    Your build Looks very solid! if you want to safe some Money get a cheeper Mainboard from a good brand (asus for example).

    A good cooler is the scyte muguen 4, i own him by myself... he cools like a beast. as a tip, dont get the cheapest cooler they tend to make loud sounds very fast.

    i see that you are going to spend some Money on your case. take a look at the fractal define r4 or r5... they are in the same Price range and they are VERY good. i love my fractal r4. with some air cooler in it cools down my temperature while idle down to 8 degree Celsius. you can cool a beer in it :-)

    The motherboard has built in wifi, you could save ~20 bucks on a lower end 1060 but this one color matches and has a better cooler design.

    That mobo does not fit your CPU. You have a 1151. The mobo is for the 1150. Get the Gigabyte GA-Z170-Gaming K3.

    You need a cooler. The i5 6600k does not come with a cooler. Get the Cooler Master Hyper 212. It has thermal paste with it.

    The gfx card is outdated, so for a whole new build i would go with a 1060/1070
    AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D: Gigabyte X670 Aorus Elite AX: G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo RGB DDR5-6000 C30 : PowerColor Radeon RX 7900 GRE Hellhound OC: CORSAIR HX850i: Samsung 960 EVO 250GB NVMe: fiio e10k: lian-li pc-o11 dynamic XL:

    So it will be like this

    Graph- GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1060 DirectX 12 GV-N1060G1GAMING-6GD 6GB 192-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 ATX Video Card $280$

    Motherboard- Gigabyte Ultra Durable GA Z170 GAMING K3 LGA1151 Intel Z170 Chipset PCI E ATX Motherboard $165$

    Cooler-Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - CPU Cooler with 120 mm PWM Fan $30$

    The rest remain the same.

    The GTX 1050/Ti is coming out soon at the same price point as 960 cards now but with likely 10-15% better performance and lower power consumption.

    Moving this to the Build/Upgrade subforum.


    Also, I'd opt for a Samsung or Crucial SSD over A-Data.
    Gaming: Dual Intel Pentium III Coppermine @ 1400mhz + Blue Orb | Asus CUV266-D | GeForce 2 Ti + ZF700-Cu | 1024mb Crucial PC-133 | Whistler Build 2267
    Media: Dual Intel Drake Xeon @ 600mhz | Intel Marlinspike MS440GX | Matrox G440 | 1024mb Crucial PC-133 @ 166mhz | Windows 2000 Pro

    Looks good. Just change the RAM to DDR4
