Need help picking parts

[TubsAlwaysWins]

Can someone help me pick out parts for my PC? I would hold out for a X99 System but I am 110000000% done with my current ones bullshit. Since I don't have $2000 for a X99 system, I would like a new one for around $1000. Can someone help me out? I would like to Overclock. Silence is a thing. Im thinking a 6700K with a GTX 1070 from EVGA but im not sure if that is possible. Thanks. 16GB RAM Minimum

what are the components in your current system and why do you feel the need to upgrade? you could spend $1000 bucks on X99 now, recycle some things like your PSU, storage, GPU, and so on, and then down the road in 6 months or a year when you have more money again you could drop a new GPU into the system

 

Also, what do you intend to use your PC for? you may not even need X99

You'll need to spend atleast around 1200$ for a GTX 1070 and 6700K

I can't spend $1000 right now tho. Parts are in my sig and have been nothing but trouble. If I can I am trying to get $700 for it and then work for another $300 or however much it is, and use my Macbook Pro in the mean time

It's hard to get a 6700K and GTX 1070 inside of a 1000 USD budget.

This is something decent I put together (no Windows included):

I don't need X99. Its just a Enthusiast Chip (6800K) and I am an enthusiast

Do you mind reusing your hard-drives and and case?

Well can you throw together a parts list? (with a 6600K or a 6700K). Probably a Phantex Evolv ATX TG

Nah wanna get rid of those too. Trying to sell my system as a standalone thing for moms who want to give kids christmas gifts or something

Will be a bit hard to fit such an expensive case into this budget. What about the NZXT S340 Elite? It has TG and is really nice. 

[zehao39]

You know you can overclock i7-6xxx non-k series, so a i7-6700 will be fine

Eh. Figure it out if you can. I can go above $1000. Just needs to work for the next few years

so when you said "I would like a new one for around $1000" you really meant that you don't have $1000?

You could understand my confusion...

 

well if you want a high end rig, you very definitely should not be spending 700 at a time. That being said, if you can hold out a bit longer, you CAN get into X99 with more than 16GB of RAM if you recycle your other components: http://pcpartpicker.com/list/pgzKcc

You cannot build a system with a 6700k or 1070 for 700 bucks. 6700k is 350, 1070 is at least 400... that is 750 right there, and that is without any other part of the computer. and it doesn't make much sense to buy things now if you have the income to get something better in a few months time.

 

Looking at the specs of your current computer, there is no reason it shouldn't function okay-ish for a gaming workload (which I'm assuming that is what you're doing since you haven't told me otherwise). Try reinstalling windows, or consider doing a PC cleanup. It should perform much better than a macbook pro at pretty much anything and everything, and if its not, then that is a software/user caused issue, not a hardware one.

[Matias_Chambers]

Maybe something like this? I'll make a 700$ build if you want, but it'll have an i5 6500 and GTX 1060.

By the way, you should also consider faster memory.

Thought memory speed didn't make a difference. (Or at least a noticeable one)

I'm seeing a lot of recommendations but did I miss what the actual issue/s was/were? Would be silly to trade-in a Camaro with a broken signal light for a Lambo unless the owner just wanted and has the money for a Lambo and the signal light is just the excuse for it.

No my system is legitamitly a peice of shit. Its got 4 year old hardware. Windows hardware reserves 4.1GB of RAM. Its loud. Its hot. FPS in games drops unexplainably.

[meenmeen1103]

So the Camaro has a broken signal light, radiator leak, worn wheel bearings, 140k miles, and a throttle position sensor that cuts out randomly. Fair enough.
