Go to solution Solved by Quaker,

Suggestions:

 

1. If budget allows, go for a B150 or H170 based motherboard with 4 RAM slots (so that you can ...)

 

2. Get 2x4Gigs of RAM rather than single stick.

 

3. Since you're not overclocking, the stock cooler that comes with the i5 will do. If you want something a bit quieter (and cooler) get a CM Hyper 101i, TX3, 103, etc, or similar cooler. (Or a CM Hyper 212)

Not too shabby. Though with that budget, get a 212 evo, and while i always recommend something else, its a great cooler and its great to have if you ever want to get an overclockable CPU.

Suggestions:

 

1. If budget allows, go for a B150 or H170 based motherboard with 4 RAM slots (so that you can ...)

 

2. Get 2x4Gigs of RAM rather than single stick.

 

3. Since you're not overclocking, the stock cooler that comes with the i5 will do. If you want something a bit quieter (and cooler) get a CM Hyper 101i, TX3, 103, etc, or similar cooler. (Or a CM Hyper 212)

A sieve may not hold water, but it will hold another sieve.

i5-6600, 16Gigs, ITX Corsair 250D, R9 390, 120Gig M.2 boot, 500Gig SATA SSD, no HDD
