First PC Build Help

[Y_Chris_Y]

Can I have some help with this build please?

My budget is around £1000 including Windows.

I dont want to use microsoftswap to purchase my windows licence

The build will be used for high intensity gaming on two monitors at first and later three. Atleast 1080p.

Looks good pal I'd maybe look at getting rid of the wifi adapter and going for a MOBO that has that feature on it. Would be a much more elegant solution. And maybe spend a little more for a better cooler to really push the OC (I'm guessing you're planning to). Other than that it looks great!

BTW i would go for a gigabyte Z170 board or a asus Z170 board, they are much more powerful and better for gaming, plus get rid of the air cooler and go for the Corsair H100i liquid cooler good bang for the buck liquid cooler

Looks good. I would maybe change the hardrive to an Seagate drive.

Not necessarry. Also an own card for it means better quality.

Gaming power does not depend on your motherboard. He choosed a good MB. Also a liquid cooler is way overpower. An air cooler would be a much better choice in my opinion.

If you mean the network card; it is a more powerfull and better solution.

Overall, the system is pretty good.  That MSI board supports PCIe x4 M2 cards, so I'd recommend swapping out the 850 Evo for a Samsung 950 PRO chip.  The Read/Write speeds are much faster and will provide a lot more bandwidth than a standard SATA drive.  Unless you are planning on going Raid (which you'd need quite a few drives to equal the speed of a 950 Pro), I've built a few systems around these drives and they are insane.  (Search Youtube for LTT's review on the Sager laptop with the desktop 980 video card, he shows the read/write speeds for 2 in a raid 0 at over 3.5 GBps)

Might suggest upping your RAM to 32 GB in quad channel, but that's not super important. Other than that, you're good.

someone mentioned getting a different SSD which I 110% support, but I'm a bit iffy on the video card and mobo (though I may just be biased.) I think a Z170 board or something just a tad bit nicer wouldn't be a bad idea.

 

plus the AMD card might seem attractive with the 8gb of VRAM, but it'll rarely be used to it's

full potential. (maybe this changes due to the dual/tri monitors, but I highly doubt so.) you'd get better performance from something like a 970-960 (pro tip: going for

EVGA b-stock gives you a tad bit off, which is always nice, and they're practically mint condition bc it's just some rich  kid who saw it had a scratch and demanded a refund)
