So I've been thinking of upgrading my PC, but since I'm still a PC noob I'm still not sure what to buy, its good and everything but on somethings it lacks power, any ideas?

 

Here are my current tech specs:

MOBO: ASUS Maximus VI Formula

CPU: Intel I7-4770K @ 3.50GHz

RAM: Corsair Vengance 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 @ 1600MHz

GPU: GTX 780

PSU: Corsair AX1200i

If I had to upgrade something, it'd be the GPU. I'd probably wait for new releases, though.

You must be trolling. You won't need to upgrade this pc at least for the next 3-4 years.

Yea agreeing with most of the previous posters, you rig is still pretty wicked. GPU and an SSD would be the only logical upgrade path, but you can easily wait for the next gen GPU's, and don't know if you already are running an SSD.

Buy a 40" 4k display and upgrade your GPU when the new next gen stuff comes out

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
