Planned PC build

[Brocco Boi]

So I was planning to build a pc in the range of €1000 to €1100 ($1165 - $1281) and until this point I have got some items selected:

-i5 8600k (planning to oc)

-CM hyper 212 evo

-Asus Prime z370-p

-G.Skill aegis 2x8gb (3000MHz)

-Nzxt s340

-Corsair cx600 80+ bronze

-Sandisk pro 480Gb

-1TB harddrive from my pc now

As you can see I haven't included the gpu, because my plan was to buy the gtx 1160/2060 and keep my gtx 750ti from my current pc.

So my question is: is this all compatable and is this a good build for 1080p 60Hz and maybe some 144Hz if I fancy that in the future?

Thanks In advance

• Get a better cooler. The CryOrig H7 would be a good affordable cooler.
• I'm not sure about that motherboard; might have lackluster VRM's. Something worth looking into.
• Get a better PSU. Check the PSU tier list, try and go for tier 1 or 2.

I can reassure you that with that cpu and a decent gpu around 1070-1070Ti you should easily be able to play on 1080p 144Hz, I cant tell how things look for 1440p 144Hz since my Monitor is 1080p but I dont expect a big performance loss

Thanks for the tips and I saw on the PSU tier list the one I chose was on tier 5, so I am defenetly going to upgrade that one. Going to do some more research on the rest of your points

Okay nice to know I'm okay in the performance department as of cpu and gpu

I've done some more research on the psu, but I still want know how much worse the psu I chose is over the ones in tier 1 or 2, is it risk of breaking or something else, like just bad performance?
