Budget Gaming PC Build ! Final Check

Rebornify

Two things:

 

-You cannot overclock on that motherboard. Go for a Z170 mobo or i5 6600 instead.

 

-Change the PSU to a more reliable SeaSonic or XFX one.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

My friend had a Bazooka motherboard, he told that when installing RAM the both holders broke down, the motherboard was refunded with a new one. He says that it's a great choice ;)

Oops didn't state that I'm already exceeding my budget ~ unless you want me to change the cpu 

Hmm is it not worth to get it if you're not overclocking?

You'll save money by going with a locked i5 6600. A SeaSonic/XFX PSU will only cost a bit more, it's not too much.

 

What's your budget?

Hmm...

 

I'd probably just go for the build you posted with an i5 6600 since you can't overclock (the i5 6600 is essentially the i5 6600K locked) and go for a PSU in tiers 1-3 in this list:
