New Build

[myselfolli]

So I want to build a kickass PC somewhere down the line - like everybody else on this forum.But since that is expencive I want to build a PC for the meantime, which I can then gradually upgrade.

For the "end result" I am planning to switch out:

 

• The i5-6600k for an i7-6700k
• The Dark Rock Advanced for an Corsair H100i v2
• The single stick of memory will be stocked up to 32GB total
• The 480 for a 1080 (or 1080ti if I feel like it's worth it)

 

I have a case (the nzxt s340 elite in black) and all my storage needs covered, which is why they are not listed above. 

 

Any thoughts/suggestions on for either of the builds?

I failed to see any problems. Okay one: no storage?

Might as well just save up for that future build or upgrade to the i7 and cooler now and grab a 1080 or 1080 Ti later.

Actually, you are right. It's only an additional 150 bucks or something. Thanks

My PC ain't kickass.

If you get this, you only need to upgrade your GPU and you are good to go.
