Thinking about upgrading my gaming rig. Currently I'm quite happy with it but I wouldn't mind upgrading my HTPC with my current gaming rig's mobo, ram and cpu.
For the cpu I really don't want to spend more that $320 and the i7-4790k looks like a nice chip. Though Skylake's are hard to come by I could hold out for the i5-6600K but tbh I wonder if I will get more performance out of the older i7?
That also brings me to the memory. The i7 means I'll be sticking with DDR3 but DDR4 i hear is awesome paired with the skylake cpu.
What do you all think?
