Budget for?
need your feedback (pc build)

- Start date
The board will support 2400MHz memory but some sticks may only run at 2133MHz. However 2400MHz sticks are cheaper than 2133MHz sets and will run at 2133MHz even if they're not stable at 2400MHz so:
Cheapest sticks - i've listed 8Gb and 16Gb sets.
My basket at Overclockers UK:

My basket at Overclockers UK:
- 1 x Team Group Vulcan T-Force 8GB (2x4GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C14 2400MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey (TLGD48G2400= £64.99
- 1 x Team Group Vulcan T-Force 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C14 2400MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey (TLGD416G24= £109.99
Only if it's listed on the 'Memory Support List' which guarantees it running at 2400MHz with 7th generation CPUs.
Plus, there's a reasonable chance the above memory will run at 2400MHz if set manually - or via the XMP if your lucky - running alongside a Kaby Lake derived CPU.
But as you were on a tight budget already and you've now had to find another £65 minimum extra- i wouldn't be too concerned about guaranteeing an extra 267Mhz, unless you want to?

Yep, it's good value memory.
OcUK use higher MHz sticks in a lot of their Ryzen builds.
You should be fine - what spec model is your PSU?
And, fortunately the GTX 1060 has limited power demands compared to its AMD equivalent.
You'll be fine - no extra cables needed for the PSU.
What outputs are on your monitor and what cable do you use with your present GFX card?
well my monitor is vga but i have adapter that have been included to my gpu which look similiar to vga but bigger.
my windows 7 is fresh, just been instaled. will i have to do new instalation or it will adjust to new components? is it recomended to get win 10 ?

Does it look like this?
You will need to do a fresh install due to the motherboard change - but no need to upgrade to Windows 10 unless you want to?

If you have it already, then yes use it.
What is the name and model of the GTX 1060 that you've ordered?
I also need the name and model of your monitor.
