Hello everyone,
Thanks for reading first off. Here's the background; I did a build back in 2013 and I have reached the end of the road with my current rig. Like to play PUBG and the simple fact is I am missing a lot of enjoyment running on lowest possible settings with still low frame rates and performance.
Current rig:
MSI 2A9C, Intel core i5 650 3.2 ghz, 8gb ram, gtx 650 ti boost 2gb
Prospective rig:
Pic not working
Direct link HERE
i7 7700k 4.2 ghz quad core $326
cryorig h5 universal cooler $47
asrock fatal1ty z270 gaming k6 atx $140
g.skill ripjaw V series 16gb (2x8gb) ddr4 3000 memory $200
evga gtx 1060 6gb sc video card $270
fatal1ty 550W power sup $0.00
Not really experienced in this field. Did some research getting this combo. I already have the power supply and drives from a previous build and the power consumption estimate gives me a lot of buffer (pc part picker estimated 335W).
The price is really on the high end of my budget and more than I would like to spend, but I want this to last me a long time. Possible changes I see in this are the ram cards. I want 8gb sticks for 16gb. so I can expand to 32 if I ever see the point. But the ram I picked is pretty pricey.
Can I do this or better for less? Do not want to sacrifice any on performance.
Also, given that I am relatively inexperienced in this area as mentioned I probably wont overclock but I want the option later on and also the 7700 (notthe 7700k) operates in the mid 3ghz range which I think is way too low for a build for the future. Want to keep it 4+. No liquid cooling, dont want the risk, even if minimal. Thanks for the inputs.
