I have this current build:
- Athlon X4 860K (OC'd to its Turbo)
- Gigabyte FM2A78M-HD2
- 8GB DDR3 at 1866MHz
- Sapphire HD7750 1GB
- Corsair VS450
- Multiple HDDs and a single Adata SP900
I have an extra set of 2x4GB sticks also at 1866, but I can't use it due to that the board only has 2 DIMM slots
Given my most use will be (most used to least) [1080p]:
- MOBAs on max
- 2015's AAA titles on medium to high (target FPS: 45-60)
- Maya 2015 rendering (I don't crash/errors with rendering as of now)
- Unity game programming (will be within this year)
- Recording games (I do plan to go for some 720p24fps streams occasionally) [by occasionally, whenever internet (3 down, 1 up) can handle that]
- Light edit on recorded games (via Vegas Pro, presets at 720p30fps) [I can handle lengthy render times, no problem with that]
Should I opt to move to this build?
- Intel Core i5-4460
- B85M Asus Pro Gamer / MSI Gaming (depends upon stock)
- Seasonic M12ii-520W*
Scenario for GPU upgrade:
- 4460 + R7 370
- 860K + R9 380
Plans for upgrades if I should continue with the AMD:
PSU (SS M12) -> GPU (R9 380) -> Motherboard (A88X) -> CPU cooler (Currently using Hyper T4, plan to get H80i or H100i)
*vs S12ii-520, I don't like the extra 4+4-pin, nor the unused cables even though it is tied/hidden.
