Hi everyone,

I'm going to build a new PC from scratch and really need help for some of the components i should put in.
Disclaimer : i'm from EU ( belgium ) and don't have acces to all the parts i see in most build review and prices are most of the time higher ( due to tax and shipping differences )

i already have some parts i decided but any tips are welcome
Mainly going to game and maybe broadcast sometimes but no needs for editing/processing use.
I have a 144Hz monitor.

CPU: I7-7700k ( don't really need ryzen for my usage )

Motherboard : was looking between "Asus STRIX Z270G GAMING" or "MSI Z270 GAMING M5" not really in needs for a "flashy" MB but want one i'm sure will make the difference and old good in the long term

RAM : "DDR4 HyperX Fury, Noir, 2 x 8 Go, 2133 MHz, CAS 14" pretty sure i'm good with that

Cooling : BeQuiet pure rock or cooler master hyper 212x ( not a fan of watercooling )

GPU : KFA2 GeForce GTX 1080 EXOC SNIPER, 8GO , good GPU Price/performance even if he as coil whine at heavy loads

Memory : a 120 SSD + 2TO Hdd ( not really in need for help but you can throw proposition if you have some preference in brands )

PSU : pretty sure any PSU 750W would be fine in this setup

Case : i can't decide between Corsair 400c and NZXT S340 elite ( throw me some suggestion if you have other good case with good airflow/noise cancelation )

If i missed any information be sure to tell me and thanks in advance to any of you who reply.

The Asus board would be something I'd pick myself. You should look at DDR4-3200Mhz ram kits as the bare minimum on your system since your platform can take the ram to those speeds. If you can pick up the Cryorig H7 for the same price as the Be Quiet! cooler then go for it. As for PSU, you should compare your purchase with this tier list to make sure you've got a reliable unit in your hands. I would go for the Fractal Define Min C TG edition since your board is matx and the build could benefit from some smaller volume.

SSD/HDD?
