ik if you look at my earlier post I told him if his pc was good enough for now to just wait for another Gen of cpu beyond Skylake and same with the gpu, skylake isn't that much of an improvement to have to go buy new mobo cpu and ram for a but better performance

IMO Haswell is a much better choice ATM considering it will eliminate 99% of bottlenecks and the r9 280 is still a great GPU.

exactly if I was him I wouldn't upgrade yet,I plan on keeping my 970 unil the generation after pascal and I'll replace my 4690k when it can no longer be overclocked enough to handle gpu upgrades
