only problem with i7 is the hyper threading on games, due to games these days well certain few only use hyper thread, reason if i was to get the i7 would be for future gaming. when games use hyper threads, i have also be looking into a new 3d monitor for the 3d games

reason why i want the 4x due to split ddr ram channels, I have been told from a mate of mine, if i was to use full 2x 8 gig it would but pressure on the ram, you wont get full ram speeds, unless u had the full set like 32 gig as 4x sets, in long run would cost alot more.
tbh i would like to know what is the best Z87 Boards, as that's all really needed especially for the price, i have been told the Gigbyte-OC z87 board are good and better than asus brand for performance, but i am in 2 minds really

That is a very nice set-up mate, just out interest why 4x4gig of ram? Why not 2 8 sticks? You could probably get some higher speed stuff (2400 or 2666hz) for the same price.
Other than that, it all looks good. Just out of interest, where are you getting it from?
I know this is all your opinion but bench marking wise, intel and nvidia have always come out on top. This is not taking price in to consideration.
Dk
