Hello, I'm planning on doing a pc build soon I chose these components http://pcpartpicker.com/list/s2kCyf , you may ask where is the PSU and the storage well I can use those that I have in my current computer.

I have a 1000€ budget, I do like the brands that I chose but I also like MSI.

Tell me what do you think. (changes are accepted).

that cooler is a bit expensive i would get a hyper 212 as its runs my 5820k at 4.4 with 75-85 under load 

and the cooler is half the cost but other than that its all good

Cpu: Intel i7-5820k at 4.6 Ghz // Motherboard: Asus X99 Pro // Ram: 32gb of Crucial Balistix at 2400 Mhz // Gpu: GTX 1080 Founders Edtion // SSD: Samsung 850 evo 250gb, Samsung 950 pro 256 gb, // Cooler: Cooler Master ml240r // Case: NZXT h500i

What workload do you have? are you primarily gaming? programing? rendering?.

 

If you have your heart set on the fun that overclocking can be, then by all means get the build you made. its pretty decent. Also, be sure that you have a quality PSU if you want to overclock. You can run into power stability issues on lower quality PSU's that can make even a reasonable overclock unstable. Just having enough wattage isn't everything when it comes to overclocking. If all you want is the best gaming computer for 1000 EUR, perhaps take a look at the rest of my post.

 

I'm not exactly sure how well USD scales to where you live, but you could get a 1080 in a system like that for 1000 bucks, if you don't mind giving up overclocking. get an i5 6500, a cooler like the Hyper 212 EVO (or some similar cheap air cooler where you live, or even just running stock cooler would be fine), a cheap H170/H110/B150 board that comes with the features you like, and there should be enough leftover for a 1080.

 

Also if you don't mind giving up overclocking you could get an i7 6700. You could get a H170 board like GA-H170-D3HP, a smaller cooler like a Cryorig H7, and upgrade the 6600k to a i7 6700 for about the same price. It would perform about the same in most games, but would be far better in programs that like more cores, and you would never have to worry about bottlenecking any GPU ever. the 6600k already is pretty safe as far as GPU bottlenecks go, but who knows what we'll see in a few years time. Access to that hyper threading will be extremely beneficial long term, and since you are not overclocking the i7, its quite likely it will have a longer lifespan than the 6600k (that isn't to say the 6600k is going to give up and die in a couple years or anything, it will likely still work fine by the time you go to replace it, I'm just saying its unlikely that you will NEED to replace the 6700, not until it expires at least)

 

 

 

I'm not sure how well these prices scale to your exact location and currency, but seeing as the EUR is stronger than the USD right now, it should give you enough breathing room with a 1000USD budget (about 900 EUR) in case you have any extra shipping costs or taxes or inflation or whatever. If any of these components are outrageously expensive where you are, or are unavailable, let me know and I can suggest quality alternatives.

 

i7 6700 build:

http://pcpartpicker.com/list/qGbNNN

This comes out to 50 USD cheaper than what you currently have listed, and the only thing you have to give up is overclocking, and SLI (you can still CF) which doesn't seem like its in your budget anywya. In return you get a CPU with hyperthreading  (at 4.0GHz boost clock, which is more than enough for any gaming load) which will be far better for multithreaded applications.

 

GTX 1080 Build:

http://pcpartpicker.com/list/nwDpbj

This allocates 650 USD for a 1080. There are cheaper ones, and more expensive ones. Again, you have to give up on CPU overclocking at this budget if you want 1080, but this system will out perform your current build in gaming scenarios. I chose the same motherboard again because of its quality, features, and low price. I didn't include a CPU cooler because it would be unnecessary, but if you can fork over a few more bucks for a cheap aftermarket one like a hyper 212 evo, then by all means go for it.

 

If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to ask.

I'm primarily gaming. I chose the unlocked processor and the z170 board for overclocking just to get a little more fps in games because my pc is about 7 years old and it isn't that good in nowadays games  sometimes I have big drops on some games. I don't think I need a gtx 1080 because I'll going to play at 1080p/1440p because I'll buy a monitor too but not at this moment, (my monitor is only 1050p). 

Something I want to know is about Asus vs MSI in terms of mobo a graphics cards and the features that both offer

Perhaps you should consider Asrock if you do really want to overclock, their boards are the best when it comes to overclock and generally they pack a lot of features for decent price.

 

Check the Z170 Extreme 4+ or if you really want to go hardcore, OC-Formula, but the last only recommend if your already experienced overclocker.
