pick up a 4790k and a z77 mobo you should be fine, if you want a big upgrade get a ryzen chip

Either close those 50 tabs or get some more ram. I don't see a need to upgrade if you only play cs. Also I'm pretty sure that problem happens to everyone where you mess with your other monitor and it causes to minimize your game on your main monitor. Only game I've found to not do this is R6 siege.

Lol basically "get the most powerful LGA 1150 CPU and you'll be fine" xD

 

A 4790k is definitely overkill.
