[PB] My New PC!

[TheMinecraftzx]

Recently picked up a nice PC from Best Buy. Sounds like another pre-built crap huh? Almost, but not there yet. I cant overclock it because it has a H97 on board. But it is upgradable.

Specs
CPU - Intel Core i7 (4790)
GPU - NVIDIA GTX 760 (reference)
RAM - 16 GB
HDD - 2 TB + My trusty 1 TB external!
(Asus G20AJ-US009) I think

Monitor: 1080p (I know its 2015 i need a 1440p at least, but no $$$) Asus MX279H
Really nice.

Is that the normal Core i7 4790 or the K version?

Nice system

[TheMinecraftzx]

It is the normal core i7

Full HD 1080p is completely fine, I'd reccomend getting a 144hz 1ms monitor though if you play FPS games / like your screen smooth as butter, haha. Other than that it looks like a really neat system, would you mind posting a picture of it?

I just thought I'd ask as you cannot overclock the Core i7 4770, it needs to be the K model. So you'd have to change both the Motherboard (to Z97 as you know already) and also the CPU.

But not like you need to the Core i7 4770 is fast as fuck.

did you typo 4790 or did you mean that you cant oc the 4770?

I meant 4790, my bad. But yes you cannot overclock the Core i7 4770 or Core i7 4790. You can only overclock the K versions. 4770K and 4790K.
