Hey guys, I am pretty hopeless when it comes to hardware, never put a PC together, so this is more of a "will it fit together" sort of thing. I am also limited by where I am buying from, so unless something seems terribly overpriced for what it does, I am more interested in how it might run (and fit in the case) together.
All prices are inflated by our great EU taxes, just keep that in mind-
System Usage - Gaming has priority, some light video editing, steaming and 3ds Max.
Overclocking: - Some slight OC, but not immediately.
SLI: - In the future perhaps, certainly would like to keep it an option.
Notes - No SSD yet, my budget is strained to a breaking point, but I will buy it later on.
Specs
Case: Zalman Z3 Plus - 48$
Motherboard: MSI Z170 KRAIT GAMING - Intel Z170 - 157$
CPU: Intel Core i5-6600K - 300$
GPU: GIGABYTE GTX 980 G1 GAMING 4GB - 612$
Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 2133 - 103$
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 - 1TB - 58$
CPU Cooler: Scythe SCNJ-4000 Ninja 4 - 50$
PSU: EVGA SuperNOVA 650 GS 650W - 116$
Total: 1444$ish
Main concerns:
Am I missing something?
The case should have some basic fans packed with it to get some airflow in the case going, but will I be able to keep reasonable temperatures?
Will everything fit in the case space and dimensions-wise?
Is the PSU good enough to sustain the system as is? Can it handle slight OC at least on the CPU?
Have I created a bottleneck anywhere aside from the lack of an SSD?
Is the motherboard just an overpriced "gaming in the name" trap to catch the wallets of the innocent (like me), or is it decent?
Thank you for you time and your advice.
