just make sure that the z87 motherboard does not need a bios flash to support the 4690k i had to make sure and the other MB i wanted to get did not so i ended up getting a z97 instead

and also why do you want to get a z87 ? try to get a z97 with sata express or m.2 support might want to get something latter never hurts to get latest gear

Just edited sorry

if you do plan to SLI latter i would rather get a 980 not a 780 TI even if you don't plan to SLI it might be a better buy

Just edited sorry

It's a good build but I would have gone with a 980. Cheaper than the 780Ti and outperforms it in games (usually) and from what I heard can overclock like an absolute beast.

I would also suggest a slightly less powerful PSU like a 700 or a 650W unless you're planning on more GPUs

Thanks for the feedback guys, after doing some research i've decided to run to 980 in sli, do you have anymore recommendations or should i stick with what i've got?

 

i decided to get a 760w psu for extra power because i'm planning on getting more ram and running two graphics cards in sli, thought i'd plan ahead

in that case, that PSU will serve you well. That rig will be a monster, and I mean a MONSTER.

Im totally using this build for help on my own build right now because I was wanting to do the same thing(:

(Build a high-end gaming pc I can keep upgrading in the future)
