Hallo friends I need help creating a fairly good config for my very good mate centered around the 6600k CPU.

He already has a monitor, keyboard,mouse, OS and sound system so those are not needed and he will be using my old GPU, an R9 290 Tri-X.

So what we really need is: MoBo, SSD, RAM, PSU, good cooler for the CPU and a case that has enough room for the R9 290 and has really good airflow.

The budget at this point is not set in stone we just want to know our options but don't go overboard like 512GB SSD is not needed for example. Can buy the parts either here in Germany or in Hungary, Thanks in advance!

Here is a nice build for your friend. It includes your i5-6600k and R9 290.

If you want to OC lightly, it will be fine. (600 mhz, etc.) anything higher I would recommend a NH-D14

P.S. The Cryorig H7 is out of stock in his area guys.
