8 core build

[Matthew_267]

I am wondering if this is possible

I need at least an 8 core cpu due to multiple virtual machines

I will also be playing some light games that a gtx 1060 would cope with

I currently have a z97 motherboard

My colour scheme is red white and black

The budget is around £700

I do not need storage

No CPU is 8 core with that MB, sell it
Assume you have the 1060 already.

Thanks

I am going to wait and see if there any any Black Friday deals before I buy them

Cool, I just don't know when the rog ryzen deal will last. It is worth 100+ already for the two AAA games.

I also have another question

Is there a gpu configuration that can output 4K in most AAA games. This is for a friends build

Thanks again

1060 can not handle 4k, but it can play 4k movies... You need at least 1080 to do 4k gaming
