Hey guys!
I've been out of the PC building game for 10 years and wanted some help sanity checking my currently proposed rig below. My budget is £1500, which the proposal approximately fits.
My main aim (currently) is to play FPS such as Player Unknown's BattleGrounds to a fairly high (but not top level) standard.
I have four main questions about the below rig:
1) Have I chosen anything that is technically incompatible with any other component?
2) Can I make significant savings on any component by downgrading to something marginally worse?
3) Is there a better alternative to any component?
4) Have a missed anything out (deliberately omitted DVD Drive, so Windows will be installed by USB Pen)
The Rig:
Peripherals
Monitor - Asus VG248QE - £232.98
Keyboard - Cooler Master MasterKeys Pro L White - £77.00
Mouse - Cooler Master Xornet II - £14
Headset - HyperX Cloud Revolver - £58
Core
Case - Fractal Design Define R5 - £89
Motherboard - Asus Strix Z270F Gaming - £170
CPU - Intel Core i7-770K - £323
Graphics Card - Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 GB - £272
RAM - 16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000 MHZ DDR4 (2x8GB) - £130
SSD - Crucial MX300 275GB x 2 - £172
Cooling Unit - ARCTIC Liquid Freezer 120 - £63
PSU - EVGA SuperNova GS 550W - £80
OS - Windows 10 32/64-Bit - USB Pen Drive - Retail (KW9-00017) - £104
Case Fans - 2x Corsair SP120 Quiet Edition - £30
Total £1,512.98
Any thoughts on the above very gratefully received.
