Cpu combination with gpu

No, that monitor does not have gsync, but it is a good monitor and wont bottleneck a 1080. I would keep it for now.

When you play at 1080p the bottleneck moves to the CPU, even more so with a 1080. But you would still have good performance, you would just not be using the 1080 its fullest potential. You might only be taking advantage of 50-75% of the 1080's ability with a 6300. I have no idea what GPU you are using now, but you would definitely see a performance boost over whatever GPU you currently use.

As for the processor it really depends on how much money you want to spend. You dont need a $1k processor to feed the gpu. I would not spend more than $350 (us dollars) on a processor. The GPU is much more important for gaming. If you want an AMD processor, the AMD 1600 is a really good value and is a 6 core 12 thread chip. The 1700x has 8 cores and 16 threads for only $80 more, so it would be more future proof. Here are some links:

If you want Intel then I would go with a i5 7600k or and i7 7700k, pending your budget. The i7 7700k is the best processor in the world for gaming. Here are some links to the intel processors

Over the past 10 years, if you wanted to get the best processor, you would go with Intel as AMD has lagged behind. However the new AMD Ryzen chips are very good. They are not quite as fast as Intel for gaming (but they are still very good), and they offer more cores for a better price point than Intel. If I were building a new system today I would get a Ryzen 1700x.

However, if you decide to get a new CPU, you will have to get a new motherboard and Ram. Essentially, you will be buying a whole new system, which gets expensive. If you have the money for the 1080 and the CPU/RAM/Motherboard, then go get it. However, if you dont have enough for all of it, then I would go get the 1080 and see how it plays. As I said, it will be an improvement over whatever you have now despite what processor you are using. Then you can upgrade the rest of the PC when you have the cash.

You will need a new PSU to run a overclocked 6300 and a 1080. I would recommend a 650 watt PSU from a quality vendor. You really dont want to go cheap on the PSU cause a bad PSU will fry your system.

There is an issue with your mother board. It's PCIe lanes are 2.0. The 1080 runs on PCIe 3.0. The difference is twice the amount of bandwidth for information. So the PCIe 3.0 will move twice as much bandwidth as PCIe 2.0. However, video cards really dont need all of that bandwidth. In some situations they do, but not many. So if you used the 1080 on that board, it would use PCIe 2.0 x16 lanes so it would acutally be running PCIe 3.0 x8 lanes. The truth is, PCIe 3.0 x 8 is enough to run that card. I run twind 1080ti's in sli and they both run at 8 lanes each and there is very little, if any at all, performance loss.

So I would not say that you have to build a whole new system if you get a 1080 unless you just want to. If you dont have the cash to throw down for a new system, then I would get the 1080 and a quality PSU and you will see significant improvement over your 750ti.

The problem you have is with the new processors, you will have to upgrade everything. If you get a new processor, you need a new motherboard and DDR4 RAM, so essentially, it would be a new system. So if money is tight, then you can stretch your system out for a little while longer and have excellent performance

But if you have the cash and want an upgrade, then this would be an excellent system that would last you for years:

Corsair makes good PSU and I really only recommend Seasonic, EVGA, and Corsair, mainly just because I have had good experience with their products. The VS is at the bottom of the Corsair lineup and is made with cheaper components. With that being said, I would go with that one before I went with a more expensive model from a brand I have never heard of.

Your CPU is not too bad to combine with a 1080, but it will cause a bottleneck. If you want to get the most out of your system, you will need to upgrade the CPU at some point.

You cant look at clockspeeds to determine a chips performance. Clockspeeds are important, but there are many other factors that determine single core and multi core performance. Think of it like this, if you are driving in a bunch of mud, the wheels maybe spinning 40 miles per hour , but your car is not moving 40 miles per hour. The wheels are just spinning in the mud and the car is barely moving. You don't just judge a processor by how fast it's "wheels can spin", rather you have to consider the quality of the architecture, or "cores" it is moving in.

The Ryzen 1600 that I suggested has a base clock of 3.2ghz, but it can be overclocked to somewhere between 3.8-4.1 Depends on silicon lottery. Some chips perform better than others from the same lineup. So if you measuring clock for clock, the 1600 will have clock speeds comparable to the fx 6300. But the 1600 is a much better processor in every measurable category.

If your on a budget, then I would recommend the 1600 over the 1600x, because they are essentially the same chip except the 1600x is clocked a little higher and has xfr which essentially adds a little more to the boost, sometimes. Since both chips have unlocked multipliers and can be overclocked, a 1600 can be overclocked to match the clock speed of a 1600x. The bigger difference is the 1600 comes with a wraith cooler where the 1600x does not come with a cooler. So if you buy the 1600x, then you would also need to factor in the cost of an aftermarket CPU cooler.

As for an Intel build, see below. But if you are wanting value over performance, the AMD is a better way to go right now. The same intel build cost a little more than the AMD build, but the intel processor is a 4 core/4 thread chip, where the AMD chip is a 6 core/12 thread chip. This does not mean much for games, but if you want to use your PC for anything other than gaming, such as video editing or streaming, then the AMD chip will perform better while the Intel chip has a little bit better performance in games.

The EVGA 650 watt G2 is a very good PSU. The EVGA G2 and G3 models are both very good. The G3 is the new design, but I would go with whatever is cheaper. If you are thinking about getting a 1080ti and you plan on overclocking the CPU/GPU (which I recommend), then you should get a 750 watt PSU.

As far as RBG, you would just have to get components that have RBG lighting. My motherboard has RBG and you cant really see it because I have GPUs and CPU cooler that restricts vision. I have some blue LED fans that I use and my case has a lighting included. RBG can get expensive and it does not add to performance. For me, I focus on performance first. But if you going to have the system for while, an extra 50 here or there is not much over several years.

In my opinion, an SSD is the single most important upgrade anyone should make in their system. SSDs are much faster than HDD, but they are also more expensive. What an SSD does is drastically reduce load times and boot times. It will also make you whole PC seem to respond much quicker. I recommend getting an SSD to install your Operating System and frequently used programs. Then you can use your HDD to install your games. If you install Windows on the SSD it will boot in 10-20 seconds. If you install Windows on a HDD it will boot in over a minute.

I like you build. It will be a really nice PC. I added an SSD to it and a PSU that I would go with if you are thinking about getting the 1080ti. Good luck!

Yes, when you install windows it will ask you where you want put the installation. It will show all of your drives on the PC. You would want to select the SSD. So if you have a 250gb SSD and a 1tb HDD, then it would show 2 drives, one of them would have around 230gb, the other would have around 900gb, you would select the 230gb for the install.

It gets a little confusing if you have a SSD and a HDD that are exactly the same size. But for your PC, I would not recommend spending the money for a 1tb SSD. So it should not be a problem.

The 1600 on the parts list comes with a stock wraith cooler. It is good for a stock cooler. I don't think you need a AIO water cooler. AIO stand for "All In One". Which means it is a water cooler that already has the liquid, pump, and radiator in a closed loop system. Anything else would be custom water cooling and you are not ready for that. It gets really expensive.

The HDD is compatible. Any desktop HDD will be compatible.

The difference in fans comes down to noise. Quite fans cost more than louder fans. I am not familiar with the fans you selected, but that does not mean they are bad. RBG will cost more, but you will have the ability to customize your system.

If I were you I would start with 2 fans for intake (front of case) and 2 fans for exhaust (rear of case) and you will be good to go.
