Hey everyone,
I am starting a 1151 build for gaming and what-not and future-proofing etc. Maybe virtual reality at some point if it can handle it? But anyway, I was wondering if people would be willing to review this build and tell me how well they think it will work or if there's something wrong with my build, etc. Thanks in advance!
Here are the parts I am looking into:
Motherboard: MSI Gaming Z170A Gaming M5
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130873
Processor: Intel Core i5-6600K
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117561
CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro H105 Liquid Cooler
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835181060
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16gb (2x8gb) DDR4 3000
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820233852
(Not entirely sure which RAM sticks I should go for currently. I know they have to be DDR4, and I want 16gb of it. Any better sticks maybe?)
Graphics Card: Sapphire Nitro Radeon R9 390
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814202164
(Could potentially save up more and go for a 390x, thoughts on that? is the $100 extra worth it?)
PSU: EVGA GOLD 850w PSU (I already have this from a prior build)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438018
HDD: Western Digital Black 1TB HDD x2 raided (I already have these from a prior build)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822236625
Case: Corsair Obsidian 750D
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811139024
OS: Windows 10 Home
Another question: Do you think I should add a SSD into the build for the os?
Its also worth noting that I will be buying these parts separate, throughout the spring and early summer. So I don't have a distinctive budget, but I am not looking to buy the $450+ components, so please don't suggest those.
