Hello Guys,

 

I just upgraded my motherboard to a MSI Z270 SLI pro.

 

My Setup now:

 

Cpu : Intel i5- 6400

CPU Cooler : Cooler master Hyper TX3 evo

Motherboard : MSI Z270 SLI pro

Gpu : MSI Gtx 960 4gb

Ram : Corsair vengeance 16 gb 3000mhz

psu : corsair CX 450w

HDD : WD 1tb blue

SSD : Sandisk Ultra 2 , 240 gb

Case : NZXT S340 black.

 

Now my question was what i could best upgrade next.

 

Im thinking about maybe upgrading my cpu to a I7 or maybe my gpu but i really don’t know.

 

I play games like:

 

- Ark : survival evolved

- PUBG

- LOL

- Tomb raider

- Attack on Titans / Wings of freedom

- Rocket league

- Tera

 

Hope u could help me.

 

Kind regards,

 

Jeroen

If you upgrade your CPU to a 7700k, you will need a much better cooler. You can get a used 7700k for 150-200ish now adays, and then think about upgrading your GPU later. 

 

Also Just be careful of that PSU, you will be on the edge if you upgrade your CPU and GPU.

CPU and cooler are the main ones, the rest of your components are solid.

Or you can go with an i7-7700 (non K). The performance gains from a 7700k is not going to be significant in the games you play

He'll be fine with a i7 7700 and a GTX 1080.

 

 

OP: GPU????

@Zirlexer Go with 650W to be safe with the 7700k.

Would the Corsair CX650M nice ?

@Zirlexer Maybe the CORSAIR TX-M Series 650W?

that would be a nice one yeah. for a price of 90 euro is it worth it ? 

The best thing about it is that i semi modulair,

 

How about the Corsair RMx series RM650x ? for only 10 euro’s more. maybe better for further upgrades ?
