What should i change?
You can go smaller on the RAM. 8 gigs will be pretty good for now, and you can always upgrade later.
Comment has been collapsed.
Nah 16 Gigs is needed for editing i think and 2x 8 gbs is better for me then 2x 4 for now or 1x 8 if i have to upgrade it later it will cost me more...
Comment has been collapsed.
Dafuq, it won't cost you more. Buy 1x 8 GB stick, then when you need the 16 GB then buy another 8 GB stick. Eezy. But if you need it for heavy video editing then go ahead.

Yeh thought so myself that one doesn't have enough power probably any suggestions for a better one?
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah I'll take a look. Also I saw that your cpu doesn't fit your mobile. Check out the website pcpartpicker. It says if there is any compatibility issues with your desired parts. And don't listen to the other guy, get a ssd and make sure you put your OS on it

Probably going with something like this
http://de.pcpartpicker.com/p/tz7b7P
But yeh probably going with a 750w maybe just to make sure i have enough for a long time and a better cooling system i think
Comment has been collapsed.
Theres no need for a 650w or even higher PSU.
I got a 480w Bequiet one (so it's not one of those shitty chinese ones), running an i7, 980ti and other stuff with it.
You just have to buy a good one.
But the biggest problem you'll have is...that processor won't fit onto your Mobo...

Wait it does socket is 1151 on both or are did u not see that i changed it a second ago? :)
Comment has been collapsed.
16GB of RAM is good.
Don't stick with Haswell. Go with Skylake.
Comment has been collapsed.
Didn't see this until now. You mentioned future-proofing. As long as you aren't looking for an i7 Skylake prices are fine.

Hahaha I didn't even notice Intel processor and AMD board.

ow wow derp.... Needed a different CPU anyway just saw that u can't overclock it any suggestions?
Comment has been collapsed.
Just want it for faster load times and stuff a 980 really didn't look that much better for me
Comment has been collapsed.
I usually have 10+ games installed average 30 GBs each thats already 300 gb used another windows 10 is another 50 gb or something and then i will still need some for recording so i mean 480 GB looks like a lot but for me it doesn't xD
Comment has been collapsed.
Go with an EVO 850.
And since you want to both game and edit, 250GB might be a little less than you want.
Keep in mind, however, that prices on SSDs will continue to go down.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok looks like a good.
Yeh i know SSD prices are going thats why i also don't need a SSD right away whenever i get the PC i can still wait 6 months or something before i get the SSD so i can spends another 150$ on CPU etc
Comment has been collapsed.
Spend more on the CPU then and go with a 250GB SSD.

I don't have a case yet choosing parts first so..
I don't really care about the case either as long as everything stays cooled and it has a panel on the right side of it so i can look into it thats fine for me....
Also i didn't include the case into the 1000 euro budget
Comment has been collapsed.
You should include it. I recommend this. This baby is sitting right next to me and its perfect.

I don't understand the attraction of having a window to look inside your computer. The only moving parts are the fans. Nothing much going on in there which is visible to the eye. Seems a shame to pay extra for such vanity. I just built a system with this case. It's budget conscious and conservative. What under the hood is what matters not what others can see: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146078
Comment has been collapsed.
Just to look if everything is fine in there and if there is a problem its maybe faster to look through the window or something but yeh maybe its more of a showoff thing but i will see what i get for the case maybe i will just go for the cheapest one on the market for like 10$ xD
Comment has been collapsed.
Although a cheap case is alright for most builds I'd recommend spending a bit more on a roomy case than a cheap one if you are building it yourself. There is nothing more frustrating that fighting a case just to get all your parts installed. Also cable management can be a nightmare in cheaper cases.

