Hello, I'm about to buy my parts next week and need your opinion on my PC. My budget for everything is no more than $1450. I will be using this PC for gaming at 1080p 60fps on most games at high settings. I also want to play eSports games like CS:GO and Overwatch at 100+ fps.
Buying from the U.S.

Thank you. :)

The anti-static mat is totally unnecessary. Just touch a large metal object occasionally while building, and don't build it while wearing shoes on carpet.

The parts should work together well.

I don't know if you need one, but there's no mouse.

For eSports and CS:GO, this build is total overkill. You can run those on the 1050 Ti with a Pentium G4560. If you want to play more demanding games later, though, it's quite solid.

I will be playing demanding games on my computer as well as well. I already have a mouse. For the mat, I know you don't need it, but I'm really paranoid that I will forget to to ground myself and I will zap a part.

Thanks for the response :).

Why should I get the 1600 vs. the 1600x? Thanks for recommending the power supply, now realize I don't need 650w.

the 1600 and 1600X overclocks abt the same. if u plan to do some crazy overclocking with a beefy cooler like cryorig r1, noctua nh d15 or kraken x62 to hit 4.2 ghz, then 1600X is what u need. for normal tasks and gaming, a 1600 oc'ed to 4.0 is enough.

What do you think of this ram instead of the one you chose https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Cf98TW/gskill-memory-f43200c16d16gvkb. Also, is the included cpu cooler good for my needs.
