This has been on my mind for a while now; what parts can I get that don't make too much of a difference when building a pc?
First the Motherboard:
People say, always get a pricey one, but the mid-range seem to do the job just fine.
Power Supply:
Everyone says you can fuck this up if you don't get your Pc + OC power + 20%. Even if you aren't going to OC.
Monitor:
This, I feel isnt discussed enough. It determines what GPU you want to use. So you can get a cheap one of these.
PSU:
Just getting the standard i5 6600k, i7 6700k seems to be enough for everything.
Storage:
IMO I think 1 SSD or M.2 is all you need.
RAM:
I feel this is just for aesthetics, all RAM that I've seen all have the same performance, just different looks for their prices.
Cooling:
Another aesthetics option.
Case:
I'd say this is more important than most would think. Sure you have the aesthetics, but there's more to consider. The space provided, the airflow, the optional fan inputs, the stability, where your access points are (is the restart button going to fuck you over).
GPU:
I'd say this is one of those parts you could always downgrade. Sure new GPU's come out every year with better specs than the previous. But so do the prices of the previous. Instead of getting that new 1080, you could settle for a r9 390 or a gtx 970, wait a year, and get the 1080 for the same price as the 2 above.
Have I triggered anyone yet?
