Assemble Pc

[Andreas360]

Hello guys I'm assembling a gaming cpu.

I've choosen the following parts.

1)  intel i7 6700.

2)  WD cavier blue 1 tb 7200rpm hard disk.

3) Kingston HyperX fury black 8gb ddr4 2133mhz RAM.

4) Motherboard is yet to be decided.

5) PSU also not decided.

My combined budget for both the PSU and motherboard is exactly 285 American dollars. In that i want the psu as well motherboard.

Plz suggest me the best in my given budget.Thank you!

What is your budget for the entire build, as we can change a few things and get a better computer

[maxicosi]

1. Its a gaming PC, the CPU is only the processor.

2. Don't you mean a graphics card? 'Cause that's an important part in a gaming rig.

The PSU is not that hard to decide, there's enough wattage calculators online.

[Sauron]

If it's a gaming computer you'll really need a dedicated graphics card, and that will suck away a considerable chunk of your budget. If you can give us your whole budget we can help you spec out the whole thing.

I dont know what your budget is but i took a guess and made a pc that will run better. the i7 6700 is not at all needed for this application and as such is just wasting money, money that can go towards a decent gpu

 

the PC I made:

i5 6400

Asus Z170-A (allowing you to upgrade to a K skew later)

8Gb Kingston DDR4

Silicon Power 120gb SSD

1TB Hitachi HDD

Zotac 750ti

Corsair 200R

EVGA SuperNOVA NEX

GUYS FOR NOW MY BUDGET IS AROUND 750 DOLLARS EXCLUDING THE CPU CABINET AND THE GPU.I WANT TO KEEP THE PROCESSOR i7(not overclocking it so exclude the K).Also regarding the GPU, in the next six months I'll be getting it and my budget for that is around 450 to 500$. So suggest accordingly.Thnx!

Maybe I can come up with a more accurate part list if you tell me your location + budget in local currency? And perhaps an online store you're planning to buy the parts from if there is.

What is the CPU cabinet? The case?

[ehawkins2232]

I think you should add an ssd for the os and main files. Even if you're on a tight budget, I think it's still worth the price.

i'm from India.And my budget would be around 50,000 Indian Rupees.(execluding the gpu and the case but do include the i7 6700).Thnx

[Tim Serious]

where u live in india that would help ....... buy from stores near your area they will have better deals than online .......

 

for 50k Rupees (excluding gpu and case) u can get this ........

 

1) cpu - i7 6700 21-23k 

2) motherboard - b150 chipset motherboard 7-8k 

3) ram - 16 Gb (2x8gb) 6k 

4) hard disk - 1tb western digital blue 3.5k 

5) ssd - 240 gb 5k 

6) psu - depends on which graphics card u are buying .... but get a good brand power supply ....

everything will come under 50k easily ....

For motherboard i was thinking about

Gigabyte GA-Z170-D3H 

and i already have an ssd so exclude it too.

I just need a psu that can power a gtx980 in the future so suggest me according to that.Thnx!

[Tim Serious]

u don't need a z170 motherboard ..... z170 chipset motherboard support overclocking as i7 6700 cannot be overclocked so no need to pay extra for z170 ... u can also go h170 motherboards they will have some extra features like more usb ports and usb type c and some other extra features they will cost little more than b150 motherboards but less than z170 motherboards

 

and buy seasonic 520w power supply will cost about 5-6k will be enough for that and are u going to buy gtx980 cause u should buy gtx1060 or gtx 1070 they are newer generation gpus perform better and consume less power

as to my knowledge, vga to hdmi not possible ..... so i would suggest u should change your monitor as it will be old and not that good if it has only vga port ......

 

Edit - it also has dvi-I pretty so u can use a dvi-i to vga adapter ...... but if you have money i will still recommend to change your monitor.

say your edit just now ..... gtx 1060 would peform same as gtx 980 and will cost less ..... gtx 1070 will outperform gtx 980.

i'd probably go for 1070 if money permits but if not the 1060 is for sure.
