I'm trying to get the parts so I can build a PC for my 13 year old boy. I haven't built a PC in over 15 years so my age might show. This is what I have so far:
1. Cooler Master HAF X Flagship Full Tower ATX RC-942-KKN1 PC Computer Case
2. MSI Z170A Gaming M7 LGA1151 Motherboard
3. Intel 6th Generation Core i7-6700 LGA1151 Skylake Processor
4. 500GB Samsung 850Evo SSD 3D NAND FLASH
5. EVGA GeForce GTX 960 4GB SSC GAMING ACX 2.0+
6. Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB (2x4GB) DDR4 DRAM 3000MHz C15 Memory Kit
I still need a power supply and I'm thinking of getting him 16 GB instead of 8GB. He runs steam games and his current PC barely runs fallout 4. The PC is really old so I need to replace it. His current monitor is 1080p but I will be getting him a better monitor sometime in August of 2016 with a better resolution.
I'm not planning on overclocking it as anything that I give him will be much better than what he has right now. His internet connection is via a wireless card in the current PC and don't plan on him connecting via cable.
Your thoughts, advice and time spent helping me would be greatly appreciated and I thank you for it.
