Hey Freedom! Family :) I'm going to build a PC and here are the parts:

Intel Core i5-4690K Devil's Canyon 3.5GHz 6MB
Seagate Barracuda ST2000DM001 3.5" 2TB 64MB 7200RPM HDD
Corsair CX750M 750W 80PLUS Bronze Semi-Modular Power Supply
MSI B85-G43 Gaming Motherboard
G.Skill 8GB Kit (2x4GB) DDR3 Trident X C10 2400MHz
Asus GeForce GTX970 STRIX 4GB PEAK GDDR5 2xDVI HDMI DisplayPort
Aerocool Battlehawk Black Mid Tower Case w/Side Panel Wind

I'm wondering what sort of performance I would get from this build or just opinions on it in general.
All feedback is welcome! :)

That should play any game... its similar in power to my pc...
only big difference is you got 8gb of system ram... and i use 16gb...

And you got 4gb video ram... i only have 2gb... i have 2 gtx 960s.

But... basically that build sounds very good...

If your interested in comparing...
i have

AMD 8350
16GB 1866mghz
2 gtx 960s

and i can play any modern game 1080p 60fps... only reason i stream at 720p is due to internet speed.

And i can play most older games, indie games, or simpler games at 4k...



By the way... if you plan on recording footage on the same machine you need a seperate hard drive for that... 7200rpm and up...
