First build. Compatability help

[Duchess]

I want these parts. Might use a FTW gpu instead of a Hybrid. I don't want to buy a 250 dollar motherboard.  Why doesn't it like this (still way expensive) one?

I was told it's not too hard so hopefully I will be able to

click on details. you have a x99 cpu but a skylake mbo and the mbo doesn't support your cpu cooler AND you choose a micro-ATx case but a ATX mbo.

[TidaLWaveZ]

Yup you need to decide on whether you want X99 or z170, then you need to decide what form factor(size) build you're going for.

[Wouterrinos]

What are you planning to do with the computer? edditing/rendering or mostly gaming?

What he said.

 

Also, RAM?

Gaming. I picked the cpu because the game I'm going to play (when it comes out) will use the extra cores

YO! the 5820k does not fit z170!

Is that why only like 5 motherboards come up when I search?

Buying x99 just for gaming isn't really smart. Better go skylake i5-6600k and a 980ti or 390 depending on the resolution you play on.

Haven't picked it yet. Probably corsair because all the others look like fucking beyblades

I'm not sure what your searching for but both the X99 and z170 have a bunch of motherboards available(at least in ATX form factor) you might be limited to a small number if you are looking at small form factor options.

So the cpu requires that motherboard?

The case is really expensive, I would recommend something else, the hybrid card really isn't going to serve you any benifit

He did, but still, 5 is enough options in my mind.

Cpu requires X99 mbo, Case requires mini-ATX.

But again, for just gaming you don't need that many cores, x99 is for edditing/rendering and CAD modeling.

I can't justify it. It's just pretty

MBO short for motherboard?

I personally like this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811854015&nm_mc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC&cm_mmc=KNC-GoogleAdwords-PC-_-pla-_-Cases+%28Computer+Cases+-+ATX+Form%29-_-N82E16811854015&gclid=CjwKEAiA3Ou1BRDso5XyhduuwFASJABP3PEDQO54nPIjuLBAw1_CtsLleL-ISDBF7D6cm9N0by8EvxoCUHnw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds

 

It's your build, do what you like.

Yes, you guessed it

 

This would be my proposal:

But don't I need a micro or normal atx?  Not mini?

pcpartpicker says it's compatible, you can probably get it cheaper somewhere else.

He suggested a different case that said mini ATX

If you want that case just get a mini Itx mbo --> problem solved.

 

Have you looked at my build or not convinced you don't need x99?
