Your English is perfect.

I recommend however that you change out the PSU to a more reliable one and that you change the GTX 970 to an R9 390, but that is personal preference.

Also, why use that motherboard with that CPU?

You get K CPU with B MOBO. So you get overclockable CPU with non overclockable MOBO

You mean that i can't overclock with this Mobo? If so do you recommend new Cpu or Mobo?

I cannot gurantee that the PSU is powerful enough, I'd reccomend looking elsewhere. (Treat it as a placeholder). This build is more expensive but it allows you to fully utilize the power of the I5 6600K with the Z170 motherboard. I've removed the SSD because you can always buy one later, and 240GB is ( In my opinion) not enough. The colour theme is red and black.

Okay so if I want to stick with this build should I change the PSU?

Certainly. The PSU is too weak and leaves no room for improvement. Its just a placeholder.

I love my MSI so I would go with them but I think that EVGA, MSI or Gigabyte is a much better option than ASUS as far as GPUs

If you can afford to, I recommend a Corsair RMI variant.

[Becausei'mBatman]

Don't buy that ssd, it's really fucking bad, like really bad, get a samsung 850 instead. I'd go for a evga g2 600w psu and get a z type board.

I'm gonna be honest and say that I am not smart when it comes to PSU's, you're better off asking someone else.

to be honest I'd say take the PSU if you really can't get a better one now and buy a better one later down the road and sell the one you got now to a friend to make back some of your cash.
