Hey!
I've very recently decided to build my own PC for the very first time, as I'm currently using a laptop that's not doing super well. This will be a gaming PC, so I want it to handle most games pretty well. Note that I don't have any experience with overclocking and haven't planned on dabbling with that anytime soon. Other than that I just want a build that's overall decent. I live in Norway, so I'm looking at parts provided by local electronic stores (Primarily used www.komplett.no to browse so far). Import tax and shipping is mostly guaranteed to negate any savings I'd find on international sites.
So far I've made a first pass of all the components I need. However, I have no idea if all the parts are compatible with each other, or if there are more suitable options for me. My shopping list so far looks like this:
CPU:
AMD Ryzen 5 1600
Graphics card:
MSI GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Gaming X
RAM:
Corsair Vengeance LPX DDR4 2666MHz 8GB
Motherboard:
ASUS Prime H310M-D, Socket-1151
PSU:
EVGA BQ 650W Hybrid Modular 80+ PSU
SSD:
Kingston SSDNow UV400 480GB 2.5" SSD OEM
Chassi:
Corsair Carbide Clear 400C Midi Tower
If there are any glaring mistakes or improvements I should make in order to improve this build, I'd love to hear it.
I've made myself an estimated budget of 1400-1500 USD, and with the prices of the local webshop I'm just over 1400 USD right now. If there's any more info that would make it easier to help me, please let me know!
