Hey guys...i am looking to upgrade from my I5 2500k z68 setup. I have $1200 to spend on a new mobo, cpu, RAM, and water cooling for the CPU.
I was lookin at the egg and of course all the 6th gen i7 cpu's are out of stock.
My question is....what would be the best upgrade path? Wait for the 6th gen CPU's to come back in stock, or go ahead with a2011 v3 build?
I was looking at a gigabyte board in socket 2011 v3
a I7 5930k with 40 pcie lanes.
Gskill quad channel DDR4 3000 Ram
and a Hyperx 240gb Pcie SSD.
Silverstone CPU water cooling
I already have 2x 980 Ti cards for SLI.
The toal on these partsd would be 1160$ within my budget.
Solid setup? Anyone have any different suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
