Thoughts on my new build.

[Segwaythis]

So, my current computer wont do much more than play Youtube. And I desperately need to upgrade.

Current PC: 

• Intel i7 2600
• Geforce GTX 960 4Gb
• Asus P8P67 PRO B3
• Corsair Vengeance DDr3 1600Mhz 16GB (4x4Gb)
• Coolermaster Cosmos V1 fulltower
• Coolermaster 850w PSU modular (It came with the case) 
• 2x Kingston SSD 240Gb
• 2x Seagate 1TB HDD

Im thinking around $1000-$1200.

Im located in Sweden but can see that prices and availability are practically identical.

I would like to able to play games with decent image quality @ ~60 FPS 

Examples of games I would like to play; Red Dead Redemtion 2, Battlefield V, CyberPunk 2077, Tombraider.

I'm not going to Overclock anything. (Because i dont know how )

The PSU & storage i'm looking to keep for my new build.

 

After some fast research i landed on this build:

The only thing I dont want to change is the case. I would fit perfectly in my tv desk. 

Yes, im gaming on my tv  (no room for a seperate desktopstation at this point)

 

Any thoughts?

You should consider changing it as it's probably 7 years old.

yeah the X-version is too expensive for the slight performance gaing. MORTAR probably the best decent M-ATx mobo tho.

Thanks @Plouffe & @Wolfycapt  for your input. I will definitely change the CPU to the non X and i will consider upgarding the PSU aswell.

 

Hoping for som good deals to be made on BlackFriday next week.
