Advice on new build

partymarty

Hello guys,

 

I'm helping somebody with collecting components for a pc we're gonna build.

Budget = 1000 euros (max 1100)

Everything has to come from www.azerty.nl (due to warranty)

All the prices below are edited to the prices that Azerty is selling them for. The currency is euros, not dollars.

 

Explanation about the choices I made:

His pc is strictly for gaming, so I wanted to go Intel, also he's not that much into AMD. He has 0 pc experience and pisses his pants when he hears the word 'overclocking'.

8600 = non-k, cuz he isn't going to overclock.

Hyper 212 = no overlock, so there isn't going to be excessive amounts of heat + the netherlands isn't that much of a warm country.

Asus Prime B360 = Just a basic mobo, we went for Asus because I prefer asus mobos over any brand else, never had problems with them + bios is nice + build quality is high.

16gb 2400mhz= 16gb for futureproof gaming. 

860 evo = simple boot drive

1tb barracuda = 1tb game storage

MSI GTX 1060 = he demands that it's a NEW gpu, so his budget won't be able to get a 1070.

Sharkoon case = ugly as fuck, but his pc is standing in a place where you can barely see it + he doesn't care about looks.

Corsair RMx 650w = I prefer to take decent/high-end PSUs so you can use them for more builds. And because I think buying good PSUs is a good idea after all, I won't go any lower on quality than this...

 

Do you guys think this is this best build for the budget?

 

Thus far I've got this:

1- Why take a i5-8400 over the i5-8600 when it's just 10 euros cheaper?

2- I prefer to not take a Kingston A400 as they are pretty crappy

3- You went 144 euros over budget

4- Motherboard was ONLY ASUS (said that in original post)
