Go to solution Solved by Yoinkerman,

I recently built a mitx for my sister using a 4460 and an arctic cooling CPU block, it does really well.

Hello everyone, I want to make a new rig based off of the Ncase M1 but I want to keep it under the 800$ mark (if possible). 

Here is a list of some parts I've been looking. Note: Storage, OS, monitor, peripherals aren't needed, I will use the ones that I currently have.

Any suggestions for the cpu or any change in general? Thanks in advance

What price does your cpu need to be

PC is Intel Core i5 6400, GIgabyte H170 Gaming 3, Corsair Vengeance LPX 2x4GB 2400Mhz ,Sandisk Ultra Plus 128GB, WD Blue 1TB, NZXT S340, ASUS Geforce GTX 960. Fractal Design Tesla R2 650W. http://au.pcpartpicker.com/p/793XNG. Graphics card choices don't always have to be dictated on performance. If you want the game stream and power consumption of the GTX 970 get that. If you want raw performance of the R9 390 get that. In the end we are all gamers, so what if your buddy gets an extra 5 fps?

Any that can keep me good frame rate in games such as Skyrim with mods, and also one that is able to keep my budget below 800-850$

(Actually the list from part picker would have a price of 750$ because of the NCase (which cant be added to the list))

Choose a 4690k then

Maybe the pentium G3258 would be a good option?

not if your playing cpu intasive games, if you spend 100$ extra you could get a xeon, an i7 without overclocking and it would clean the floor with the pentium
