im looking to buy a new cpu and gpu but need suggestions! i currently have i5-4670k at 3.4 ghz, and a msi gtx 650 ti boost 2gb. looking for advice on if i should buy both or just a new gpu because i know for sure that i need to upgrade that. if so tell me what i should i get. i prefer intel for cpu and nvidia for gpu's. my budget is 600-700 dollars maybe less i just dont know how much i should put into it ;/

EDIT: not opposed to getting an amd gpu, just looking for the best performance for my buck

Your CPU will be absolutely fine for a while, so I would just get a new GPU.

A [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] would be the best option, but what are the specs of the rest of your system? Install [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] and post a screenshot.

It's a bit over budget, but CPU and GPU. You get a hyperthreaded CPU and hella high end GPU. 980Ti is better, but the Fury is still a ballin' card, especially if you OC it properly. I wouldn't personally get the Fury X because of the AIO lmao.

What power supply do you have? You may be better off getting a 970/390 and a better monitor.
