So Ive been compiling a list of parts to build a new PC. I would like to run Battlefield 1 on ultra settings (Ill probably leave DX12 off since its evidently an FPS hog) without dropping below 60 frames ever. This will be 1080p until I get a 4k capable monitor. Im not worried about any other games really since BF1 is the game I cant run smoothly at all really. Heres my part list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/zPcVm8
Im pretty dead set on having a 1060 6GB of some kind as it seems to be the best bang for buck card (I do in fact do research) but if you see anything that needs tweaking, let me know. I would like this to be a rig that will be solid for at least a year or two. RAM is a little low at 8GB but at 1080p, I dont think Ill need any more than that. Thanks ahead of time, guys!
Edit: swapped the card out, I liked the reviews on the MSI 1060. As you can see, Im very bipolar, constantly changing everything
 
Here's a much better build, at this price point a 6500 and better gpu will net you better performance.

Hmmm, I do like that build except for the MicroATX form. Not sure why, Ive just always been deterred from MicroATX, I dont have a reason for it. Its going to be a while before I am able to start buying the parts so I still have time to change my mind and switch things around
 
You're going to have a smaller mobo because of your price range, why not have a smaller case to suit?
This won't detract from performance in any way.
Look at me, I have a high end setup yet for the past 6 months i've been using an mATX board as an experiment testing whether there would be any differences vs ATX, coming from the Z170X Gaming 5, know how many issues i've had?
0. :)
if you want to make any changes or have criteria, feel free to run it past me first and i'll give you some feedback.
