Build around Asus GeForce GTX 1070 ROG Strix OC 8GB

Hi all,

 

I am working on my build around  Asus GeForce GTX 1070 ROG Strix OC 8GB DDR5 256Bit which I already have. I could really use any advice I could get, so please don't hesitate.

I already have the case Thermaltake Core V71 and PSU Corsair RM850 which I will use also.

 

So this is what I am planning to get:

CPU:  Intel Skylake Core i7 6700K 4.0GHz

CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series H110i Extreme Performance

MB: ASUS MAXIMUS VIII FORMULA

Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX Black 32GB DDR4 2400MHz CL16 Dual Channel Kit

SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 500GB

 

What would you change in the above list? And why?

Please note that I live in Est Europe, so getting specific parts might be a challenge.

 

Thanks,

Lu

Hi,

 

I almost forgot. The main goal of the build is for gaming, maybe also streaming.

 

Thanks again,

Lu

32GB of RAM seems a little overkill for "maybe also streaming". I would just step down to 16GB, that is still PLENTY.

And if would get a cheaper motherboard. Asus Maximus VIII Hero if you really want something high-end or Asus Z170 Pro Gaming if you want to step down in price quite a bit.


And you should probably get an HDD for mass storage. WD Blue 1TB?
