I have a budget of 500 euros and want to game at 60-∞ fps ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Option #1: Upgrade the PSU and get another GTX 770 (cheapest option)
Option #2: Sell the GPU (200 euros) and CPU (130euros), buy an i5-4690K and a 100 euro motherboard and pair it up with a GTX 970
I'm looking for the best path to take and would greatly appreciate feedback. (I will post pictures when it's all finished)
edit: just noticed the failed thread title lol
Can you tell me what kind of spray is that? That pink is amazing by the way. I'll be doing a similar build later this year with the same case and cpu cooler so I'm very interested, keep up the updated and good luck.
Thanks for the cool contest, Linus. HTC rocks for making this happen.
