Not sure what I'll need in particular, the i7 was in from the start but like I said, not sure, worth it? Not worth it?
Either way, would love some opinions.
the first one is not good, the second one is terrible. you dont need an i7, its a waste if you are just gaming
Ok, thanks for the input. The CPU cooler wasn't in there to start with as the CPU comes with an inbuilt one
if you are deaf and live in the antarctis, the standart cpu cooler is absolutely fine. jokes aside, get a better one. ALWAYS
Are SSDs really that necessary?
there is NOTHING which makes a PC as fast as a ssd. everything is much smoother!
Again, power supplies, all I can tell is wattage wise and I don't know what a safe ratio is, aka, how much higher the wattage should be in relation to the estimate, as the second build shows the estimate around 280w but the unit there delivers 450w. Problem? No problem?
well, a build with a rx 480 or 1060 should not use more than 450 watts, so 550 watts is the absolute maximum of what you should get. the more important thing are the protection techniques
and yes, get the carrot upgrade, lettuce is so 2015!
actually, use the build by planet smasher (although i would exchange the be quiet 9 for a 10 (better protection, good for future gpu upgrades) and the i5 6500, not the 6600)
you could exchange the 1060 for the msi rx480 custom, reasons are already stated in this thread
