Recommend you to go for sapphire 290 trix oc and a single stick of 8gb ram so that you can add another one if needed.

Thank you for all of your replies, i am very
thankful for all of your opinions! :)

there are a lot of sites that have benchmarked
the GTX 780/780ti and the R9 290/290X and
all in all they will all do what i need them to
do with not too much of a difference in
performance.
so a price tag on the 780ti is a little
too much.
so considering the price of the other 3 i just
really want the card that will be most relied
upon to not give any driver problems or any
other problems that can come up with a
graphics card.

is it true that Nvidia cards are better known
for there reliability than AMD cards?

so all in all i just want to have a GPU that i can
rely on for the next 2-3 years without a
problem.

RIG IS FOR WITCHER-3 :D :D :D :D

Right off the assembly line
There is nothing wrong in getting a Xeon for gaming. It's more powerful than a equally priced i5.

Can be an issue when you go for resale during your next upgrade. Hardly any in the general public will for a Xeon considering its not meant for the masses. My suggestion to the op, go with the i5

For HDD - Get Seagate 2TB or Wd red 2TB (wd provides better service support)

For Cabinet - Nzxt Phantom 410 white @ 6.2k

For Gpu - Sapphire R9 290 Tri x @ 36k

Ofcourse this is overkill for 1080p,but will not be overkill for future :wink:

There is no problem with amd gpu,both nvidia and amd make top quality products,Amd drivers have improved a lot now.

R9 290 is great for price,it performs slight behind then r9 290x/780ti for almost 10-12k less price :)

What is the difference b/w WD Red, Blue, Green and Black?? :D :confused:

Will that cabinet provide better air flow than the CM 690 III??

:agreed: for gpu :)

Buddy, do a little google search. There are couple of Xeon Processors available, for both LGA 1155 and KGA 1150 sockets. They are basically Core i7 nok K CPUs with ECC Ram support.
Check this one: Newegg.com - Intel Intel Xeon E3-1230V3 Haswell 3.3GHz 8MB L3 Cache LGA 1150 80W Quad-Core Server Processor BX80646E31230V3. In India, it is available around 17K price point.
