I'm planning to build new PC,

Currently Xeon E3110 running from 2008 , 8GB Ram and Radeon HD 6870. So it's time to build a new rig :)

First I was thinking about:

Intel Core i5-4670K,
MSI Z87-G45 Gaming,
G.SKILL DDR3 2x4GB 1600MHz CL7 RipjawsX,
XFX Core 650W 80+ SLI PSU,
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 OC 2GB DDR5,
Kingston V300 SV300S37A/120G

But now I wonder if i shouldnt go with:

Intel i5-4670,
MSI H87-G43,
G.SKILL DDR3 2x4GB 1600MHz CL7 RipjawsX,
XFX Core 650W 80+ SLI PSU,
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 770 OC 2GB DDR5,
Kingston V300 SV300S37A/120G

So I would sacriface OC potential (and cheaper mobo) for better GPU. I don't want to touch my PC for like 2-3 years (im fine if I will need to lower my settings in future), and then after 2-3y I would probably replace only GPU.

Whats better? get better CPU and overclock it after 2 years with new GPU. Or have better GPU now and hope in 2 years my CPU will still handle new games with new graphic onboard?

p.s. I don't plan to do SLI.
p.s.2 budget = 783 euros.

Dont skimp on the mobo imo. You can ugprade to a better GPU later much easier than a mobo.

MOBO is your main body of your PC - I would allways get an ok MOBO that will last you a long time, CPU and GPU you can allways upgrade later.

A 760 is allways a good choice for the money if your gaming at 1080p.

I think i will replace MSI board for Gigabyte G1.Sniper Z87, leave i5-4670K mount my old Scythe Ninja 3 and get gtx 760. Later I can OC CPU and get better GPU.

Is G1.Sniper a good mobo? It has Ultra Durable 4 Plus and Dual Bios, while g45 gamins has only 1 bios...

Opinions?

Gigabyte G1.Sniper Z87 is a good board but if you want a MOBO that every one likes ( me included, I have it) is the Asus Hero.

A great board with many features and at a great price, there is no real need for the average gamer to go over the 200 Euros range for a good motherboard.

Asus Hero FTW... Great BIOS and great quality + great on board sound.

http://www.pccomponentes.com/core/client/showList/id/382634/hash/fZuE9XeZ

Here is a build - price:

799 euros

you could get the R7 260X DirectCUII OC 2gb for 141 euros

total then: 755 euros

OR you could go with the NEW GTX 750Ti 2 gb (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JE2pS9Gm4O8) for 109.12 euros

Total then: 723.12 euros

All of these would be ok to game on 1080p, obviously the lower GPU´s you cant have everything on ultra - but more than playable.

* If you look at the GTX 750Ti then for that price range its a fantastic card - even runs Crysis 3 on high and pumps out 37.75 fps...

Thank You for Your time, sadly I needed to order my PC before you posted - need the parts before the weekend, because i'm selling my old rig.

So my build will be:

Intel Core i5-4670K 3.4GHz BOX
Gigabyte G1.Sniper Z87
Gigabyte GeForce GTX 760 OC 2GB DDR5 PCI-E BOX
be quiet! Pure Power L8 600W 80PLUS Bronze (heard very good reviews and its very silent)

G.SKILL DDR3 2x4GB 1600MHz CL7 RipjawsX (not much price diffrence between CL9)

Kingston V300 SV300S37A/120G (moving from hdd to ssd, so it will be huge improvment anyway while kingston cost 2/3 of samsung ssd price)

Asus Hero is a really good mobo, but I dont need all that sata ports or double PCIe x16 and both mobo gets "gaming" NICs and good sound chip. This way i could get better GPU which beats GTX 750Ti and R7 260X.

Thanks for help again :)

GTX 760 is a great card and works well at 1080 - also further down the road you can SLI for 780 type material...
