Hey guys, so I'm getting a new computer intended for playing AAA games at 60fps on high or ultra settings. Can you to tell me whether everything will fit properly, as well as if you have any suggestions.

For your suggestions, I can add about £100~150 to the price shown.

I haven't decided whether I'm going to buy a GTX 1060 6gb or a 1070 yet.

Yeah that would be fine, the Intel CPUs can fluctuate on RAM speed. I'd personally go for the RGB modules but you don't always have to get those.

Thanks. Would the same ram speed on the Trident Z be good enough?

Thank you. I'll probably upgrade the peripherals in the future so the 1070 is probably going to be the better option.

the only 2c i add. is on the ssd. use a m2 or newer mve drive for the os and main programs as there faster and only a little more money now. i hold off on the gpu right now. i wait a few weeks for the gpu. i would use the onboard ipgpu for now. with nvidia dropping new gpu in the next few weeks.

Thanks for the response. I was planning on waiting till July for the 1070 since the 1180 is coming out then. How much would that affect the price.

Also, this is my first pc that I'm building and so far all my research has been in components and what goes together best. Could you explain what you mean by use an m2 or mve in almost step by step terms.

Is it the different style of ssd that I've seen, which is just a stick?

ssd have set number of writes...there good for os and programs your not going to be removing or adding on daily. also do to how an ssd drive works you cant fill them as full as a hard drive. so you want your stream folder on the hard drive. with games and a ssd it helps a bit on game loading times but that it.

I'd get one for the operating system and then get a larger mechanical or SSD for storage. I generally keep the OS separate from my data.
