Hello guys!
Recently I've been trying to put together a gaming PC configuration that I plan to purchase soon, but it was done mostly by surfing the web and reading various reviews and comparissons.
Since I'm not a techie and have limited knowledge about which piece of hardware is best, I came here in hopes to have a more clearer view.
Consider that I don't plan to overclock.

Please answer me to the following questions:
- is this build OK as it is?
- can I do better for the money I plan to spend? (the build is currently at 1300.42€)
- please suggest if I could switch pieces for better efficiency

CPU: i5 6600 (216,42€ amazon.it)
Video card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 (287,22€ amazon.it)
PSU: EVGA supernova 550W (99.58€ amazon.it)
Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (34.99€ amazon.it)
Case: Fractal Design Define R5 (104,31€ amazon.it)
RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2133 MHz CL13 (123.12€ amazon.it)
Monitor Asus VX238H 23" (144.54€ amazon.it)
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB (101.99€ amazon.it)
Motherboard: Asus H170 Pro Gaming (135.99€ amazon.it)
HHD: Western Digital blue 1TB 7200rpm (52.26€ amazon.it)

Well, atm I am busy with work and don't play nothing at all.
But since I'm undecided about what to play next, I want a build that allows me to be able to play anything at max graphics, with 60fps and all that.
Hopefully this build will allow me to do that for the next 4-5 years, until I'll probably buy a new PC :))

Well, my budget is 1300€ (nevermind peripherals, I will get those separately, it's all good).
What I'm trying to accomplish is to make the best configuration possible, staying within the 1300€ range.
Ryzen chips might be coming out soon but I doubt they'll be cheap... at least not for a while.

You should probably wait for Ryzen

VERY good advice.
I will put it into practice as soon as I finish writing this reply.
...whatever necessary to accomplish my goal :)
 

Yeah also state you want 16gb of system memory and let them know if you plan to overclock or not.
