Is this good for gaming?

Cavamiva · Mar 28, 2017

So Ina couple of months I'm going to be getting my very own
PC and I was just wondering if this is a good build for gaming specifically and if the CPU and GPU is a good price or if I should change it. And if you can make any suggestions to possibly make it cheaper? Thanks in advance. I would like to be playing games from CS:GO all the way up to GTA 5 and all the new games at around about 60 fps maybe a bit more. And maybe even Arma 3.

Board won't run 2666 modules , you need a good Z270 board , power supply and cooler aren't very good.

What would you recommend for my cooler and power supply. And will a MSI Z270-A PRO ATX work?
Thanks for your feedback

Not much point in planning parts right now if you won't be buying for a few months. Just set a target budget of $1,100 or $1,200. Since that seems to be about where you are at. Then ask for advise on a build at the time you are ready to buy. As the prices of parts now and a few months from now can vary quite a bit.
