Im not very good when it comes to gaming computers so I just want to ask, what high graphic games would this run? I don't have any in mind I would just like a gaming PC so I can play different games if I want. here are the specs
BitFenix Aegis Core Blue microATX Case
ASUS Turbo GTX 1060 6GB GDDR5
1TB Western Digital Blue, SATA III, 7200RPM, 64MB, Hard Drive
Corsair Vengeance 16GB DDR4 2400MHz Black
MSI H110M PRO VH Motherboard
Microsoft Windows 10 Home 64 Bit Operating System
Corsair RM550X 80+Gold Power Supply
Intel i5 6600K Skylake Processor
The PC is already built the only thing I changed was the processor and the psu the processor was originally an i5 6500 but I changed it to i5 6600k and the psu was a corsair VS550 80+ bronze.
If you think there is anything that needs changing to further improve this please let me know :) my budget is 800-900 :)

Looks great! I assume they'll load the OS on your SSD, but you may want to specify in any notes that they have for your order.

Oh boy, the upgrades that can be performed for 800-900 on this.. *drools*

No, but seriously, here's my two cents on what you can do with this.

1. SSD. Either a boot drive, or a bit larger boot drive that can hold some games. This will blow your startup speeds out of the water!

2. Motherboard. The motherboard you have doesn't support overclocking of a skylake processor. I suggest a Z170 chipset motherboard to really step up the performance. I left the search parameters below to allow you a personal choice. Any of these will work just fine.

Happy building!

Okay I'll definitely be sure to make these changes, and do you think everything else is fine? As you can tell I'm really not great with this sort of stuff haha
Thank you so much for the suggestions! :)

Honestly, for a gaming rig, this will run all kinds of games that you want with beautiful graphics. You can always improve, but it's not all that necessary here. I suggest putting the rest of your budget into peripherals. Keyboard, mouse, monitor, headset, etc etc.

The Motherboard will not be able to overclock your i5 6600K. you would need a z170 mobo for that. If I had your build I would have not upgraded the processor but maybe would have gone for GTX 1070 instead.

With an unlocked processor, as the one you have, I highly suggest looking into overclocking. Maybe even an aftermarket cooler?

The power supply you chose is great for what it is. Don't worry about that.

Also, you don't need a GTX 1070 UNLESS you have a 1440 display. The GTX 1060 will do all you could ever want at 1080, and is pretty comparable to the 1070 in this aspect.

I private messaged you earlier with a link to the PC, as I kind of said in my first post the PC is being customised from an already built PC so the website doesn't have all the parts. This is why I'm kind of stuck what to do. :/ this PC looked pretty good for the price but there is so much that can be added to improve it

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. Ok. Let me give you a suggestion.

Build it yourself. I'll drop a parts list on here in a bit and there's a million and a half videos online of how to build them yourself.

I'll keep within your 800-900 price range as well.

I would, but I just don't want to it's great expirience and all that but when you buy it prebuilt you get a warranty and plus I won't be messing anything up is there a website that will build it then send it to me?

It's really hard to mess it up, but if you'd rather go prebuilt, use the website you already are. Now that I fully understand, it's going to be hard to suggest very many upgrades. I wouldn't upgrade to a 6600k if you aren't going to overclock. I WOULD still suggest the solid state drive upgrade though, preferrably the 128gb Samsung 850 PRO.
