Gaming build in range 750 - 900

[Deleted]

Good evening helpful fellows

I've been reading through some topics and I picked some components which I think match my preference.
The purpose of the build is to play games like WoW Legion, Skyrim(modded) and Witcher 3.
My budget range is about €750 - €900 (Netherlands), so any recommendations or suggestions are appreciated.

GPU: EVGA Geforce GTX 1060 6gb
CPU: Intel core i5-6500k 3,2ghz 6mb
Motherboard: MSI B150 PC Mate
RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB
Power Supply: EVGA 600b bronze
Storage: Samsung 850 EVO 250gb SSD
Case: NZXT source 210 elite

For the RAM I am also looking at 1x 8gb instead. (For instance Kingston HyperX FURY DDR4)

Thank you in advance!

If you buy a motherboard with two ram slots 1x8 is fine, but ideally you could find one with 4 slots and get a 2x8gb kit. Couple other changes you could make is a lower power but higher quality PSU for a similar price, gold rated preferably. I would also look a t 480gb SSD's, samsung carries a large price premium you could probably find a 480gb ssd for not a whole lot more money than a 250gb samsung. You could also look at the 3gb model gtx 1060, its a much better deal than the 6gb card and is only 5-7% slower on average.

I like your build but if you not overclock the 6500k, buy a 6500 non-K instead or if you overclock, go with the 6500k and buy a z170 motherboard instead a B150.

I recommend this MOBO for the 6500k:

Best motherboard under $130

And best CPU air cooler price/performance:

Also, it's better 2x RAM modules because you can benefit the dual channel technology. Buy 2x8gb or 2x4gb

Thanks for your replies guys. I haven't heard of x2 RAM preference before, so that's a big help
I am not really planning on overclocking, so 6500 would be a good idea.

About the GPU cooler, often I don't see it mentioned in the builds on this forum. Should I include one in this build?

Cheers!

Not GPU cooler, CPU cooler but if you buy a 6500 non K you can use the default intel cpu cooler. Custom CPU coolers are for K cpus because Intel not include default coolers inside K CPUs box nowadays.
