Budget build

[Kochen]

Hey.

 

I have created a temporary build (w/o storage) but I wanted to hear some opinions.

 

GTX 1050 Ti

Intel i3 8100

MSI Z370-A PRO

Corsair TX-M Series TX650M 650Watt

Corsair Vengeance LPX - DDR4 - 8 GB: 2 x 4 GB - DIMM 288-PIN - 2400 MHz

 

Would it be worth it to upgrade for 3000 mhz ram?

How is the intel stock cooler? Should I buy an aftermarket?

What's the build for? And why is it temporary?

I totally forgot to put it - it is for gaming but not aiming for high end titles with high graphics.

It is temporary in that sense that it isnt set in stone what I want, that is all I meant by temporary :-)

I'd get a cheaper power supply, and consider Ryzen, though the Intel chip is also solid.
I don't like the stock cooler so I'd buy something like an H7 or even an M9i.

 

Welcome to the forum!

As far as I know Coffee Lake is only compatible with Z370 boards, correct me if I am wrong though.

h310, b360, and h370 boards are now available as well as z370
