yey or nay? Overkill?

[Lukas Dolk]

Hello guys! so i've been browsing the web now and started to get some kind of a plan of a rig i wanna build. I´m a bit noob to pc gaming but i'm not a complete moron since i know a few things on what to look out for when building a pc but i've never built one before. Anyways! i wanted you guys to tell me what you think of the following specs i've come up with, is it overkill? is it underpowered? what should i replace in the list? I haven't gotten around to exactly everything that's going to be in the build but i would love you guys to recommend me example what ssd i should buy since i haven't gotten around to that part yet!  

 

case: Corsair Crystal 460X RGB

Motherboard: Asus strix Z270H 1151

Cpu: I7 6700K 4,0GHz 1151

Cpu cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212X

Psu: Corsair RMX Series RM750 80Plus Gold 750W

Gpu: Asus Strix GTX 1060 OC 6GB

Ram: Kingston HyperX Fury Black DDR4 PC17000/2133MHz CL14 2X8GB

 

Please note!

Gpu that will be used in the build is already bought and currently running in my PC

It is definetly not underpowered.

 

Will you be overclocking the CPU?

[stealth80]

what monitor/res? All looks great for 1080P

Looks good to me. EVGA G2/G3 PSU might be cheaper though

I won't overklock it if not needed but maybe, but it depends on wether the motherboards supports the oc or not

It really does depend on what games you play, no ones gonna use a titan x for roblox haha. But if you like todays modern games this is definitely a great rig that will keep up to modern games for years to come

The motherboard you have chosen supports overclocking, as well as the CPU.

 

If you're not planning to, however, I'd recommend getting a CPU and mobo that doesn't to save some cash!

 

Do you have RAM?

This is meant for Arma, Battlefield, Rainbow six seige, CS:GO, a big variation of games but many high demanding games

You only need a 450W/550W psu for that build.

I've got a 500W PSU atm, I'm more thinking of being on the safe side when running OC and you never know if the 1060 some time in the future gets a brother
