so recently i decided to move from console to pc while building my first pc build list
i decided to look up reviews for the gigabyte h170 d3hp when looking in the one egg
(i looked the reviews on newegg) i was horrified of the mobo so does anyone know
any good mobo for i7 6700
really no budget for mobo but before saying z170 i really dont see any good in getting one if i have no intention of oc

so after some time i came up with this
cpu intel core i7 6700
mobo asus maximus vii hero
ram corsair 16gb 2400mhz cl16
gpu msi gaming x gtx 1070
ssd,1samsung evo 850 500gb
ssd,2 samsung evo 850 250gb
psu antec edg 550
so i heard that the z170 has more features and most reviews are good so is it a good build ?

if i get the msi gtx 1070 sea hawk x is there a chance it will leak or something and is there a chance that a water block will leak?
