Please help me pick out PC parts (i5-6600K + GTX 1070)

[Cnacu6o]

Hey guys!

Could you help me pick out PC parts, please? I need pick out a motherboard, a CPU cooler, a power supply and a PC case. I am ready to spend no more than 205 euros. Expensive PC case isn't necessary for me.



Components

• CPU: Intel Core i5-6600K — 205 €
• GPU: Palit GeForce GTX 1070 Dual — 386 €
• Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16GB DDR4 3000MHz — 63 €
• HDD: WD Blue (WD10EZEX) — 42 €
• Monitor: BenQ XL2411Z — 226 €

In the future, I plan to overclock a CPU and buy an SSD.

I'll be ordering PC parts on Computeruniverse.

Thanks!

How about this motherboard:

I own it myself with a i5 6500 and gtx1070

PSU

Buy at least a 500Watt 80+ Gold PSU.


205 Euros is not enough for a good motherboard, cpu cooler and a good psu and a case.

The cheapest z170 board, seems to be about €90.

Something like the Corsair Vengeance 550W, €53, which is superb actually. That unit is a beast.

Then you have more than €40 on cooling.

+ he wants a case as well...

several Phanteks cases have been on sale lately for pretty cheap. Mid tower ATX cases. I'd recommend Fractal, or phanteks. there are several other good manufacturers, but I Personally like the two i mentioned. Sadly, Phanteks IS known for using Shitty components in some of there Cases(i have personal experience, and it has been admitted to me by phanteks on a single occasion)., regardless though, they are still some of the best looking, and have great functionality.

A cheap list. Dunno how the motherboard is, but seriously that PSU is rocking. That is the 650W model, but I assume it's the same platform.

Nice, ok just under 200 Euros but I'm not sure about that motherboard since he wants to OC, ok it's possible....But.... I'd say, don't cheap out on the motherboard!

Assuming this is a gaming PC, u need an SSD now for better performance in certain games such as BF4, civilization 5, fallout 4, and a few others, which cuts the annoying loading times by half. Also certain games like Diablo3 have stuttering issues if installed on normal HDD. Ur setup parts are beastly already, dont cripple it by saving on the important part.

that mobo wont work as it takes DDR3 ram, OP already stated having DDR4. most z170 mobos will do fine for OCing. this one should do fine https://www.computeruniverse.ru/en/products/90619690/msi-z170-a-pro.asp although i would recommend a better one if i were building it

Normally, the saying "u buy cheap, u get cheap" applies here, especially with computer parts. If you want quality, stability and longevity, you WILL have to spend a bit more than 200 euros.....

Now this is not to say that you should not look for bargains, sales, bundle deals, clearance items etc, but just do your homework on every component, try to narrrow down your choices to 2 or 3, then go shopping & be happy ...

What the hell are you talking about? ANY modern HDD won't have stuttering with those games. I'm running a WD Caviar Green from 2009, 90% full and still doesn't stutter. There is no point to get an SSD for games if someone is on a budget.

Quit trying to get the OP to waste money on junk they don't need. The best combo for this current time and for a good time being is an SSD for boot/programs and an HDD for games/storage.

Oh and i ran games off a 5400rpm laptop drive from 2009 and that didn't stutter in any games that stream massive amounts of data from the drive.

I'm not telling him to buy "junk". an SSD is not a junk and based on the specs of all the other hardware he selected, not using an SSD will cripple the gaming performance of the system he is building if he plays some off the games I mentioned.
Currently there are a lot of cheap SSD in the market, no theres very little reason to cheap out on that.
It was discussed before on reddit which of the games that can have significant improvement installing it in SSD

Go ahead and spend your own money on your own opinions that contribute nothing to this thread. All SSDs do for games is speed up the 5 second loading times. OP is on a BUDGET that does not include spending $300+ on a 1TB SSD for games and storage. Maybe once a 1TB SSD is $60 then sure we all can move over but for now it's stupid to waste such amount of money because you're too impatient to wait for a game to load.

Oh and it doesn't matter what his specs is, so you should quit about the bs you're spilling with that logic because reading that little reddit thread? All it does is loading times are improved. That's strictly not gaming "performance." No FPS, draw calls, or utilization improvement at all across the board oh but your impatience is SOOOO fixed.

Corsair 200R -49e
MSI Z170A Pro - 87e
XFX Core Ed 550W -50e
Cooler Master 212 Evo -27e

this PSU has one 6 pin and one 6+2 pin power connector ! Be careful about the video card

Get low profile memory for huge coolers

if your monitor is 1920x1080 which i think that 1 is you really should go with an rx480 GPU and put the 200 dollars saved towards an SSD. You will be so much happier with that combo vs a standard hdd and gtx 1070. While it is true SSD's only decrease loading times they also make restarting the pc a 5 second affair and you can hammer it with multi tasking and it makes your pc feel like every program you run is already stored in the ram. Just makes everything snappier and is a better use of the 200 dollars then getting a gtx 1070 for a 60hz 1920x1080 monitor
