Doesn't look good for me, no blue leds on ram. No titan z.. oh well.

Nope , you need an
i7 4960x
16gb DDR4
Two Titan Z's
Kidding aside, google isnt hard to use. So yes you can run watchdogs....
I knew it.... So I am not getting the game.
Get the i7, a lot of games are already asking for processors like 4770k or 3770. For example Shadow of mordor and Watch dogs.
Not a valid reason, alot of those same games are recommending AMD FX 8's along with those i7's. There is only a couple of reasons why these developers are suggesting i7's FX 8's for recommended specs.
1. The Games do support 8 threads so you get abit more performance vs i5's AMD quads/hexacores.
2. They are being promoted to get a *bonus* for suggesting both brands best cpu's
3. Or the game/s coding with the lack of correct cpu usage require hefty cpu processing from both brands best cpu's to get the job done right. Plenty of examples of developers suggesting the best cpu's and or upper end ones when in fact only use a portion of the cpu's processing power and have to use brute force from 1-2 cores to get through. And if that is the case the AMD cpu's are in trouble.
Chances are its combination of 1&2. The difference between i5's and i7's even with games that make use of 8 threads is small your talking about single number digits for FPS. And i7's processing power is nearly the same as i5's. And then i5's perform equal or better then those FX 8's with those games that make use of 8 threads and are usually on the coat tails of the i7 within 2-3 fps average behind

It's better to be safe than sorry. I would pay the 70 extra and get an i7. It was already shown that in heavy cpu situations like BF4 MP the i7 shines compared to i5's. 20 more minimum fps and about 15 more average. It's definitely worth it for next gen games. I think Watch dogs will see similar results.