And if you're willing to leave out the SSD for now altogether, you can definitely do 6600K + GTX 970 + Z170 motherboard + 16GB RAM.
Later you can get an M.2 SSD I suppose.
Comment has been collapsed.
Looks nice yeh i will leave the SSD for now but i really don't like the look of the motherboard... xD yeh im picky on that lol but is there anything that looks like the MSI MSI Gaming 970 Gaming AM3+ Motherboard has like the same specs as the one you choose?
And there already is 16 GB in that build :P
Also are u sure the cooler is good enough when i want to overclock the CPU?
Comment has been collapsed.
That motherboard is the barest Z170. I put it in there just to get the price down. That's my motherboard :p
I only don't like that it doesn't have 5.1 in the back. If I had been paying enough attention I woulda spent another $10 for the Pro and left the ProS alone.
In terms of motherboard looks for Skylake, try this Anandtech article: http://www.anandtech.com/show/9485/intel-skylake-z170-motherboards-asrock-asus-gigabyte-msi-ecs-evga-supermicro
Edit: Keep in mind that most of those boards are quite pricey. When you go to each set of motherboards on the manufacturer page, you wanna be nearer the bottom of the page rather than the top.
Also, I think you can see how the different boards look on pcpartpicker, so you can just get a list of all Z170s at prices for DE and try to take a look at the ones that aren't too pricey.
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't know anything about that cooler but you don't get a stock cooler with the 6600K. You're gonna wanna research for the best results for that.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeh think i will need to do some extra research on the motherboard and cooler
CPU looks great i read some articles and u can get it to 4.7 GHz overclocked
Still got 50 euro left so....
Thanks alot :) Whitelisted
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks. Just did my build around Black Friday and I'm satisified (i5-6500). I wish I had known about jet.com's desperate attempts to steal away Amazon customers as their 20% and 25% and so on discount codes (up to $50 on a single order) woulda definitely bumped me up to a 6600 (or even a 6600-K).
Coming from a Phenom II X2 I'm feeling good about it. Unless and until AMD catches up with Zen this coming fall (maybe), everyone with a Sandy Bridge i5 and later are all set for gaming for a good while.

Good service, build my own PC on that site & had it delivered 2 days later. Also tells you on the site if parts match or not.

Thanks nice website really like it but some prices are pretty high and i could probably save a lot whenever i ship in some parts
With this list http://de.pcpartpicker.com/p/tz7b7P
its almost the same without the SSD on alternate

You are in the Netherlands... May I suggest you try asking this on Tweakers.net or Hardware.info instead? They specialize in this and have better ways than a German partspicker to get a good list of parts. Plus I see a lot of questionable "help" here...but don't tell the rest ;)

Mhm ok i will ask there aswell you never know who to trust on the webs so.... I was just wondering maybe there are some people here who know alot about it so
Comment has been collapsed.
Mhm could be a option maybe buy 1 250 GB now and another 1 3 months later or something :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Don't even think the new ones are really worth it and they will probably be more expensive and probably won't fit in my budget....
Comment has been collapsed.
supposedly they will launch a new GPU to substitute de 970 so it shouldn't be more expensive but there is no way to know if the new architecture will be applied to every new GPU model, they could use only their new architecture on their new titan or 980TI.

If you're going for the DDR3 Ram, Amazon has a great deal on Corsair Vengeance which is the best DDR3 ram if you ask me.
Also go for Seasonic PSU, it's a lot more dependable than Aerocool.
Also as discussed before, it's an AMD Motherboard and you ask for an Intel CPU. I suggest you to either buy a FX 8350 (which would be my choice) or get a worse looking 1150 socketed Motherboard.
Also Sandisk is not really a reliable SSD, I suggest a Samsung one.

Yeh i noticed changed the description a second ago its fixed now DDR4 ram now aswell and a motherboard that works...

