  1. In any GPU intensive game, he'll be totally fine. In games like The Witcher, Fallout 4 and other heavily unoptimized titles there will be a bottleneck, but as long as the game is optimized there will be none.

     

    You guys love the word "bottleneck."

     

    OP, you're fine pairing those together in games like Battlefield, Battlefront, and some other popular shooters. Skyrim will be fine, with a less power GPU and a more powerful CPU I get ~75 FPS on Ultra High everything. I don't get dips or anything.

    Except the 6300 is LITERALLY the only problem for OP, and he didn't say anything about any other game. 

  2. but I dont want a bigger board, and I wanna keep my 8350<3, and i wanna go crossfire, and cant wait for the fury x2, yeah i got a few problems with this build, i know :)

    If you want micro ATX and a fury x2, you need to go Intel, period. AMD just doesn't have a viable lineup for it on the CPU & motherboard side.

  3. Fps scales fairly linearly with pixel count, so if you got for example 30 fps on a 4k monitor, you'd, in most games, get roughly 60-70 fps on a 1440p monitor. With that being said, they're probably very similar in terms of difficulty to run at their full potential. 

    Most people on the forum are going to recommend 1440p 144Hz over 4k 60Hz, because for the majority of people/games, smoothness > image quality.

  4.  

    I am pretty sure the xeon outperforms the i3770k at the same clockspeed by a measurable amount and in gaming (I know that for sure) by more than 5% across various games.

    Yup, because the Xeon is Haswell based (it's basically a 4770). However, a heavily overclocked 3770k will destroy it.

     

     

    Referring to the above topic......

    Which is better? (Video editing terms.....)

    Factor in everything about the processors....

    The Xeon will be better in video editing when both at stock. If you overclock the 6600k quite a bit, it will be similar in performance in things like rendering, and better in the majority of games. However, you'll need a more expensive motherboard, RAM, and a cooler, so it's better to go with the Xeon.

  5. Thank you so much!  If i use this motherboard and this adapter can I still have two 980s in SLI with them both scaled on 8x?

    Adapter:  http://www.amazon.com/Lycom-DT-120-PCIe-Adapter-Support/dp/B00MYCQP38/ref=pd_sim_147_1?ie=UTF8&dpID=41XbyjHLhmL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_AC_UL160_SR160%2C160_&refRID=1F929628MBYAV22KCEZD#Ask

    I don't think so. If you plan to go SLI 980s, I would just get a SATA SSD. 

    Your motherboard/CPU supports either 16x, 8x/8x, or 8x/4x/4x. SLI requires at least 8x/8x.

    You sure?

    That site doesn't seem to be very reliable.

    See what I mean?

     

    And then look at this;

    One core maxed out. How the hell can the 5960X be higher.

     

    I'm not saying with absolute confidence either is right. But the fact they contradict proves that you can't just blindly go by one and stick with it.
