My Build Plan Critic

Hi my name is Mark, I´m from Czech Republic and I´m planning to build a new PC. I want to ask you for your opinions to my component choices.

I pick components so my build can be in future upgraded with additional GPU, double RAM and more storage. Possibly even water cooling.

 

This is the list of components. Highlighted components are my main choice. Note that price is in CZK so i added recalculated price in CAD for you.

I will be very happy to hear your thoughts about my choice of components. I tried to stay bellow 2000$ but it si not mandatory. Other thing is that i will buy new build in few months maybe even in summer so if there is something to wait for, like new serries of GPU or something else and u know about it plz tell me :). Is possible that prices in your country can be slightly different.

 

Thanks for your time.

 

Regards,

Mark Barina

 

PS. i attached excel and pdf with components to this topic :)

No need to be that formal dude, otherwise the motherboard your going with is overkill, you could get a 150$ mobo who'll do the same job, same performance. I don't recommend SLI just because you kight have some issues with compatibility down the road, tho it's getting better these days. That's pretty much it from the quick look I had at your specs!

Whoops, just realized you went with 3000mhz DDR4 RAM, you don't need that, get yourself some trusty 2400mhz and you'll save a few bucks because that higher frequency won't be that helpful.

 

By the way, is thgat new PC going to be used for gaming? Or like a workstation?

Get a 980 Ti. I really wouldn't spend that much money on a PC with a mid-rangish graphics card.

You are wasting a lot of money on marginally better parts.

Use my part list as a reference. Price is in CAD with 13% tax, so you can ignore it.

The problem is that this is an nVidia product and scoring any nVidia product a "zero" is also highly predictive of the number of nVidia products the reviewer will receive for review in the future.

Only yours, you don't shitpost on the same level that we can, mainly because this thread is finally dead and should be locked.

I wasn't wrong. It's extremely rare that I am. I provided sources as well. Different devs can disagree. Further, we now have confirmed discrepancy from Twitter about he use of the pre-release 1080 driver in AMD's demo despite the release 1080 driver having been out a week prior.

You apparently haven't seen his responses to questions on YouTube. He is very condescending and aggressive in his comments with which there is little justification. He acts totally different in his videos. I don't necessarily care for this content style and there is nothing really unique about him or his channel. His endless dick jokes and toilet humor are annoying as well.

Spoiler

1) get the EVGA SuperNOVA 750 G2 as your psu, its great and you can save some cash, you can lower the wattage to about 550~650W, save some cash too

2) The motherboard is slightly too expensive, but if you like the looks of it, go ahead, otherwise, get a cheaper board like the z170 pro gaming

3) i5-6600k is fine, unless you stream (with cpu encoding) and game at the same time, then get i7 6700k

4) maybe get a better gpu or wait for pascal, R9 390 is a good replacement for the GTX 970

390 performs slightly better in DX11 games and much better in DX12 games, as well as having more vram

5) get a WD blue 2tb instead of the barracuda, WD drives are more reliable

 

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately
