Hello there,
I just build a PC few days ago
Consisting following component

Processor - i5 8500

Mobo- Asus prime Z370

RAM- Corsair Vengeance 8GB 2400

GPU- Asus strix Gtx 960(had it in my previous build so used it will upgrade it in few days to 1070)

PSU- Corsair CX 650

SSD- WD 128b

2tb HDD

Is this a ok build? How is this for 2108?
Thanks in Advance :)

The GTX 960 has its limits, it will handle FullHD at medium at best, and only for simpler games. The 1070 will rock for FullHD, and at even higher (QHD) it is quite ok.
8GB Ram is not enough for newer games any more, but check the requirements for the games you like before sinking that money.

The b360 boards are about to launch and will be cheaper than the z370. You are buying a non overclockable cpu so no point in getting a z370 really. Also a 128gb ssd is simply too small for anything and will fill up in no time even when trying to keep it empty.
