Could you help me?

Thanks man, but I've a few questions.

- What's wrong with my CPU Cooler?

- What's the difference between the EVGA 1060 and your Gigabyte 1060?

- Why should I buy such an expensive motherboard?

Thanks! But is a HDD necessary? Or can I just use my SSD?

i would 100% recommend an SSD JUST FOR WINDOWS, and an HDD for everything else

 

your pc will boot (start up) much faster and all programs will load faster!

Yes I know, But is it possible to run a PC with only an SSD?

it is, although, once again, from my previous experiance it is much better not only now, but in the long run, to have an SSD for windows and an SSD/HDD for everything else.
