Its time to upgrade !

[LASER]

 

Hi guys, 

 

Original post (pc built)

Few years later and my PC still works strong but i got the chance to upgrade my PC. I will swtich from AMD to INTEL first time in my life to go with intel. Because i got most of my parts that i will keep so i bought:




So full list of parts will be:

- Corsair Obsidian 450D Midi Tower
- ASUS GeForce STRIX GTX 970 4GB PhysX
-Seagate Barracuda® 1TB SATA 6Gb/s (SATA 3.0), 64MB Cache, 7200RPM, 3.5"
- Corsair RM750, 750W PSU ATX 12V V2.4, 80 Plus Gold
- Corsair H100i Hydro Series CPU Cooler 1150/1155/1156/1366/2011
- Samsung 850-Series EVO 250GB
- Corsair 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3000Mhz CL15 Vengeance
- ASUS STRIX Z270F GAMING
- Intel Core i7 7700K 4.2 GHz 8MB


What do u think? I will post some images when the build is done. The only thing i dont like is motherboard but i think it will be fine i dont overclock and this and this Asus formula Z that i have now it totally overkill for me. Plus i dont really know how good will h100i fit on new motherboard, i hope everything fits .

If it's only for gaming, then it's a nice upgrade.
IMO, you should upgrade your GPU too.

Assuming he plays at 1080p@60Hz, the 970 is plenty still.

 

Overall, yeah.. Good upgrade tbh.
