Plan to Upgrade PC

[NightlyGamer]

Hello,

 

My current system:

CPU: i7-4770K

Motherboard: GA-Z87-D3HP ATX LGA1150 

GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11 GB STRIX 

Ram: Ballistix Sport 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR3-1333 Memory

Main Drive: HyperX 3K 120 GB

Second Drive: 850 EVO-Series 1 TB

 

My plan is to update to i7 8700k and ASUS ROG Strix Z390-F.

 

Is this a good idea? I need some feedback plz.

What is your budget and what do you plan on using your system for?

you need to get ddr4 ram 

also  the z390 asus boards aren't great so i would get a different brand

Should be a good upgrade and free up a potential CPU bottleneck you might have right now. Don't forget that 8700k is gonna use DDR4 memory so you will also have to buy that as you are using DDR3 currently.

no

 

get a z390 aorus atx board or asrock extreme4 z390 instead, you would waste your money on that board
