So after the GTX 1070 announcement I decided to buy it and go for a total system overhaul.
The components I've decided on so far are:
>CPU
Intel i5-6600
>GPU
GTX 1070
>RAM
16GB, don't know which one yet (any recommendations?)
>SSD
still looking around (any recommendations?)
>CPU cooler
also still looking around (any recommendations?)
>Mainboard
I'm gonna need your guys' help here. I'm pretty much ignorant when it comes to MBs. What should I get? I'm not into overclocking so some 80-100 dollar board would be fine by me.

Topkek, he can't into hyperthreading.
>GTX 1070
Have fun being inferior while Chad buys a 1080 and fucks your woman in front of you.
>16GB
Topkek, faggot. Real men go 32. But I forget, you're a cuck.
>SSD
>2016
>not storing your files on holographic fifth-dimensional hyperdisks
>CPU Cooler
>not going with two 480 rads per core
>mainboard
I'll bet this faggot won't even get LEDs on his board. Makes it go faster, cuckbag.
Fuck you.

>Chad has higher fps than you and fucks your woman
Its ogre
>>54709532
Uhm, okay...
>Intel i5-6600
6500 is better price:performance.
>GTX 1070
Wait for Polaris specs, coming in a week.
>16GB
You get the cheapest pair of 8GB sticks you can find.
>SSD
Samsung 850 EVO in whatever size fits your budget. 500GB is the cheapest per GB.
>HSF
You aren't overclocking, just get the CM 212.
>Mainboard
You aren't overclocking. Get whatever has the ports you need. If you don't know what ports you need then put all your parts into PCPartpicker, and sort by price. Let the compatibility filter do it for you.

>1070
polaris and the 1080 are going to cuck you
>>54709690
get fucked beta cuck

I don't need such a monster GPU for 1080p.
>>54710344
Don't listen to this retard.
Don't cheap out on the CPU ever also the rram make it at least 2400mhz memory, Skylake scales great with faster memory.
>>54714623
Would you say the i5-6600 is good enough?
And regarding RAM, is this okay?
Corsair Vengeance LPX DIMM Kit 2x8GB, DDR4-2400, CL14-16-16-31 (€68)
>>54714623
ever?
even for gaymen?
it's not a PSU, you only buy as much power as you need, and there's not much the CPU will bottleneck. A 6500 should be fine for that or really just about anything.
If he said AMD that would be different.
Although I do think it's odd you'd go 6500 and not full 6600, looking at the passmark page for power/price ratio I don't see that much of a difference.

Add a 1070 when it comes out.
>>54715885
Cool thank you! Though I'm gonna use my old case and PSU. The PSU is only 650W but that should be fine.
>>54715914
His build is fine, however I optimized the storage part a bit(while making it cheaper as well),
http://pcpartpicker.com/p/ZLcYcc
it's better to pick up the non m.2 850 evo it's cheaper and has the same speeds, also his HDD was 5200 rpm which is slow, so I picked an 7200rpm one from hitachi (which also has lower failure rates), gl on your new build
>>54714592
You don't even need a 1070. 480/480x for 200/250$ look insanely promising on leaked benchmarks (there was a thread this morning, like 480x beating a 980). 1070 will be slightly better for around 400$, so you're just a retarded piece of shit if you buy green in this scenario.
Also
>6600
Get the k or get the 6500/6400. Waste of cash otherwise

>WD
>Not waiting for zen
>Corsair
>Not waiting for polaris
Do you enjoy being a retard?
>>54718222
What's wrong with WD and Corsair?
>>54709481
>Not waiting for pascal and then upgrading to vega
i know that feel my gaming pc has been out of action for weeks but just do that build or something else like a xeon x99 and then pop a used 290 in there until something better comes out
>>54718258
far better alternatives exist
>>54718288
What do you suggest? Samsung? Seagate? Kingston?
>>54709481
>Ordering 1070/1080
>Implying you won't get cucked by NVIDIA again
>Implying they won't pull a memecard 2.0
Remember when the 970 was shilled as the 2nd coming of Jesus on /v/ and everywhere else and everyone blindly bought one?
Unless you're fucking retarded you wait before getting it.
>>54718310
Hard drives: Seagate
RAM: Gskill and Crucial

For MOBO's you can't go wrong with Gigabyte. A z97 should do.

Enjoy your 'reliable' hard drive.
>>54709481
>CPU
If going skylake you should probably spend the extra money on the I7 6600k for hyperthreading because it will futureproof your build when games start utilizing it.
>GPU
Might want to wait for AMD as their GPU's seem to be offering around the same level of performance at cheaper price (like usual)
>RAM
16gb is enough unless you are video editing a lot
>SSD
Samsung 850 EVO-Series 500GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
>CPU Cooler
Kraken X-61 for overclocking or Hydro 100i (Hyper 212 if you want something cheap and don't want to overclock) but then change CPU to I7 6700 (non k)
>Mainboard
MSI Z170A GAMING M5 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard (or Asus Z170-A if you want to go for something cheaper) there is also the Gigabyte GA-Z170X-Gaming 5.
>>54718430
Seagate is garbage, especially the Barracuda. I've owned two and they both failed on me within the first two years of use.
If using HDD then Western Digital Black for reliability.
>>54718486
sorry meant I7 6700k
>>54718430
"This" meme again
>>54711294
Polaris wont get near. They are mid ranged cards (basically a 390x but lower power usage)
You fucking pleb
>>54720330
polaris 10 will match the 1070 with less power consumption
>>54720346
big fat nope there
http://arstechnica.co.uk/gadgets/2016/04/amd-polaris-will-be-a-mainstream-gpu/
>>54709481
just buy the cheapest crucial ram you can get 16gb for about £55.
and a cryorig cooler would be a better option than a leaky AiO.
>>54720432
>implying the 1070 isn't
Retard im sure you still think it will be more powerful than a titan x even though the 1080 is barely more powerful
