Good day everyone. Im new to this forum and this will be my first custom build as well. Firstly i'll show you what I plan on buying:

Sharkoon VG4-W case
Seasonic SS-620GM M12II 620W Modular 80 Plus Bronze Certified Desktop Power Supply
I5 6500 3.2GHz
G.Skill F4-2400C15D-16GVS Ripjaws 16GB (2 x8GB) DDR4 2400MHz CL15 1.20V RAM
WD Blue 1TB 64MB Cache HDD

With regards to motherboard i am looking at the Gigabyte B150m-D3H Skylake micro atx or asus H170 Plus, unless someone could recommend a better board in the same price range.

For the main reason for this post, i am stuck between choosing between the Biostar or Galax GPU. Both are 4GB versions. Has anyone used any of these? And does anyone have experience with the Biostar GPU?

Biostar GPU - http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/vga/introduction.php?S_ID=214
Galax GPU - http://www.galax.net/GLOBAL/960exoc_4gb.html

Apologies for the lengthy post. Any help and advice is appreciated.
 
Solution
Between the two Galax (formerly known as Galaxy) probably more commonly known internationally than Biostar. if you habe no preference just take which ever is cheaper to you.

thank you for your response. the Galax is currently on special so i can get it for just a little bit more than the biostar. i dont mind paying the bit extra if theres going to be an advantage in performance and lifespan of the Galax.
