not sure about that PSU, 80+ doesn't equal quality in all cases. 950 is old, not even equal to 680/770.

DDR3 on Skylake can push the memory controller too far due to voltage, try for cheap 2133Mhz DDR4

yea but the mobo is only ddr 3 or do i need to change do ddr4 mobo?

gigabyte have a ddr4 version of that mobo buy that or any mobo with ddr4 and buy 8gb 2133mhz kit

for video card buy 1050ti, rx 470, gtx 1060 3gb or a rx 480 4gb if ur budget allows( the cards are given from worst to best, that is 1050ti worst and 480 best among the 4 cards)

u really dnt need a a platinum edition psu plus the manufacturer is not very well known..grab a 400 watts 80+ bronze from coolermaster, corsair, antec. it may help with reducing cost and get a better gpu

yes..but if u can find try buy Asrock B150M Pro4/Hyper..the price is simmilar

and if u can find the asrock mobo buy a 8gb kit of 3000 or 3200mhz kit....the price will be about $5-10 more than a 2400mhz kit
