£700 Second Hand/New PC Build

[Simeon_]

Hey guise its me,

I'm looking for a pc build where I get the most performance for my money and CeX seems to have some pretty good prices, but I'll still get some parts new.

Build rn - https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/YVKWzM

i7 6700 - £210 (CeX) - https://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SCPUINTI76700#.WEnUA5KkG1k

2x 8gb DDR4 2133ghz RAM (CeX) - Just raised in price to £50 grr (£25 each) - https://uk.webuy.com/product.php?sku=SMEM8G2133#.WEnVRZKkG1k

CiT Barricade - £18.49 (Amazon) - https://www.amazon.co.uk/CiT-Barricade-Gaming-Interior-Front/dp/B00JKW3GDM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

Mouse - £15 @ Amazon/CeX

Also wondering if I should use a Sandisk Ultra II 480gb (£85 @ CeX) or Sandisk Extreme Pro 480gb (£90 @ CeX) as main storage instead of the tacky blacky and the ssd thang?

Oh and tell me if there's anything else i'd need to get this pc running.

 

Leave your suggestions or improvements below

Thanks in advance

Get 2x8 ram instead of buying 2 different one seperately

That PSU is not good at all

I have an Ultra II 240gb and works really nice

Also get WD blue 1TB. What would be black for?

looks solid

 

if i were you i would switch out the rx 480 for a 1060 if you can get your hands on one since it gives a bit more preformance

Any good 2.5" hdd's since the case doesn't support other sizes and why is it a bad psu?

I'd say it looks fine. You could go with a 1070 and a i5, but the i7 will be handy for minimums and future upgrades.

The 480 is good enough for atleast a few years anyway, and I don't need to be doing anything too intense.

I'm pretty sure i'll sacrifice a few fps for a better performance cpu and a system which is potentially more future proof.

Well it's up to you. You could get the 1070 for better frame rates now, but the i7 can come in handy in few tasks and who knows, maybe they will make better use of its extra threads in the futures.
