My Gaming PC Configuration - Update

[ChillaFilla]

Hello everyone!

 

A couple of days ago, I posted my gaming PC configuration. Overall, the feedback was positive, however, a few people mentioned that I should change a couple of components around. 

 

Before configuration:

 

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790 3.6 GHz Quad-Core Processor

 

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler

 

Motherboard: Asus Z97-A ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

 

Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

 

Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 120GB 2.5” Solid State Drive & Western Digital Black Series 3TB 3.5” 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

 

Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX Video Card

 

Case: Corsair 750D ATX Full Tower Case

 

Power Supply: Corsair RM 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

 

Optical Drive: Samsung SH-224DB/RSBS DVD/CD Writer

 

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 OEM (64-bit)

 

Wireless Network Adapter: Asus PCE-AC68 802.11a/b/g/n/ac PCI-Express x1 Wi-Fi Adapter

 

After Configuration:

 

CPU: Intel Core i7-4790 3.6 GHz Quad-Core Processor

 

CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler (I'm still trying to decide if I should keep this cooler, or use the cooler that comes with the CPU. Sombody mentioned that an aftermarket CPU cooler isn't worth it, as it don't change anything when I'm gaming).

 

Motherboard: Asus Z97-A ATX LGA1150 Motherboard (I'm keeping this motherboard, because in the future, I want to put in a K processor).

 

Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

 

Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 120GB 2.5” Solid State Drive & Western Digital Black Series 3TB 3.5” 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

 

Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX Video Card

 

Case: Corsair 750D ATX Full Tower Case

 

Power Supply: Corsair RM 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

 

Optical Drive: Samsung SH-224DB/RSBS DVD/CD Writer

 

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 OEM (64-bit)

 

 

Wireless Network Adapter: Asus PCE-AC68 802.11a/b/g/n/ac PCI-Express x1 Wi-Fi Adapter

 

If there are some things that I should change, please let me know. All feedback is much appreciated.

 

Thanks in advance!

if you are not going to overclock for now, get a xeon. Its a locked (unoverclockable) i7 with no iGPU (no internal graphics)
