Are you playing games on the PC or is it just for media? The 470 is pretty overkill for just media.

Lol yeah right.. except this one can share disks and go offline.. I would sometimes play games on that but only to try 3d out. Not anything major or heavy. Mainly to stream music,videos pics, itunes and play 3d movies

Just the cpu

You have to quote someone's post or else they don't get a notification you replied to them. 

Also, do you mean you just need a cpu? If so, what other parts do you already have?

 

If not, please clarify. What parts do you have and what parts do you need to get?
