Hi, 

 

I'm looking to upgrade my pc from a fx6100(biggest mistake of my life) 

To a Intel i5 8600k.

 

But these days om not that invested in pc's anymore because of the Neverending rotation of new pc parts. 

 

So I would like to ask some help/ your suggestions of parts. 

Note that best bang for the buck is central in the build, but higher end may also be welcome if in your mind it's the better way to go. 

 

PC priorities: it has to be fast and silent(please give me some tips in the silent part, my current PC drives me nuts)

I prefer atx Form factor. 

 

What I'm looking for. 

1. I5 8600k

2.mobo(oc because of k series) 

3. Ram(16gig 2stick)

4. Allin one liquid cooler. 

5. psu (has to support at least 1080ti no sli/ future high end cards 1180ti?????)

6. Case mid tower or large tower (s340 elite? Or something that looks as good) 

7.better case fans? (optional) 

 

 

For now that is all,  for gpu I will be sticking with my gtx770 because prices and all and will probably pick up 1 when the new gpu lineup land. 

As for a ssd I got one but when I'll be upgrading that thing I was thinking on taking a m.2 ssd 

 

Also for the case I don't really care about the side panel it doesn't have to be transparent the thermals and silent part are more important. 

 

If I missed something please fill in. 

 

In the picture below is what I thought would be fairly decent. note, ignore the gpu and the ssd that will be for a later date. 

 

So what I think for the upgrade i would like to allocate 1000euro/1200dollars less is always better. (you don't have to bother exchanging the vultas if your in the US I'll  do that when I'll start looking at my local pc web stores for the parts

 

If you are missing any information please ask me. 

 

Sorry if the post is unclear or something does not follow the guidelines, I'm not that good at posting on forums and I try my best to. Be as clear as possible. 

 

Thank you in advance, 

Nick.

What would your suggestion be for AMD that at least can cope with the i5 I picked, also I got at bit scared away from AMD after my last CPU and I heard that for gaming the Intel is still the better pick. My goal with this build is buy a good system now and upgrade after like 5 years or so.
