Well I don't have money for that, but this is gonna be good enough to hold the 6600k and a 1060 overclocked right?

I also have the NZXT Hue kit, that won't be a problem?

Way more than enough.

You could probably run that on a good 400 watt power supply (although that would not be recommended).

Do yourself a favour and switch out the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO for the CRYORIG M9i or H7. You'll skip the pain associated with mounting it on the socket.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

Got you an i7, a better cooler, better SSD, cheaper HDD (for storage it doesn't really matter that much), better case, PSU that's a little bit worse but is still way more than good enough for a 1060, a cheaper 1060, and it all still fits your color scheme.

My account is almost entirely dormant. Hope you all are having a grand time. Many years of fun were had here.

That won't work for me cause a lot of those parts are unavailable or overpriced here
