Posted February 14, 2015 See Signature (Z97-K/4690) non-K My Motherboard,... M.2 socket not used yet,... so there is that... Z97-K having a PCIE 3.0 16x /w the PCIE 2.0 4x secondary slot, my own shortfall, although I've never used multiple cards, not withstanding future needs. I'd eventually will be changing to dual 8x or dual 16x at some point. Without the need for a 2nd gpu right now, this board is plenty capable though. And a K-Skew Processor. My current workloads don't dictate a need, coming from my 2600K @ 5.0 to this system,... maybe in the future it will hold a 4790K. The 4690 @ 4.0Ghz (BCLK OC) Turbo constant (thx Asus for that feature to lock all @ turbo) is ample for gaming and my 1080p encoding video (gpu assisted) hobby workloads. Still makes you wonder... "What if I........" Maximums - Asus Z97-K /w i5 4690 Bclk @106.9Mhz * x39 = 4.17Ghz, 8GB of 2600Mhz DDR3,..

Posted February 27, 2015 Nope... I really want a new case and PSU (These are confirmed to be replaced) and a new GPU as this one IS SOO WEAK. Especially when you want a 1440p monitor or 1080p at 120-144Hz. 970 Weak!????

Posted February 27, 2015 970 Weak!???? Weak if you want to run triple 4k monitors for surround gaming lol. And lets face it...who here doesn't want to run that kind of setup? If I had unlimited funds, I know I would. Not sure what ridiculous cards I would use though Ketchup is better than mustard. GUI is better than Command Line Interface.

Posted February 27, 2015 No but almost. See my sig... My P.C.'s kind of a stopgap. I'm migrating to LGA 1150 and waiting for a GTX 970 to arrive. Depending on performance my next upgrade is to an i5 and then I'll be good. As for it being a 'signature' build, I've never really thought in those terms but I'd be happy maybe with a Hadron Air or an Arc Mini with the tinted side-panel window (although my current mobo is too large for it so I'm still using an Antec 900 (that at some point I'm going to spray black where it' blue/grey steel colour (and add sprayed white i/o shields to the unused slots)). Probably going with Aerocool Dead-Silents from here on out but have a Cooler Master MegaFlow on it's lowest possible speed in the Antec 900's blowhole.
