Help with choosing gaming pc parts

Hi,

 

Today I joined this forum with the need of help, I am considering to build my first gaming pc. I will be playing some light games like: Rocket league, League Of Legends, CS GO and maybe some titles like: AC 3 or 4 (I have bought them once for my low end pc which could barely run it), GTA V and Skyrim. In the future I might want to start doing let's plays, so I want it to be recording capable (for video editing I will be using my mac, which I also use for music production).

These are the parts I have chosen that might be a decent gaming rig:

1: € 712,79

CPU: Core I3-6300

GPU: MSI GTX 950 2gb

Mobo: MSI Z170A Tomahawk

Memory: Kingston HyperX FURY DDR4 2x4gb

Cooler: NZXT Kraken X41

Chassie: NZXT s340

Storage: Samsung 850 Evo 120GB

 

2: € 763,80

CPU: Core I5-6500

GPU: MSI GTX 950 2gb

Mobo: MSI Z170A Tomahawk

Memory: Kingston HyperX FURY DDR4 2x4gb

Cooler: NZXT Kraken X41

Chassie: NZXT s340

Storage: Samsung 850 Evo 120GB

 

3: € 803,79 (With € 35 cashback after 30 days, total will be € 768,79)

CPU: Core I6-6600k

GPU: MSI GTX 950 2gb

Mobo: MSI Z170A Tomahawk

Memory: Kingston HyperX FURY DDR4 2x4gb

Cooler: NZXT Kraken X41

Chassie: NZXT s340

Storage: Samsung 850 Evo 120GB

 

I would like to hear your opinions on these builds, which of these will fulfil my needs? Also the theme of the pc is red and I want it to look really clean.

Tips are always welcome.

 

Greetings,

Revess

If you're having trouble choosing parts i suggest searching on youtube for the best build at a specific price range, i would also wait for the new graphics cards to come out next month ish so the price of the older but still good cards drop :)

lemme pull up tweakers brb :)

https://tweakers.net/pricewatch/bestelkosten/982921?tm=2&pm=10&minscore=&maxdelivery=&minproducts=4&maxshops=1#shoplist

584 euros including a 1 TB HDD, this is 53 euros extra so if you don't want it you can leave it out :)

that's without a gpu, the RX 480 will probably be 200 for the 4 GB modeland 250 for the 8 GB model :)

531+250=781 euros for the non hdd 8 GB version (i recommend this one)

other options:

531+200=731 euros for the non hdd 4 GB version

584+200=784 euros for the hdd 4 GB version

584+250=834 euros for the hdd 8 GB version

i use a i7-4770 and a asus 970 with no troubles at all. so i can really recommend the 970 but don't have a lot of experience with CPU's. Maybe someone else with more experience from the forum can answer that one :D
