New Gaming Rig

[ac11d]

Hej all,  My aim is to assemble a gaming machine which will run 60 fps @ 1080p on one monitor. for the next couple years, lets say.

 i am about to purchase this next week, please review .

 

Phanteks Eclipse P400
Corsair RM650X
MSI Z270 Gaming Pro Carbon
Intel i5-7600K 3.80GHz
MSI Core Frozr L
HyperX 16GB 2400MHz Savage Black CL12
MSI GTX 1080 TI Founders Edition 11GB GDDR5X

 

Thanks!

if you can sacrifice somewhere for the sake of futureproofing go for a 7700k, i5 will not last the full 5 year cycle without seeing bottlenecks

Overkill AF. GTX 1070 is already in overkill territory when playing at 1080p. Get a GTX 1070 maximum or an RX 480.

Also that 1080ti will be bottlenecked by the i5 at that resolution.

Overkill for 1080p but looks to be a good gaming computer

With the 'hej' - which is common in European languages as the word 'hi' or 'hello', I don't think he's from the US. 

Meaning that I wouldn't recommend Zotac or EVGA as their support sucks total horse dick outside of the US

He could switch to the Gigabyte one.

I7-7700K is more Future proof

Indeed, im located in Poland, at the moment &i forgot to add, sorry: 

 

* i have an Patriot 240GB M.2 SSD PCIe Hellfire 2280
* im planing to upgrade the 7600k for the 8gen i7 in xmas (and sell this one to a friend)

* currently doubting between HyperX 16GB 2400MHz Savage Black CL12 or G.SKILL 16GB 3200MHz Trident Z Gray CL16

* currently doubting on the 1080 ti between the Gigabyte one or the MSI as the motherboard is MSI

ram speeds will improve gaming performance, especially when cpu bound. i'd get the 3200mhz ram. don't need to worry about the brand, the graphics card won't be less compatible to the motherboard just because they're of a different brand.

depends on the price, they have the same latency.. 

calculating latency by using the formula; (CAS) * 2000 / (RAM SPEED) = latency

12 * 2000 / 2400 = 10 ns

16 * 2000 / 3200 = 10 ns

 

not taking into account 4/8word latency, which is generally higher but ive forgotten the formula
