specs on my profile! Thanks!
