  1. Thanks for those suggestions. At the end I managed to install everything in a NOX Coolbay RX, a 175mm (6.88") width case. It barely fits, definetly not recommended.
  2. Thanks, those cases looks slim for the GPU, which is about 140mm (5.5"). Would you recommend a 100mm (4") width case and use a riser card?
  3. I choose 2 x 4GB to take advantage of double channel that the mobo offers. And as I said before, 6500 is not possible. Sounds really good! Any suggestion for a compact case?
  4. Thanks for the reply. i5 6500 is €30 more expensive than i5 6400 here, which surpasses my budget.
  5. TL;DR: I need a small case (detaills at point 7). 1. Budget & Location Strictly less or equal than €800. €650 ($US 688.54, $CAD 931.55, $AUD 925) for the PC. Spain. 2. Aim Gaming, light software development and general tasks. I primarily aimed towards gaming on 1080p 60FPS at least at medium settings. Games that I'm interested in are Battlefield 1, Titan Fall 2, The Division, (I think this is enough to understand what types of games I want to run on this build), and some other games which are less demanding, I think (Overwatch, CS:GO, WoT, WoWs...). I researched different types of mid-range GPUs, and RX470 looks promising (high setting 1080p 80FPS on BF1). 3. Monitors 1 monitor. No plan to add more. 1920 x 1080. 4. Peripherals The remaining €150 will be for keyboard, monitor and some other stuff that I don't know right now, like cables, cooling stuff, thermal paste... I don't need OS. 5. Why are you upgrading? The main purpose of this build is to upgrade from my 4 years old MSI GE60 laptop to a nice small desktop with a lifespan of 5 to 6 years. 6. Planned parts PCPartPicker part list: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RxkFKZ Price breakdown by merchant: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RxkFKZ/by_merchant/ CPU: Intel Core i5-6400 2.7GHz Quad-Core Processor ($174.99 @ SuperBiiz) Motherboard: Asus H110M-D Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR4-2133 Memory ($57.45 @ Jet) Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($48.89 @ OutletPC) Video Card: Asus Radeon RX 470 4GB STRIX Video Card ($191.99 @ SuperBiiz) Power Supply: Corsair Builder 430W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($46.99 @ OutletPC) Total: $520.31 7. Stuff that I need help First, a easy one, is this build optimal for the budget? Now my real question: I don't have much room for a desktop, so I'm looking for a compact case, mATX one. I've 2 candidates: HIDITEC SLM20 (330 x 430 x 100mm) and TACENS ORUM III (427 x 300 x 100 mm). I think it might fit, but I'm not sure. I would like to know if my build fits in these cases. Any other suggestion is nice. May use PCI riser for GPU. If it's too complicated, I might switch to a relatively small ATX size. Any suggestion is also nice. Should I add a CPU cooler or the stock one is enough? About monitor: BENQ GL2250 looks nice, opinion? 8. Additional stuff Here there are a couple of deals, Gigabyte H110M-Gaming 3 and MSI RX470 8GB, at almost same price as above. Recommended do get them? Thanks
