New Computer Build $1200

Zoomie1615 · Dec 28, 2016

I will mainly use this pc for multimedia and coding purposes.I'm only a casual gamer which is why i don't need a high end video card. i have 2 dell S2415H monitors that i will connect to this pc to use as dual monitors.

M.Board : ASUS Z170-A LGA 1151 Intel Z170
CPU: Intel i7 6700K
RAM : G.SKILL TridentZ Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) ddr4 3000
SSD: Samsung 850 Pro 256GB
HDD: WD Blue 1TB 7200RPM
Graphic Card: MSI Radeon RX 470 DirectX 12 Radeon RX 470 ARMOR 4G
OC
Case: Rosewill Computer Case - CHALLENGER - ATX Mid Tower - Black
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA 750 B1 110-B1-0750-VR 80+ BRONZE
Mouse+ Keyboard: Logitech Wireless Combo MK270 USB 2.0 RF Wireless
DVD-R: ASUS DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS Black SATA 24X DVD Burner
OS: Win 10 Home
Cooler: Hyper 12 Evo

The total little more than 1200 dollars, with rebates it should be just under that that.

Will all of these components work together, will everything will fit inside the case. Do i need any extra cables to run the dual monitors. Which components would you replace.I can spend $100 more if it is worth it.

Thank you!!

Yes, everything seems compatible. The Hyper 212 Evo is going to be a very tight fit, but from accounts of other builders it should fit.
You will not need a 750w PSU. Something around 550w is more than enough, like the CXM 550.
You may also want to consider getting a case with USB 3.0 front panel ports, so you don't have to access the 3.0 ports via the I/O panel. But if that isn't a big deal to you then don't worry about it.
For your displays that GPU has 5 outputs to work with, 3x DP, 1x HDMI, and 1x DVI. So any combination of those choices will work fine.

a 1070 is a more powerful card

The case has 2 x USB 2.0, 1 x USB 3.0, Front Audio In / Out Ports or am i wrong ?? Which case would you suggest that should be an easier fit with the cooler or maybe a different cooler ???

timeconsumer · Dec 28, 2016

I believe that is the Challenger S, but they may have updated the Challenger.

Zoomie1615 · Dec 28, 2016

Do you have a different cooler that you would recommend that should fit easier in the case??

Wait for Zen. Since it's so close, lets see how it stacks up against Intel in regards to coding and multimedia applications.
