So, I am wanting to order a new 1080P gaming pc and I cannot go over $925(cheaper is better for me, but I want the absolute BEST performance I can get with my money and im willing to spend a little extra if it comes with significant reliability and performance.). I will be using it for strictly gaming, with some multi tasking here and there and of course the basics. The biggest problems
for me in building a PC for me is picking the ssd, ram and the motherboard.
I dont want to get a cheap, unreliable motherboard, but at the same time I have a budget and cant go crazy. I also would love to order the Samsung Evo 850 50gb SSD, but have no money at the moment for it as in every build that I make it goes way over my budget. I'm planning on upgrading the SSD in like 1-2 years possibly if that helps at all.
As far as the ram goes I will be using a Hyper Evo 212, so Low Profile ram would probably be best for me as it may get tight sometimes trying to install the ram that is bigger in size.
Finally, I cannot decide whether to go with the Intel Xeon 1231 v3 or the i5 6600k. I do not plan on overclocking, and the Xeon seems to have i7 performance but at an i5 price without overclocking(which is AWESOME).
Then it comes back to what motherboard can actually be decent with this cpu, as most of the ones under $80 look sketchy as hell. Ill link 2 VERY similar builds so you can use them as a reference for what I am particularly looking for.
