A buddy of mine told me I should post my build here and get some advice on it before I start buying the parts so here's my build.
Approximate Purchase Date: I plan on starting to buy parts this month
Budget Range: Before rebates and after shipping I'll go up to 1900
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming with dual monitors
Are you buying a monitor: Yes
Do you need to buy OS: Yes
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: I'm using pcpartpicker, so whichever has the best deal
Location: City, State/Region, Country - we need to know where these parts are being assembled and whether there are good store-only deals available
Parts Preferences: Intel CPUs, NVIDIA GPUs, otherwise no preference
Overclocking: Maybe
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: I want a nice case with a window; thinking about getting LED's. Also, can someone recommend an awesome set of speakers with a wall-shaking bass the ones I have currently picked have good reviews, but I have no experience with them. I'd mostly be using that for blasting music, but also gaming. Additionally, my old monitor is an acer with 60 Hz refresh rate and 1920x1080 res, would it be fine to use the monitor in my part list for a dual set up?
And Most Importantly, Why Are You Upgrading: I just want to build a really nice gaming pc for running games like Battlefield 1 and The Witcher 3 at max graphics and still have atleast 60 fps
Current Part List:
Intel - Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
Cooler Master - Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler
MSI - Z170A GAMING M5 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

Thanks for any help!
