New PC Build for arround 2k

[DankPCMasterRace]

Hello everyone!

 

Im planing  a new pc build for livestreaming and gaming purposes for arround 1,400 € because i dont need al the components if i did it would cost me arround 2k€ and this is what i came up with:

________________________________________________

New parts:

CPU - Intel i7 6700k 4.00Hz

Water cooling - You guys said to throw this one out (Corsair H75) so i exchanged it with Corsair H110 280mm

Motherboard - MSI Z170A-PRO

RAM - Kingston Fury 16GB (2x8 DDR4)

GPU - Palit Geforce GTX 1080 Super JetStream 8GB

Case - I also changed the case from (NZXT S340) to a new and more compact Corsair carbide 400C

________________________________________________

Previus PC parts:

PSU - Sharkoon 700W 80BronzePlus

HDD - WD Blue 1TB

SSD - Samsung 120GB (Windows 10 only on it)

CDROM - Random one for 20€

_______________________________________________

 

The main question i have now is will it work if i just plug my SSD with a preinstalled windows10 that i used on my other pc with a totaly diferent motherboard and a AMD CPU? Or will i have to reinstall everything? I know ill have to delete old drivers for GPU and install new ones but will i have to totaly erase everything i really dont want to loose any files

 

Thankyou for your tips and comments!

Your OS should transfer just fine.
I would say to switch the H70 out for a H100 or 110 if you can fit it in your case.

yes the 120 mm watercoolers are generally not that good compared to other air coolers in there price range

Dont buy a H75, go for high end air for better price/performance.

I switched to H110 and changed out the case

Good, from what I've seen a 110 will be able to let your chip hit its stability limit before getting close to the heat limit so you should be good to overclocking to your hearts content
