Good build ?

[1lang-]

First build. Don't want to upgrade processor, but will upgrade graphics in next 3-4 years.
Want to play cs go,fortnite,far cry 5 and upcoming AAA games for next 3-4 years on medium settings at 720p. Well its a budget build though so not planned to buy SSD as its expensive. I know z series mobo will be good for (k) version processors but maybe in case if i want to upgrade it then i don't have to change mobo.

To be honest, if you are buying anything from the current generation you'd be hard pressed to call it a bad build. I am a little confused by your "swing for the fences" approach to CPU and Motherboard but not on the GPU when the GPU is going to be the most important factor in how your games run. That 1050Ti, while being a fine gaming card for 1080p titles is going to be a hard bottleneck on the capabilities of the system. For a more balanced build it might be better for you to drop the CPU to an i5 8400 and go up to a 1060 6GB.

So, while it is not a bad build, it isn't terribly balanced and you are over spending in some places for what is effectively "status" gear instead of focusing on getting the best performance per dollar. Also, get at least a boot SSD. You will really appreciate it.

This is an odd build. Whats the max budget?

Going for a 8700 but only a 1050ti is just odd.
Psu is on the lower quality and for the same money better can be had.
DO NOT GET THE MASTERBOX LITE CASES. These are basically closed boxes as they only have a tiny slit in the front for air intake and will make your pc overheat in at most 30min of gaming causing quite severe performance drops.
I hope the hdmi to vga convertor is active?
Do you really need a dvd drive? Also that terrible case does not have a place for a dvd drive.

So how about i5 8400 and msi gtx 1060 6gb with carbide spec 03 casing ?

I agree, get a lower chip. You could even consider ryzen as well. But the i5 8400 and GTX 1060 6gb should do fine.

That would be a great gaming machine. The CPU should last you years and shouldn't be a bottleneck for the next generation or two of graphics cards. I'd consider that a much more balanced PC than your original post.

i5 8400 + GTX 1060 6GB far far better than I7 8700K + GTX 1050 ti.
Never never spend more on the cpu than on the gpu.
