Decided to do some upgrades let me know what you think or if i need to change anything. I am still going to use the 750TI in a smaller comp for my tv.

Old
GPU: GEFORCE GTX 750TI
CPU: AMD 4130 Quad
Motherboard: MSI AM3 V X16? i think
PSU: 450w of something (was on sale not really sure what it is)

New
GPU: ASUS GEFORCE GTX 1060 6GB (cancelled looking at 1070s..)
CPU: I5 6600k 3.5ghz (cancelled looking at I7 7700k....)
I dont know what i want now...
Motherboard: ASUS Z270
PSU: CORSAIR CX650M
and adding a Cooler master hyper 212


Also anyone know of any mini cases that can facilitate a dual fan GPU?
And shoul di just suck it up and spend the extra 250 on a 1070 and i7 7700?

I went 7700k as well. No real gain if you don't plan on keeping it for at least 3-4 years imo

1070 is worth the price if u can afford it, compared to the 1060.

I'm waiting for an open box 1070 myself.

i bought a 6600k and asus z170 matx board at micro center, went back and swapped when the 7700k/asus z270 matx boards were in stock
was a $53 difference - gained an additional m.2 slot and wifi/bluetooth.

best decision ever lol

Nice upgrades. I am using a 6gb g1 gaming 1060 atm, if you get the 1070 let me know how it is!
