[Richdogbignob]

This is my first gaming 1440p PC build, I have the parts and done a lot of research and even based it close to an existing build by a popular youtuber, however i have changed mine a little so it needs revising before i purchase it so any comments on bottle-necking / compatibility would be great.

Parts list:

GPU:                           ASUS GTX1070 STRIX

I would get a 4790k instead or a 4790 and would get a MSI 1070 but the gpu is personal preference

Is there a difference between the 4770 and 4790, and worth the upgrade??

I would go with a Skylake 6700. No point in getting older hardware when it isn't significantly cheaper. Keep in mind you would need to get a different mobo and RAM.
