Hi, this is my first time building a gaming PC so I would be glad if anybody can give me some suggestions, comments or even recommendations.

Also, keeping in mind that I'm on a Budget, not going to overclock too much and I've chosen the list of items below so that I can have an easier upgrade in the near future.

I'm from Singapore and my budget would be around SGD1500 - 1800 (USD1000 - 1300/EURO1000 - 1200)


CPU: i5-6600K
Motherboard: MSI Z170A Sli
(Othe choices: GA Z170 D3H)
Memory: Corsair LPX 8GB
Graphic: Palit GTX 1070 Super JetStream
(Other choices: GA GTX 1070 WindForce/ ASUS GTX 1070 Turbo/ GA GTX 1070 G1 Gaming)
PSU: Corsair RM650X Gold
Cooler: Cryorig H7

The parts are good. I can't comment on the value of the parts since I don't know the prices or your country. It is possible that you could do better for your money, but maybe not.

You're probably going to have an awesome time with that rig, but if i was the one in your position i'd probably switch one or two things in your build to get another 8GB stick of RAM. Don't know about the prices, but i'd probably dial down on the PSU and look for a cheaper variant, while of course staying in the same tier.

Once saw a 2 x 8GB of DDR4 2166 Corsair.Vengeance RAM for a £43 deal(was on sale)