Ok thanks. I will try having a look around over there aswell :)

I just don't like AMD in general also the only reason why they are beating nvidia is because of DX12 the new Core support or something and i most games still support nvidia nstead of AMD and i like their futures alot more.
I can always change in the future if the difference becomes really big i will change to AMD but its still not that big of a difference some im not taking the risk.
Comment has been collapsed.
Um... no. Lol.
1- DX12 isn't even out yet for the most part.
2- DX12 would help the CPUs more than anything, "core support" doesn't exactly apply to GPUs...
3- Some games support AMD, some games support Nvidia. There's not much difference.
4- "Risk"? Really?
I'm going to try not to be overly offensive here, but you've obviously not done a lot of research on the matter, and you're pretty misinformed. DX12 would help AMD's CPUs for a lot of reasons. Namely because it will now favour more cores instead of lesser, more powerful ones, which it previously did. Which is what Nvidia has. This is largely due to the fact that the new consoles now have AMD APUs. And I said AMD is beating Nvidia at that price point because the R9 390, is quite simply, the better option. In-terms of price, performance and specs. Just like how the GTX 980ti beats AMD's equivalent this year.
By the way, I don't know if you are or not, but please never use GPUBoss for comparisons.
Comment has been collapsed.
Mhm okay i really don't know it now anymore xD So many choices aaahhh
And guess i'm misinformed yeh....
Guess i should ask somewhere else about the GPU a lot of friends really told me not to get a AMD GPU so...
Or could u maybe explain me something about it add me on steam so we don't have to spam everything here pls :)
Comment has been collapsed.
i have for the most part used AMD GPUs because their better performance/price ratio on the price i normally buy.
IMO the only thing nvidea has better is the "software" support, things like shadowplay are not so ease to use on the AMD counterparts, however in terms of FPS/IQ on games AMD is better on the lower prices.
Comment has been collapsed.
8 GB of RAM,
AMD card
intel i5 - for gaming / i7 - for photo and video editing
about 20-30% more W than your equipment would need.
Consider this:
Comment has been collapsed.
The HDD seems small, but you know how much you want. Otherwise, the list currently in the starting post is a good one. 6th gen Intel, the 970 is probably NVidia's only non-overpriced card, more than enough power (even a 500 W PSU could handle this rig), enough memory. Switch the GPU in mid-2017 to a DX12 one and you should be good at least until 2020.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ow derp fixed! hahaha 1 GB wouldn't even be enough for my phone lol
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah if you are going for an Intel CPU you need an aftermarket cooler because the intel stock coolers are quite bad. The cooler is really small and on top of bad performance they get dusty and noisy fast. The cooler I suggest is "Cooler Master Hyper 212" because everywhere online you look for a budget and good cooler that name keeps showing up and price for it is only 30 something. You can aswell look at different coolers in a different price range just make sure that you look at the dimensions of the cooler before buying because those fkers can be really big. I have an "Arctic freezer xtreme rev 2" which barely fits in my case by few milimeters :D
If you have any questions on cooling feel free to ask since I had overheating i5 760 and did allot of research on that :).

Yeh seems like a lot of u recommend that one so i added it and changed some stuff...

So i decided it is time to build a new PC because this PC is getting to old and its not worth upgrading it at all....
My budget is €1000 / $1086.
I don't know if there any PC building experts on this forum but i hope some people can help me with this i haven't build a PC since ages so i'm looking for some help..
I will be using this PC for Gaming, Recording, video editing and some basic stuff mainly running games at 1080p 60 fps
I want this PC to be future proof and easy to upgrade without having to change a lot whenever i want a better CPU or GPU or decide to overclock all of the sudden currently i also don't have a cooler because i really don't know what to choose....
If something would really increase my performance by a lot i could leave the SSD for what is for half a year and have another €150 to upgrade the motherboard or something else so.
The GPU will be a MSI Gtx 970 and the CPU must be from Intel for the other stuff i don't care about which brand or anything else so....
I haven't really looked into the prices to much i could probably gets some parts for less so thats why its over €1000
I probably need to change the PSU....
Quick note: I'm a real noob when it comes to building a pc so whenever i need to change something i probably have no clue what to choose xD
Thanks for the help in advance!
Here is some stuff i really want in it don't care about the other parts
CPU: Intel CPU all i care about
GPU: MSI GTX 970
RAM: 16 GB
HDD: 1 TB
Power Supply: 650W or 750W
This is what i have right now! (Yeh i know its missing a power supply)
