Hello, 

I recently compiled components for my first build after saving for a very long time.

It would be great if people could say if it is good for playing the latest titles at 1440p/4k and suggestions.

 

Build: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/QzJNsY

 

Thanks

Upcoming build: 4790k OC @ 4.6Ghz, Dual MSI 980 Twin Frozr V, 16 GB Vengeance Pro 2133Mhz RAM, 760T Corsair Case w/ Razer Blackwidow Chroma

If you are looking at building a 4K right why not wait a little longer and see how new cards coming out will move prices?  Also why not see if you will want the new cards from Nvidia?  If you are looking at 4K gaming I'd wait a little.

Too many ****ing games!  Back log 4 life! :S

Yeah, was putting it on paper to see any bumps in the system, will replace the 780 Tis with 980 SLi if they're worth the price/performance. When are they planning to release it? Will they announce it in a few days at Game24?

Looks pretty good, although I'd personally go with either a Gigabyte or ASUS GTX 780Ti, like these:

You could also go for a pair of 290Xs for similar performance at a lower cost:

Although if you'd prefer the lower temps, lower heat output, and features of NVidia's cards then there's no reason not to go with the 780Tis (or upcoming 980/980Tis).

We don't know for sure, although it's likely they'll say something at Game24.

Thanks. Yeah the Zotacs are the cheapest at the site I'm getting them at, so it leave a bit more headroom for peripherals.
