That is what I have together. Great Cpu and graphics card in my opinion but will saving the money at the mother board, storage, and case make any difference? The build is completely compatible with each other, just would like a second opinion whether I will get the same output with a cheaper but reliable mother board like so.

Please let me know any suggestions or ideas. I am open to all thoughts from others, thank you!

I'd suggest getting the 6500 over the 6600 because you won't be overclocking. Also suggest just spending the like 5-10 dollars and get that 500b PSU just for future purpose.

If you're going to get a H110 board I'd go with a 16gb kit (2 x 8gb) over the 8gb kit because you only have 2 slots to work with and if you want to expand in the future you'll have to replace the ram.

I agree with this.



A 120w GPU paired with a 65w CPU do not need a 500w unit. Every year the power requirements for desktop components drop, so I don't think a larger unit is necessary.
