you should be able to. one major gripe though:

you can't take full advantage of the 4690K on a H97 motherboard, you need a Z97 motherboard for that.

Aftermarket 980Ti >= Fury X >= Reference 980Ti > Fury > 980 > 390X > 390 >= 970 > 380X > 380 >= 960 > 950 >= 370 > 750Ti = 360

"The Orange Box" || CPU: i5 4690k || RAM: Kingston Hyper X Fury 16GB || Case: Aerocool DS200 (Orange) || Cooler: Cryorig R1 Ultimate || Storage: Kingston SSDNow V300 240GB + WD Black 1TB || PSU: Corsair RM750 || Mobo: ASUS Z97-A || GPU: EVGA GTX 970 FTW+

"Unnamed Form Factor Switch" || CPU: i7 6700K || RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB || Case: Phanteks Enthoo Evolv Mini ITX (White) || Cooler: Cryorig R1 Ultimate (Green Cover) || Storage: Samsung 850 Evo 1TB || PSU: XFX XTR 550W || Mobo: ASUS Z170I Pro Gaming || GPU: EVGA GTX 970 FTW+

I'd advise you get a Z97 board, not an H97.

 

Also, that hard drive. Change to a WD Blue. They are way more reliable than Barracudas.

 

Can't really think of anything else, though...

Not much point if the computer doesn't have a side panel window.

Ok fine. Your smarter and better and I'm so proud of you! By they way, good luck on your quest to Half life 3.

You can stop being so pissy and goddamn vitriolic now.

There was no reason for you to ask if he was an AMD fanboy; he recommended a card that would potentially be more ideal for you than what you intend to get.

I'm sorry if one man has swayed your perception of this community as a whole, but at the end of the day......it was you who instigated it.

In the future, don't call someone (or even ask if they are) a fanboy. That results in a circle jerk that is NEVER fun to read.
