New Build; i5-8400 + GTX 1060 6GB

libels00

Hey there everyone, allow me to ask recommendations for my build.

I live in Indonesia, I want to buy a whole new PC because my current one runs in i3-2100 and GTS 450 - a really old one compared to current tech. Reason for upgrade is for playing a ton of new games and, well, I do think i3-2100 and GTS 450 are very old.

 

So I've bought i5-8400 and MSI GTX 1060 Gaming X, so I just need to complete all other parts. From what I've ask and observe, the current target build I aim is as displayed :

Under the said price (maybe I can go to US $450), is the build good enough? The thing is that my space to put the desktop is pretty limited (mainly due to the case height limit of only about 48 cm) and I do need to put optical drive in my PC. Can you guys help me to rate my build and give some advice?

 

Thanks a lot!

Yep, kinda sad that RTX 2060 and GTX 1660 has been launched plus GTX 1070cs price started to go down, so I had no choice other than enjoying what I've bought lol
