Helping friend build his first pc, parts are as followed:

EVGA GEFORCE GTX 1060 6GB
600W PSU
G.SKILL RIPJAWS 8GB (2X4)
MSI Z170-A PRO LGA 1151
INTEL CORE I5-7500 LGA 1151
 
No reason for a z series board and a non overclockable processor

You need a 2** (b250 h270 z270)series Board to natively support that CPU.

What 600w PSU.

Mind just listing a budget so someone can help iron your issues out and help either increase performance or save a few bucks
 


$1400 CAD max.

- EVGA 600W B1 100-B1-0600-KR (power supply)
- No need for overclocking, friend is fine with base performance
- Whats wrong with z series? I was under the assumption that Z series was preferred for gaming build, we found a good price for one.
