Hi everyone!
I would like to upgrade my i7-2600 to a X99 platform (probably i7-5820K, but considering i7-5930K if it's worth the extra money).
My current rig was already upgraded because I upgraded to a Gigabyte GTX770 OC.
This is the current build:
OEM Dell mobo
i7-2600
16GB OEM Dell ram
Gigabyte GTX770 OC
Corsair RM650 powersupply
500GB Samsung EVO SSD
Fractal Design Arc R2
Corsair H100i
Fan controller
Will also upgrade GPU to 9xx series (GTX980) and maybe later go for SLI setup (but never more than 2).
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
Gaming, Photoshop, Video editing (in that order)
2) What's your budget? Are tax and shipping included?
Everything that makes sense. 1000 max
3) Which country do you live in? If the U.S, please tell us the state and city if possible.
Belgium (buy everything from this shop: https://translate.google.com/transl.../page.html?tk=7&hgid=289&tgid=4139&edit-text= )
4) What exact parts do you need for that budget? CPU, RAM, case, etc. The word "Everything" is not a valid answer. Please list out all the parts you'll need.
Mobo, CPU, Ram
5) If reusing any parts, what parts will you be reusing? Please be especially specific about the power supply. List make and model.
Gigabyte GTX770 OC
Corsair RM650 powersupply
500GB Samsung EVO SSD
Fractal Design Arc R2
Corsair H100i
6) Will you be overclocking?
Yes, lightly 4.0-4.2Ghz maybe
7) What is the max resolution of your monitor? What size is it?
1920x1200 24", later maybe going to 34" LG (3440x1440)
8) When do you plan on building/buying the PC?
Within 2 weeks
9) What features do you need in a motherboard? RAID? Firewire? Crossfire or SLI support? USB 3.0? SATA 6Gb/s? eSATA? Onboard video (as a backup or main GPU)? UEFI? etc.
Nothing special
5.1 surround support is must
10) Do you already have a legit and reusable/transferable OS key/license? If so, what OS? Is it 32bit or 64bit?
Yes, win 8.1 Pro
If possible I would prefer a simple looking mobo. Black or black and white. But if these aren't any good I am up to anything. ASRock, Asus, Gigabyte and MSI are available for purchase.
Thank you in advance!
