My VGA : R9 290X Sapphire Tri X
Get a new GPU (980Ti), or a 2nd 290/290X. Then get a new monitor (1440P 144Hz, or 4K).
With your GPU, i7 6700K platform is a total waste when an after-market 980TI smashes the 290X. Before you even get to a 1440P monitor or 980TI level of GPU performance, you shouldn't even be thinking Sklylake unless you upgrade on the very cheap after selling the 4790K platform.

Agreed.. 4K is still not the future... 144 Hz 1440p is the target now.Forget 4K, 1440p 144Hz is so much win.
This. Or wait for the next generation of GPUs. (Pascal et. al.)Get a new GPU (980Ti), or a 2nd 290/290X.
What games?
Thoughts on Ivy Bridge owners like me with a 3770k? I have mine sitting at 4.3ghz and have been holding out. I like the possibility of the Broadwell-E lineup being 6-core, 8-core and 10-core. I may jump on the enthusiast bandwagon if that happens. Reading the Skylake reviews I'm just not super impressed and don't see a 6700k being much of an improvement. Thoughts?

Friends, Upgraded graphics card do you recommend Instead of processors
Thank You GUYS .
No way. No need to upgrade for at least 2 more generations, IMO.

Hi Friends
My CPU: Intel Corei7 4790K , I decided to upgrade (CPU).
To increase efficiency In The GAME.
In your opinions, how effective were upgraded to SKYLAKE.
Or wait for the next generation.
It's not worth the cost to upgrade. There are only going to be an occasional situation where the i7 shows real improvements, and even then it'll likely be hard to tell.
Wait a few years. CPU's don't need upgrading every couple years like GPU's. They last many years between upgrade cycles as long as you buy a good one, which you did.
With Intels 3-5% tick-tock increases. It would be 10 years before you see a 30% improvement compared to todays CPUs.
So I would say wait till 2025 before looking at upgrading the cpu.
