New PC Build 15.0

[Catbattle]

15th draft of this build. Geez I`m a perfectionist. 

In any case, I want to play about every game for the next 10 years medium settings 1080p 60fps. Will this be able to accomplish that? Anything I should change? This is stretching my budget as it is. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/2C3GwV

Also can someone tell me if this will be a problem? "Some Intel H110 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Kaby Lake-S CPUs"

Edit: Also be able to run vr comfortably in future.

[The Sloth]

nope, get a x99 cpu like a 5820k or a 6800k and a gtx 1080, also 10 years is a long time, i am not sure how much we will improve in the future.

6-8 years kinda. 1080 is much more expensive, and whats wrong with the cpu I chose? Bad for gaming?

BIOS update could be an issue. One has to check before buying.

 

Why the very odd memory configuration?

With a $1000 dollar budget? Good Luck.

I would wait longer for Ryzen 5 and 3. The first cpu they will release has 4 cores 4 threads.

$50 left in the budget, you can use it for another part of the build if you want.

A 6800k is about $500 usd. I am saying that it will not fit a budget of $1000 including the rest of the equipment.

Then the memory configuration is not optimal!

Ten years is a lot to ask, too much of anything, really. I'm only expecting my GTX 1070 to hold up at 1080p ultra for 3-4 years tops, then I'll have to either dial back the settings or upgrade. You've also got to keep in mind that the resolution on monitors and in games will continue to increase. I would guess that we're about three generations out from 4K being a readily available thing, as GPU horsepower keeps increasing while prices inflate more slowly, and 4K displays become more affordable. Back in 2010, for example, the GTX 285 could play just about anything in 1080p. Today, it can play virtually nothing AAA and modern in 1080p at detail levels above low and hope to sniff 60FPS.  You're asking a 1070, a step down from the 285, to hold up longer in an age when GPU technology is increasing more quickly. I don't think you're going to get that.

 

I'd also like to suggest that builds you're hoping to keep up and running for 10 years should probably not have Biostar motherboards or low-end EVGA B-series PSUs in them.

Well I could always add a new Mobo or GPU but I would rather not overhaul the whole thing for a whole 10 years. At least 4 years I would like without upgrades. What should I change for that?

How long would that GPU and processor last me with triple A medium settings 1080p?

A long time I guess. Here is maxed out Crysis 3

Given your budget and desires, I'll just throw this out there:

 

A used H81 motherboard can be had for about $50-60, and a Xeon E3 1231V3 for about $200 if you look hard enough. Suddenly, you've got a system that's roughly the equivalent of a Haswell i7. Grab 16GB of DDR3 on the cheap from Craigslist, CeX, something like that, then put your savings towards a 1080 and a better PSU.

Can you explain what the visible difference would be between 8-16 gb of ddr3 to 8gb of DDR4 on multitasking, 30 tabs at once, and gaming?
