Do you want a case with window? Or not?

I'd go for the NZXT h500 for a great look and great cable management. But there are many, many cases that you can buy, so what do you want from a case?

Also, are you planning to overclock your cpu? If not, you can save some money by buying the Intel Core i5-8400 (non k!) or the i5-8600. The non k cpu's are unable to overclock, but cheaper.

And buy a motherboard with a b360 chipset. Those mobo's are most of the time cheaper.

get an 256 SSD instead 120 ... 120 is too small for gamers rig , as for case ,, what kind you have in mind .. you need to consider the space you have in your room or gaming desk ..and your budget too ,,

dont know where you get that info, but its not true, all 8th gen i5's are 6 core, especialy the one with a K.
other than that, i would agree, if you dont plan to oc than you dont need a K procesor.

You're right, I read the info wrongly. I thought he was talking about the i5 7600k instead of the 8600k. I'll edit my post. Thanks.
