motherboard VRMs and cooler arent enough to support CPU overclocking. Replace these two or ditch the 8600k for an 8400 or 8700, up to you

 

The pricing on the graphics card on PCPP is wrong, and you'll find that out once you click the link that brings you to the selling site (amazon uk). It seems like this one is the cheapest 1060 6gb atm https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/9JyxFT/palit-geforce-gtx-1060-6gb-dual-video-card-ne51060015j9-1060d

 

A PSU like this is enough https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/B6XnTW/cooler-master-masterwatt-550w-80-bronze-certified-semi-modular-atx-power-supply-mpx-5501-amaab-us. 80+ rating isnt that important to bronze or above units.

- Overpriced SSD

how so? 109 pounds is a decent price for a 500GB 2.5" SSD, especially when it's a Samsung 850 evo.

This is the second build the OP made. It has a nearly as good cooler, a motherboard that I would change, but a nice one can be had for the same price, the RAM I'd change but again, something can be had for the same price, a larger SSD, a better case, better airflow and a wifi card for 20 pounds less

250gb SSD is suitable fr most of the people....I myself am a professional PC builder ...ND most of them r satisfied with 250gb SSD s

 

Yeah...I agree there is ba airflow in that case....I was searching fr some specific case ..but it ws out  of stock...so selected this one...

That's 50 pounds less for 5.5C. Is that not a minor increase? You could also go with the Dark Rock Pro 3, for closing the gap more.

Yes, but if you can cram 500GB into budget, would you?

Never said it was bad, it's that he managed to fit in a motherboard, and with a 10 pound increase, could get a Extreme 4.

How can I tell if a mbd is good or not?

I read all your comments, I have changed the build again: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/g9n8MZ

What do you think? I couldn't find any cheaper RAM. But I changed the case, GPU and PSU.

I am keeping the cooler as the Dark rock 3 for now as the 4th series is not on PP yet.

What does it matter if it is on pcpartpicker or not ? It sometimes takes a while for them to update things.

 

You can buy it from CCL Computers for £56.26 with free delivery.
