Hello All,
I'm looking to build a primarily gaming PC at a pretty good budget..
Is the x99 platform better than the z97 for this purpose ?
Does it justify the price difference on components as the x99 will need DDR4, a 5 series CPU.. all of which are more expensive.
I'm also planning to keep it for about 4 years ! So, is the Hexacore a worthy investment ?
PS: There will be OC involved, watercooled loops, 2 way SLI for sure, Maybe 3 in the future...
