See anything wrong? I haven't built a proper computer in years. I know it's sort of modest but the only thing I see myself upgrading is the RAM capacity and my existing video card (GTX 960)
Is it worth throwing money at a Meme.2 SSD?
>>55141427
bueller?
>>55141427
You forgot the case anon.
>>55141427
Whats your current setup
>>55141563
old as fuck Xeon X3440
16GB DDR3 1333 ECC
DH57tm mobo
EVGA GTX 960 2GB FTW
Corsair 500w something
>>55141603
forgot to add I need to keep the old PC in one piece, the only things I'm moving over are the mechanical HDDs and the GTX 960
>>55141603
Why the fuck do you have a water cooler
>>55141540
I already bought a Phanteks P400 on sale for $55, that thing is gaudy as fuck
>>55141651
aesthetics and quietness? I thought the skylake processors didn't come with coolers or something
>>55141668
They do
Updated!
That RAM will work even though it's a B150 mobo right?
>>55141777
my frend do urself a favor n buy a z170 motherboard instead so u can blck overclock for dem gains.
>>55141777
Yes the RAM will be fine but that motherboard only supports DDR4 2133MHz so it will down clock from 2400MHz
>>55141777
SSD is too small even with mechanical storage

If OP wanted a shitty PSU he'd buy direct from HEC

if you can throw in an extra $20 for 2x the capacity and superior MLC read/write speeds.

>80 more watts

retard. how is it shitty
>>55141808
I don't want to OC, I need stability
>>55141827
It's actually cheaper than 2133 interestingly enough, so that's no big deal

>ASRock
Are you trolling me?

Okay now I know you're trolling me

The SSD is just for boot, I have a secondary 480GB SATA3 for games and stuff. I just decided I'm going to move my mechanical drives to my NAS.
>>55141540
How often are you going to post this?
>>55142057
EVGA make great power supplies, they also come with a 5 year warranty and an amazing customer service team.
AsRock offer the best value for money motherboards available. They usually offer the same components are motherboards $40-50 more expensive.
>>55141427
M2 SSD is only worth it if you're getting something like the Samsung 950 Pro. Otherwise you won't be making use of the available bandwidth and just paying extra for form factor.
>>55142057
>muh stability
looks like you're intentionally trying to gimp your setup considering you can overclock that 6400 to 4.4-4.5 and its dam stable. good luck with your bottleneck 3.3 boostclock especially if you decide to upgrade your video card in the near future.
>buying a motherboard that'll gimp your 2400 ram kit
kek.
>refurbished
*quality tested
Should I just wait for Kaby Lake then? By then I should have ~$1200 to throw at a system.
Say I wanted to do 2-way SLI or Crossfire at some point, would a 750w PSU be too much?
>>55141777
I was going to say anon. Get new RAM but you got it. Looks like it will run stuff alright.
>>55142077
please respond
>>55142265
if you can't get a 6700k or x99 with a 6800k then its best to not wait for kaby, but for amd's zen instead.
6700k / 6800k are the only two worth it processors if you build now.
>>55142348
>>55142398
Thanks guys, I'll gimp along with what I've got until Zen comes out I guess.
>>55141777
Get the i3-6100, it's actually faster than the i5-6400 for some stupid reason.

>>55142455
That's a fucking dual core bro
>>55142101
EVGA's good PSUs are the SuperNOVA G2/P2 series because they use Superflower's Leadex platform and are some of the best you can buy. Their cheap B series aren't great.
>>55141427
if you're nutting up for a Samsung 950 or a jewtel 750 yeah m.2 is going to be bitching fast
>>55144054
And yet in anything that's not akin to rendering x264 video, it's better.
You got trolled on Skylakes don't come with coolers. At least my 6700k didn't.
