The Xeon E3 is basically an i7 4770 without IGP and 0.1 GHz slower only. If you want to OC, then you can consider i7 4770K. You will need a Z87 board though, else the H87 is good enough already.

Bro, any Z87 for recommend?

Try Asrock Z87 Extreme 3, RM499. It has dual x8/x8  CF/SLI capability, in case you plan to run dual card setup in future. But as I have mentioned earlier, you don't really need a Z87 board unless you plan to OC your processor.

i personally favor the asrock Z87 Extreme 3 . .
for the SSD, my fren recommend samsung 840 Pro wo . .

Just swap out those parts you want from my build (add in below) and you're good to go.

Intel Core i7 4770K
Asrock Z87 Extreme 3
Samsung 840 Pro

Some question on the mobo . .
I find that the fatal1ty z87killer is selling at RM549 (original 1049). .
Is that a good mobo to go?

Toxic has a slightly higher boost clock speed of 1150 MHz vs. 1100 MHz on the Matrix Platinum. It is also a very long card, nearly 12.25" so make sure your casing has enough space. While Matrix Platinum is a very thick card, taking up nearly 3 slots. smile.gif

yo Rav3n82 . .
Thx for the advice again . .
U think the fatality killer can go in with sapphire R9-280X?

Not recommend the nvidia card?
780/770?

Sure the mobo can fit la. Just check your casing's clearance only. biggrin.gif

Actually, now the GTX 770 / 780 is quite attractive once again. Check their latest revised prices at Garage Sales. smile.gif

Thats why la bro . .
