[knightslugger]

so what do you need help with?

[Dissitesuxba11s]

My only suggestion is to add an SSD for faster boot times.

nvme

Your build looks nice but do what Dissitesuxba11s said and get a 120gb SSD. Its literally about 50 bucks for one of them

[Jurrunio]

dump the air cooler, the stock one is good enough, The 212x isnt good enough to handle overclocked 6 core CPUs either.

 

get another 1080 or 1070ti (95% the performance of 1080, sometimes much cheaper). Zotac's board design is even worse than reference as current filtering bits are omitted.

 

power supply tier 3 or above in this list:

Not thar Corsair VS crap

Wow, you really need an SSD, and i'd recommend a better cpu to pair with your gpu.

Nah, poor value when compared to SATA ones

That i5 in games is about on par with an i7-7700k in most cases... there'd be no bottlenecking what-so-ever

Dump INTEL for AMD  

 

Intel Meltdown stuff won`t be fixed until next generation . The patch is just that, and i am sure will be hack

I'm tired of all these comments on build posts :P, no I'm not an Intel fanboy, I mine on Radeon GPUs. Just seriously, it's getting old.

Get a ssd and possibly a bigger HDD if you have a extensive steam library.

Your PS looks fine But i would go with a Lepa water cooler they are cheap i have one and it keeps my cpu at 40c on full load

Concidering that no bottlenecking is apparent in my i5 8600K system, i'd still invest in a better cpu.

[Maico]

Just download the microsoft patch and we will be fine for now

download link here Microsoft releases windows patches download links found here http://www.icttoolbox.nl/info/meltdown-cpu-vulnerability-microsoft-patch-links-here/

For 1080p you don't need a Gtx 1080. Go with a cheap 1070ti, if possible. Also you can use a stock cooler. Get an ssd and a better PSU
