Hi, I'm about to start buying the components for my PC and just want to make sure that all the components will be compatible etc.

The build: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/282dGf

I also have one more question, does the variations of the 960 matter? Should I specifically go for a 2g or 4g version? I wanted to try to get a MSI edition (not oc), does that matter? (I am buying the CPU + GPU second hand).

Thanks :).

Everything looks good to me. However, couple of things. I would spend the extra 30 to get the GTX 1060 3GB as should be able to play many new games on high settings. If not, you can try the RX 470 for around the same price. For the motherboard, if you are not overclocking, I would invest in an H81 or B85 to save a few bucks.

In the UK, not about USA, a second hand 960 is around £120 whereas the 1060 is kind of just out of my range (for now). Is this the mobo you mean? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Asrock-Generation-Motherboard-Pentium-Celeron/dp/B00MI8D2D4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1482525835&sr=8-1&keywords=b85 :)

Ok thank you, I may go with the original mobo as I do want to upgrade in the future. But I'll keep the others in mind :).

Thank you for the help.
