Not sure about some parts...

[Kurography]

Hello community ^^

 

So my old gaming pc has been dead for a year now and I decided to build a new one. I´ve already got the most important parts figured out but I don´t know everything about computer building and so I wanted to ask for your advice.

 

So far these are my parts:

Intel i7 8770k

Corsair Hydro H60

2 x 8GB HyperX Fury DDR4 2400Mhz

STRIX GeForce GTX 1080 8GB

Asus PRIME Z370-P

Corsair RM750X

Kingston SSD UV500

Fractal Design Define S

BeQuiet BL071

 

What do you guys think? What would you change? I´m not entirely sure about the mobo and psu... By the way, I don´t need more storage as I´m going to use my old pc´s HDDs.

 

Im grateful for any answers ^^

you dont need such a high power psu  you can get away with a 550 for 650w psu.  otherwise everything looks good.  btw its the 8700k not the 8770k

thanks ^^ oh yeah that was a typo hehe. So would you say I should take a weaker psu because of performance reasons or because of my wallet?

wallet..  unless the 750w is on sale for cheaper then you dont need it

I would rather go for a samsung SSD but it is up to you. If you are not planning to get one more GPU the PSU is a overkill. Otherwise everything seems to be ok.

Should cost around the same, but better in terms of performance.

How did you do this? I mean, the build is better but costs around the same as my build, which is obviously weaker

I used the website, https://it.pcpartpicker.com/list/

It helps you compare prices of components and where it could be cheapest to buy. Though everything seems to be cheapest in Amazon Italia.

So I should probably go with your build, right? Even though I really wanted an Asus mobo and a strix gpu  but why ist the strix 1080ti so much more expensive than the zotac edition? Why are zotac gpus less expensive in general?

Ehhh, if you really want Asus Mobo and Strix GPU, then just tinker with PCPartpicker a bit. Aesthetics are important too 

 

Strix GPUs are always more expensive that other GPUs. People still choose them for compatibility with Aura Sync, which for me is worth it.
