they are used but the guy tested them for me and they look brand new no problems what so ever
CreepDragon :
btw the motherboard is not the z170m its the z170 one
Corrected it, thanks.
Well, if they are all working properly and have no problem whatsoever that's a great thing. Can he also give you any warranty on them?
If yes, i'd say it's a nice deal to go with. As you would pay some considerably more money if went all brand-new pieces.
Just make double-sure in every single piece and you'll be good-to-go
imho you should at least consider that a brand new up-to-date Kaby Lake setup will cost you about 100 bucks more.
Then you could decide if the risk to go for used parts in the core of your new rig is worth.
and also 100 $ IS NOT nothing i'm from romania and here the import taxes are really big in america you are getting a gtx 1080 for around 590$ here the cheapest one is 830$

I know how you feel,
Where i live we have the same(or more) abusive taxes, the 1080 here is about $1000 😛
Go for it, if everything's okay will won't regret a bit.
