Highguy

1. Budget & Location
Canada ($CAD) - Less then 2500$

2. Aim
Gaming (CPU intensive games such as ARMA III), recording, hosting servers with friends, rendering.

3. Monitors
2x 1920x1080

4. Peripherals
I don't need : OS/Keyboard/Mouse/Monitors/Case/Disc drive

5. Why are you upgrading?
I'm given my PC to my brother so I need a new one.

 

(** : I was thinking of getting a GTX 980 TI, Intel Core i7-4790K or Intel Core i7-6700K because IDK if DDR4 is worth it, at least 16gb of ram, 1tb HDD WD black + a SSD (around 200gb I'd say), I want air cpu cooler,I'm going with the define r5 for the case )

I'll see what I can come up with. I noticed you stuck a 980Ti with a 1080p monitor; kind of a waste, really. You can get away with something far, far cheaper and get the same result.

Why do you want a WD Black?

The WD Blue is basically the same thing but far cheaper.

Oh, I didn't know that. And I will upgrade eventually for 1440p dual monitors so that's why.
