New PC build

[Fawn]

Hello, I'm the one who is waiting for H310 motherboard to minimalize cost of build but I found nice rabate for Gigabyte z370 Aorus Gaming K3 (124$ instead of 152$), so I decided to try build something up. The ALC1220 encourage me, its like h310 + some decent PCI audio card.

At the moment build looks this way. There is no GPU because prices are wild these days, and no storage due to the fact that I've SSD 240gb and do not need more at all. I would wait till Nvidia relase 20xx series and then catch mid-end one.

Have a critic look at my prebuild and say what I should replace.

 

I'm wondering, is in that case  any sense to buy faster RAM? Or maby buy 2133/2400 and OC? I have no goddamn idea how to OC and stuff... I've heard the mobo mentioned by me has problem with xmp profiles, so i'm woried that i would be not up to challenge. I'm more like plug and play user

 

For now, shopping cart content is priced about 750$ (without rabate).

You can buy windows 10 as a key and download later polish language pack. You can install it with a bootable USB stick and save some money there.

I do not really know what licence says about that... BOX version isn't assigned with one MOBO, OEM is, dunno how it works with cheap keys from internet. I'm just little bit cagey

Hey!

 

I have bought some licences from Kinguin. Yes they are oem, but it was for like 25 euro, and honestly it does not matter if it is oem or not.. everything worked perfectly. Hah, good old silentiumpc :-D nice to see something europian. Keep these rams 2666 mhz should be okay for this kind of build. The 8400 is not overclockable so ye just plug and play. Nice build btw. The board could be a bit better but it is okay for non-overclockable cpu.

Thx for a reply! I take OEM Windows in consideration, it's  - hell yeah -  cheaper. Silentiumpc time to time bang for the buck   I'm wondering about build based on i3 8100. Is there really big performance difference between i3 8100 and i5 8400?

 

I've calmed down and probably wait for h310 anyway.

Well in my location R5 1600 costs about 215$... I'm wondering if it is worth to wait for ryzen refresh.

It turned out the re-ryzen was not really worth waiting in my case (no semi-pro work at all, just casual gaming). So I'm here to complete final build.  We have a lot of cheaper MOBOs for 1151 on market as well,, so here we go!

1. I5 8400  (202$)

2. Seasonic Focus Plus 550 (88$)

3. Gigabyte B360m HD3 (after rebate 70$) or Gigabyte Z370P D3 (97$ after rebate) - I choose these because of good price, and I need to make sure that I should go with that low z370 and 3000mhz-3200mhz RAM or stick to b360 and 2666mhz-2800mhz (5$ cheaper ;O).

4. 2x8 gb RAM.  As I mentioned above, Patriot Viper 2800 cl16 or ADATA XPG z1 3000 CL 16 or Goodram 3200 IRDM. (~205$)

5. Case SilentiumPC RG4 (44$ just bang for the buck in my location - case little bit better than zalman z3)

6. CPU cooling SilentiumPC Fera (29$) - i heard BOX cooler is quite loud.

7. Windows 10 BOX (138$) I decided to buy BOX version after reading

http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/id-3417410/windows-oem-keys-sold-kinguin-legit-legal.html

 

The price with Z370 = 803$.

 

I have storage already , and I will not take GPU at the moment (waiting for GF 11xx or 20xx).

If I should change anything just please point it.
