Good day everyone,

This is my very first post here. Just wanted to say hi, and ask everyones opinion on my new parts coming in.
My gaming rig i built back in 2011.

The list is as follows:
ASUS M4A88T-V EVO/USB3 AM3 AMD 880G USB 3.0 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard
​
HyperX Blu 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 Desktop Memory Model KHX1333C9D3B1K2/4G (I currently have 8 gigs of this)

Amd Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition 3.4Ghz Quad-Core Processor 8Mb Cache 125W socket AM3 desktop CPU

EVGA 01G-P3-1563-KR GeForce GTX 560 Ti Superclocked (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

I am replacing these components with the following:

GIGABYTE G1 Gaming GA-Z170X-Gaming 3 (rev. 1.0) LGA 1151 Intel Z170 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB (2 x 8G) DDR4 2400 Desktop Memory DIMM (288-Pin) RAM HX424C15FB2K2/16 (For a total of 32gigs)

Intel Core i5-6600K 6M Skylake Quad-Core 3.5 GHz LGA 1151 91W BX80662I56600K Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 530

GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 750Ti 4GB WINDFORCE 2X OC EDITION


I personally think these are all great upgrades. But, i would like your opinion as well.
Thank you for your time,

CPU, board and RAM look good but the GPU is old and quite slow. Maybe look at a GTX 960 instead since it's the newest and is much faster than the 750 Ti. The 560 Ti might even be faster than the 750 Ti...
 
Greetings,

That sounds like a nice upgrade. Also per spirit I would look at another card. The 750Ti in your case isn't really worth buying. I'd start looking at a 960 or above as well for a reasonable upgrade. As it stands you would have similar performance by just moving the 560 into your new rig. :)
 
You could get 16GB of RAM instead of 32GB and then put the money to a better graphics card.

I think you are correct, I will not be getting the 750 V-Card.
I think i will save my money and wait for the 4th of July sales and grab a nice "on super sale" Videocard.

Thank you all for the advice :D
