Motherboard and Case

[AllenSalar]

I want to purchase an Intel Core i5-6600K, and I currently have an MSI GeForce GTX 750 TI (upgrading it). 

 

What motherboard, mid-tower case, and power supply would you recommend?

 

I already have plans for what memory sticks and SSDs to purchase.

 

Thank you.

is this strictly a gaming build or anything else?

Would strictly be a gaming build.

For the case I would recommend NZXT's Noctis 450, imo it looks really nice. You can also poke around NZXT's website; they have a lot of great stuff other than the N450 that might float your boat more. A pretty solid Z170 board would be the ASUS z170-A. It has nice features, good looks, and won't eat your wallet too much.

what resolution of gaming? if you go up on GPU, will you increase your res, too?

 

reasoning for questions is that you can drop some major cash on a mobo/CPU

but spend smart money and upgrade GPU to a better performing option depending

on resolution and games played. there are many options, whats your budget?

I only plan on playing at a max resolution of 1920x1080 and yes, I will be upgrading my GPU aswell. My budget would be around $400-$500 at the moment. With the CPU eating like $275 of that budget (if purchased from NewEgg). (I already have a GPU in plan which won't be part of the $400-$500 budget)

Seems good, I'll take it into consideration.

Stick your budget into a sick GPU and be much happier.
