I am currently building an X99 model PC! It should run at about 300-400 FPS compared to my current 30 FPS. :3 With OptiFine, it should run at about 500-600 FPS. I have been working on the build for about a week now, but I don't have a lot of free time, so I have the parts, just not the time. Computer Specs: Intel Core i7-5820K 6-core processor 3.3 GHz (Overclocked to 4.0) MSI X99S Gaming 7 Motherboard Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB [2x8GB] Ram MSI NVIDIA GTX 970 4G running dual SLI Graphics cards Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB HDD NZXT H440 Steel Mid-Tower Case (BLK/RED) EVGA SuperNova 1000G2 80+ Gold PSU SAMSUNG 850 EVO SATA III SSD I may add some more components in the future, however, this is going to be a wicked fast computer. So it will do for now... >:3
X99 is completely overkill for just gaming. Should've gone high end Z97 or wait for Z170. Also should've waited for the 390/X to release.
Thia of is fine for me, and I can afford it, even though it may be overkill. And I will not just be playing minecraft though. I need a beefy computer for new games like Arkham Knight, Witcher III, etc. For minecraft however, my intentions were to go overboard.
