Another lazy persons help me build pc thread ( optimal for 1080p)

[Cynical Underachiever]

Hello. Been lurking here since 2008 , but never bothered making an account mostly because i really feel like It is pointless, and i have nothing to add to the conversations. (Not that anyone cares)

Anyway. I know very little about computers and have never build one, and would appreciate some help chosing the parts. (Friend will help with building, if necessary)
What i need is a pc (just the pc) for 1080p resolution gaming, that is somewhat future proof.
i5 , gtx1060 , 16gb ram, atleast 200gb ssd, and 1tb hdd was what i was thinking.
Edit: would like it to play newest games on ultra for now, gta5, witcher 3 etc...

I live in Finland and don't really have a budget but would prefer if it costs me less than 1000€

Thanks.

Not sure how the rules on these forums works, but I typed a long post yesterday and it doesn't show here. Anyway, i already oredred the parts and just wanted to make sure it was not a bad purchase and that all parts are compatible. also possibility to just upgrade the GPU for 4k in the future. ordered parts + monitor for 1865€ from Jimms (dot) fi

they are still waiting for some parts and i can cancel it or change the order.

Intel CPU's are future proof because nothing much happens there anymore but graphics cards not so much.

And here you go: http://imgur.com/4oaNhsH

I would change that GTX 1060 with a GTX 1070.

Thanks! 1080p is satisfying enough to me for now, but might want to upgrade when the next generation gpu's come from nvidia. was thinking 1180TI , if it even will be called that and when the monitors become cheaper. just wondering if i will need to replace any other parts and if my motherboard will support next gen gpu's.

Intel keeps changing the socket and if it's the same socket thats being used then you would probably have to flash the UEFI in order to support the new cpu on an old motherboard.

I think that the successor to the GTX 1080 Ti will be called the GTX 2080 Ti.
