Go to solution Solved by Kudzė,

OK i lock this post because I have entire system if anybody wants to see what i finished up with here's link: http://prntscr.com/9ynvz1

Hello! :)

 

So my friend wants to build new pc (He's going to spend around 900 euros for it) so he asked me for helping to pick parts, and I'm asking you to help me! :D

Ok so builds his rig for gaming and streaming.

I think something with skylake i7 and gtx 970 would work for him, but I want to ask your opinion about it ;D

And if somebody would like go to website and pick parts. Pick them from http://www.skytech.lt/ because we'd like to buy from here!:)

 

Thanks

Sounds good. Use Part Picker top decide your best choices.

 

I have a setup very similar, and the GTX 970 is great.

I live in lithuania.

 I think normal case would work (I think he would like case with features like cable managment and stuff like that)

About colors I don't know I'm going to ask him later

For overcloking, he doesn't want to void his warranty so NO overclocking :(

Ok, but I heard that gtx 970 only has 3.5 gb not 4 gb and It is around ~1.5 years now So mby we should wait for new generation GTX cards?

It does have 3.5gb of RAM. But really isn't a big issue. Waiting for the new GTX cards could take a long time more... The release date isn't set yet.

You cannot fit a Skylake I7 and a GTX 970 in that budget (using german pricing).

 

Also, the 970 has a full 4GB, the last half gig is slower.

Ok, that's strange when consoles has ~8 gbs of vram and pcs have ~4 :D So 4gb is enough for 1080p gaming and how much this rig will run all games on ultra settings

Going to run you around 100 euro. 

 

I would recommend not going skylake, possibly even not an I7.
