depends on your budget and your needs.
do you only use it to game? listen to a lot of music and watch a lot of movies?
what's your budget?

My need is like you said kinda heavy games movies music,and some lightweight programs that i need for my automation college...im planning on spending about 170 euros for the gigabyte geforce GTX 1050 gaming g1 ti 4gb onther 220euros in intel core i5 6600k and 350 on motherboard and psu rams and cooler

alright then I suggest one of these boards (from cheapest to most expensive):

Gigabyte Z170(x):
- G1.Sniper
- Gaming 3
- UD3
- Gaming 5
- UD5

ASUS Z170
- Pro Gaming
- Pro Gaming Aura
- Pro
- Maximus VIII Ranger

and add a quality PSU like (roughly from best to worst):
- Corsair RMx/RMi
- EVGA Supernova P2 / G2 / GS
- Super Flower Leadex
- XFX XTR
- Seasonic G
- XFX TS Gold
- XFX Core / Pro / TS Bronze
- Seasonic M12II / S12II
- Corsair CXM550
- Super Flower King

speaking of a psu what watt should i aim for given the gpu and cpu i will be using?(igabyte geforce GTX 1050 gaming g1 ti 4gb , intel core i5 6600k)

Isokolon · Oct 27, 2016

450-550W

kosmas123 · Oct 27, 2016

Do you think with the mentioned above materials and a 8gb crucial hyper x ram will handle heave games

Isokolon · Oct 27, 2016

depends.
the 1050Ti will be a bit too weak for max settings @1080p for what I reckon

kosmas123 · Oct 27, 2016

what about the previous 1060 ti then?

Isokolon · Oct 27, 2016

there's no 1060Ti
but the 1060 would be the best bet as it can sustain 60+ fps on any game with maxed settings to date

kosmas123 · Oct 27, 2016

which would you preffer msi ori gigabyte then?any other suggstion on gpu besides the gtx 1060 at around 200 220 euros?

Isokolon · Oct 27, 2016

I'd go with the cheapest axial cooled card tbh. doesn't matter if it's ga or msi or pny or gainward
if the rx480 is cheaper, go with that

kosmas123 · Oct 27, 2016

well sorry for inconvenience im from greece and im not that good in english..what do you mean with ''axial cooled card'' :/

Isokolon · Oct 27, 2016

what I meant is... there are blower type cards, mostly cards with 1 fan that's not in the center of the card
and then there are the other, more common cards.

so if you find a dual-fan design by Gainward, it's just as fine as the MSI or the Gigabyte but most likely a bit cheaper

kosmas123 · Oct 27, 2016

do you think an i5 6600k would be too much for the pc im building cause i have heard that u should spent most on gpu then cpu and finally ram ofc

Isokolon · Oct 27, 2016

it depends on the games you wish to play and tasks you wish to fulfill mostly...

kosmas123 · Oct 27, 2016

Games like witcher3 gt5 ...high setting ofc...how does this built look to youhttp://pcpartpicker.com/list/RxpFXH i changed some parts and added the msi radeon rx480
