I have a limited budget, and I want to ugrade my PC.

Specs

Mobo: Z97K

CPU: G3258

GPU: GTX 750TI FTW

RAM: 8gb DDR3

Cooler: H100I

 

The two upgrades I want to get are an "MSI GeForce GTX 1050 Ti GAMING 4G," and an "i5-4690k". The prblem is, I can only get one or the other. I mostly game on my PC, thought you might want to knw. It would be greatly appreciated if I could have help deciding which one to get.

 

Thanks, Ryan

Oddly buying a G3258 with a H100i really is not a great idea but I still respect the idea of upgrade path if have this build I would go with i5-4690k get and OC it the hell out of it and try to sell your G3258 in for some cash and if your planning to pair the 4690k to a 1050 Ti try to save up more cash and pair it with a 1060 or 1070? but this will be base on your resolution and game title. oddly for some people if your playing any E Sport Games going far beyond 1060 will be useless in the case I have seen unless you will play them at 4k on max setting.

You have the Right MoBo for the Unlock i5 go for it and you already invested a AIO so going for the 4690k will highly benefit you in some way but keep in mind that you might get your 750ti in overtime catching up with your 4690k.
