Posted March 24, 2017 i still didn't buy any parts,just looking for some thoughts about my build,especially the motherboard CPU: i5 4440 (maybe a 4460) Gpu: rx 460 2gb PSU: TT 450w litepower HDD: WD 1TB MB: MSI h61I e35 b3 my main question is about the MB it's the cheapest one i could afford in my country,was wondering if it would fit this build,is it too outdated?will it be enough for the few years coming ahead? monitor's resolution is 1366x768 (enough for me for now,i'll get a 1080p in the future maybe) mostly going to play online games (overwatch,WoW,Dota2) and some triple A titles (witcher 3 far cry 4) P.S: i would've went Kabylake with an i3 7100 or even the pentium,but i already bough the ram long ago,didn't want to waste any more money,so i went with the 4th Gen cpu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted March 24, 2017 it'll run great for a few years, considering its 768p it would fit the build,as long as you don't go for the 4460, in which case you would need to somehow flash the newest version of the BIOS to maintain compatibility Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017) Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 138 is a good number.

Posted March 24, 2017 That pus is listed as tier 6 on the forums power supply tier list General rule of thumb, don't cheap out on power supplies. when they die they like to take other components with them. Also the website says something about its max combined output is only 385w? http://www.thermaltake.com/products-model.aspx?id=C_00001755 personally I’ve had 2 power supplies die on me (Store bought computer with cheapo units) and both times it took the motherboard with it. I would suggest taking a look through that post and find better quality power supply and save a bit longer if you have to, to get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have listed an H61 board which is for Ivy Bridge and Sandy Bridge cpus (eg i5-2XXX and i5-3XXX). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
