Buy the h110i and gtx 1070. Overclock the 3770k some. And you wouldn't get bottlenecked for years to come.

i was wondeirng about this aswell. but i herd mixed reviews on the 1070 working on Pz877-v lk my motherboard? If this woudl work this would defilty be an optino atleast for a while until i decided to pay for a new cpu/ram/mobo (wouldnt need for a while then ) could everything exisiting minus my case/gpu/cooler

For gaming...not much difference.
The newer motherboards have a few more bells and whistles, they support DDR4, M.2 SSDs, and would be under warranty, and still available. The CPUs have better IGPs. The 1151 socket will support the 7000 series CPUs, when they come out.


It really doesn't matter unless your motherboard decides to fail...then you will need to upgrade. Unless you're happy with used.

Ghot your like the PC build Guru.

Just purcahsed the r5 case going to slowly purcahse the other parts and just go for the for the regular build i was planning rather then the cheaper alternative of just overclocking my current. Rather have newer stuff!

Sure if you have the money.
The current hardware is worth selling tho.

Yeah I may sell the current stuff. One thing I'm stuck with now is what cooler to use for the i7 6700k on thr asus z170 a . Fan or something like h110i is there much noise difference or cooling difference. Last think I'm stuck on deciding like nactua or h110i

You could do both. Get the h110i and use Noctua fans on it.

The only thing I don't like about the Noctua **15 is that you have to disassemble it to get at your RAM.

currently what im getting with my current setup this is with cs go running it goes up to cpu temp at 64

You didn't mention what CPU cooler you have on your current build.

But, Intel CPUs can go to 70-75C w/o dying. You're probably in a warm room, and that Thermaltake Level 10 gt, is not exactly known for it's great cooling.

i agree i highly dislike hte level 10 gt haha so giant aswell as built in usbs gave out etc and more haha. but my biggest concernt now is what im going to use for my cooler for my i7 for my new build. i was really thinking the h110i or h100i but im hearing mounting issues in the r5? or is it odd and hdd removal cages. wondeirng if a air is better or i can get away mounting the h100i
