HELP! I am a noob at building my own PC and I need to know if these pieces are compatible with each other!

[ozguroyun1]

This is all of the PC parts that I am planning to buy. Since I am a noob, I really don't want to screw up with the pieces. Whether its the motherboard not fitting in the case etc.

Thanks

Yes they are, but may i suggest you spend $20-30 more and get the I7-7700K (with the K) instead as it is faster and can overclock. If not there is no reason for a Z270 Motherboard.

use pcpartpicker. It will keep you from buying most things that are incompatible with each other.

Please change that PSU to a proper quality one.

Are you buying it now or like in the month? Cuz you will have the 8700k/z370 by then and it will be the best for gaming.
Are you sure u need 32gb of ram? 2x8gb is enough for gaming imo. Get a trident z rgb 3000/3200 sticks.
For z370, go for aorus gaming 5 maybe? Or look at the asrock fatalit1y or killer sli
Try for the NZXT kraken x62 version 2 cooler.
The psu is the good choice. Stick with the gq.
Go for a Samsung 960/951/961 ssd instead of that SanDisk.
This might be the added extra, but since you are going with the 460x case, try a nzxt hue+ with aer 140 3 pack and get the extension kit for those 2 led strips. The hue+ would allow you to monitor fan speed and color via cam software.
BTW, does the 460x has a psu shroud? If not, u can try the thermaltake [strike]smart pro[/strike] toughpower grand rgb or toughpower grand dps rgb 650w which is a decent psu.

 

[Kasper Jorgensen]

PSU - get the EVGA G2 550w instead

Get the 7700k get a z270E asus motherboard. Get 16gb of ram and with the money saved get a 1TB samsung SSD.

 

[Lucky_SLS]

The ssd won't give any performance gains, I don't really see the point of getting a 1tb ssd. For what? If you would have said a 128gb nvme for os and 500gb sata ssd for games or simply a 500gb nvme for os and games, that would make sense. Even then, the op should be having a lot of games to fill up a 500gb ssd.

 

[IHateSmurfs]

@musab, i prefer to kill myself instead of using a weak 500-550W PSU that won't support the PC he the OP plans to OC.
@OP: Grab a SeaSonic S12II 620W. It's good and allows you to OC or keep the current PSU in your parts list. Also, a Z270 with a non-OC CPU? Only if you flash a custom BIOS but there's the issue that you might just brick your MoBo. Z270+7700K is a better choice overall. Hope I helped!

If you want to check compatibility of these parts, then i recommend you to go to pcpartpicker.com
it's an awesome site which allows you to choose parts for your pc, provides a wide range of PC builds and it has tutorials for newbie's in pc gaming. I hope it's helpful

 

[ozguroyun1]

Guys thx so much. I will go for the 16 gb ram and the 7700k instead. u guys are awesome. Anything that I am missing?

 

[IHateSmurfs]

Yep! To choose a answer as the Best one so no one replies to your thread since you already asked what you wanted and got your answers.

 

[ozguroyun1]

One last thing, is the nzxt hue compatible with any of the things that I am planning on getting. Cuz i don't want to buy 3 extra rgb fans just to make use of the hue. And what is the best combo for nvme and normal ssd. Do I even need another ssd, cuz dam the nvme is expensive.

If you want to get case lighting just get the corsair HD120 fan kit. Its expensive but in the end its worth it.

if you want maximum performance out of your PC then i recommend you to go for a 1080 or 1080ti instead, because your rig is 4k 60+ capable and it will give your best performance if it's paired with a high-end card, the 1080 is only a few bucks more expensive but it's ideal for your rig.
