New Build. (Name TBC)

[johnno124]

This weekend i built my first computer for gaming.

So far it has well exceeded my expectations.

 

CPU: Intel i5-6500 @3.2GHz
This CPU was my choice simply because it is on the new skylake platform and i wasn't planning on overclocking on my first Build.

 

Motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty H170 Performance:

The black and red theme looked really nice when choosing and given that it comes with 2 PCIe 16x slots it will allow for a 2nd GPU later down the line.

It has run really well with Windows 10 and came with a free 3 month Xspit premium trial.

 

RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 16GB DDR4 2133

Perfect for my needs.

 

GPU: ASUS STRIX GTX 960 4GB GDDR5

Perfectly gives me 60-80FPS in TS2016 on Ultra Settings, 100FPS in minecraft with optifine

now before you say it, I know i could have waited and saved more for the 1060 and gotten better performance but i dont need the extra performance.

 

CASE: Corsair SPEC-03 RED

Looks amazing with the red LED fans in it.

I will soon invest in a Red LED strip to light the interior

 

PSU: Cooler Master GX 550W CM Storm
Powers my rig with no issues whatsoever

 

WIFI: TP-Link WN881ND 802.11b/g/n 300Mbps

Perfect for online gaming in a room with no wired internet access

Coming SOON.

 

Also i need some tips for names so feel free to leave ideas.
