THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP IN ADVANCE!
Intended use
Hello this upgrade will be my main gaming PC. I already have this (https://pcpartpicker.com/b/W2GfrH)
I want to be ready when sales happen. I also wanted to know if I should wait for windows 10 and dx12 before I should make a decision.
I have been looking at the 4690k. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10440897&PID=5961731&SID=0) I am wondering however which mobo setup would be recommended
My old pc,the FX 8150 and the 990fx mobo with it, would be my second PC setup for streaming and rendering.
If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, FPS, game settings)
I am looking to play games like bf4, evolve etc in 144fps when I can. I already have r9 290s in crossfire and am getting most games at 100fps+ if not more. The games are running on a single screen 1080p. The second monitor I have is mostly for chatting with my viewers.
What is your budget?
I would like to keep the budget around 600 dollars.
In what country are you purchasing your parts?
USA
Post a draft of your potential build here (specific parts please). Consider formatting your parts list.
i4690k

Samsung 850 EVO 500gig

TL;DR
Upgrade as soon as items become on sale or wait for dx12/win 10 and skylake?Do you guys think its worth upgrading or waiting for real world benchmarks of Dx12 and Win 10?
