Build from bottom or not?

[BrisoX]

Hy. So i can put together 2 build. I already have PSU CM V750W and MBO MSI Z170A Krait Gaming. I can either get build with better MBO 'cus this one doesn't have a lot of good reviews but sacrifice CPU power or get better CPU with this MBO. what do you suggest?

i would go for the i7,

motherboards nowadays are pretty much the same

its just the aesthetics, so if you like the maximus board, you can get it

if the computer is purely for gaming purpose, an i5 will do just fine anyway

think that this MBO will do okay OC to 4.6GHz

and yes, the PC is only for gaming..

overclocking nowadays are mostly chip limited than motherboard limited tbh

unless you're going LN2 of course lol

 

well purely gaming, an i5 will do fine, but its always better to get a higher performing chip if you can

as you see, i can get both of them haha but idk about this MBO. if i go with maximus hero it's a bit more expensive.. but would like to have good looking PC but also performance haha

as i mentioned, motherboard nowadays isnt really going to affect performance much

unless you take a $50 board and compare it to a $300 board lol

 

the MSI krait is a decent board and will do just fine
