pc build Need to help to choose between 2 builds...

[Walt]

Hi everyone,

First I want to thank you all for helping me with advise on my builds. I changed some parts and have 3 builds now. I have 1100 euro to spend but I don't need to buy the RAM, SSD, Case, HDD.

Which build do you guys think is the best? Not only the most FPS but also durability  

 

And will my CPU bottleneck my GPU in build 2?

 

My RAM, SSD, Case and HDD are: 

RAM: Corsair vengeance lpx 8GB 3200MHz (2 times so 16Gb in total)
SSD: samsung 960 EVO (pce m.2)
HDD: WD 2TB 7200RPM
Case: NZXT h440 razer edition

 

Build 1:
CPU: intel core i5 7600K
CPU cooler: NZXT kraken 41x
Motherboard: asus rog strix Z270F
GPU: asus rog strix 1060 OC 6GB
PSU: corsair RM650x

 

Build 2:
CPU: intel core i5 6600K
CPU cooler: NZXT kraken 41x
Motherboard: asus Z170-a
GPU: asus rog strix 1070 8GB
PSU: corsair RM550x

 

Thanks!

build 2 is quicker and the psu is enough for now and for the future, go with that

im not even sure how this is even a discussion. i cant see why you want the first build over the second build.

Because I thought the i5 will bottleneck a gtx 1070 super hard but I think I've learned it doesn't

yeah you will be fine with an overclock-able i5

Considering the i5 6600k at 4.5GHz can handle a 1080, I think you'll be fine...

Is the Asus z170-a a Good overclock motherboard? Or are there for the price better ones?

I personally love ASUS customer service and build quality, so that's usually my first choice. As long as you aren't going for the insane like 3 way sli/cf and don't need 10 USB Ports (pretty soon that would get to the point where you would plug your cat into a USB port before you could find something else), than there is no need for an X99. A Z170 will do you just fine, preferably from ASUS
