how to remove threads?

 

[ModernWarfare]

this is all great. but. windows 8.1 is really a bad choice as it has a problem with mouse precision being too slow for the games you seem to play which is fps. i would highly recommend windows 10 as its new has directx 12 support and mouse precision is spot on and good for future updates and games to come. also i would also recommend a 144hz monitor for game tearing while moving the mouse so when you have v-sync on its way better than a 60hz. about the keyboard im not really sure because its rare to find what you're talking about. and you also need one cpu cooler for one build.

Maybe I missed something, what CPU are you going to purchase?

Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor : cpu

There are a few 'compact' keyboards available with the arrow keys set closer to the alphanumerics, if that would help.

I have been on Part picker struggling a bit,

I need a pc build that will run multiplayer games such as ( cs-go, battlefield, black ops, Tom Clancy, ect)

This is the parts i have chosen :

Noctua NH-D14 65.0 CFM : CPU Cooler
ASRock Fatal1ty Z170 Professional Gaming i7 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard: Motherboard
G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2400 : Memory
Seagate Barracuda ES 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive: Internal Hard Drive
EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB Founders Edition : Video Card
NZXT S340 (Black) ATX Mid Tower : Case
FSP Group Hydro G 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX : Power Supply
Microsoft Windows 8.1 OEM 64-bit : operating system
BenQ RL2755HM 27.0" 60Hz : Monitor

Need a keyboard but I am left handed I dont use WASD when playing, i have seen on most keyboards the arrows on right are spaced out from other keys this will be an issue for me, what would you suggest? would i need two of the cpu cooler or just one?

Fantastic system. Here are some things you can change:
1: If you can choose a gtx 1080 that has a custom fan(s) (Such as Gigabyte, MSI, EVGA and Zotac) then you will get better performance and better temperatures. Besides, they look better in my opinion. But a founders edition is just a reference model. Its overpriced and stinks in cooling and performance compared to the custom cards.
2: You have a great power supply choice. But some tier one power supply's are available at a cheaper price and are equally great if not better than the hydro g. Here is some choices that are a tad cheaper but are still in the same quality power supply of your's: (Best out of all of my choices) https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-SuperNOVA-PLATINUM-Crossfire-Warranty/dp/B010HWDP48/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469216822&sr=1-3&keywords=supernova+ps

3: Get Windows 10, Windows 8/8.1 sucks in performance and doesn't have direct X 12.
4: I'd stay away from seagate if i were you. They have low quality hard drives. Get a western digital hard drive ( https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Cache-Desktop-Drive-WD10EZEX/dp/B0088PUEPK/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469217445&sr=1-1&keywords=hdd ) or get a High performance Western digital WD BLACK ( https://www.amazon.com/Black-Performance-Desktop-Hard-Drive/dp/B00FJRS6FU/ref=sr_1_6?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469217445&sr=1-6&keywords=hdd ) Hard drive.
5: You getting a gtx 1080. Dont limit yourself to 1080p, 60hz. Get either a 144hz 1080p monitor (By the way the gtx 1080 is supports to have monitors like this.) for $30 more ( https://www.amazon.com/AOC-G2770PQU-Ultimate-Performance-Professional/dp/B00L8LTB3W/ref=sr_1_17?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469217651&sr=1-17&keywords=144hz+monitor ) or get this monitor for 1440p gaming (4ms response time but its not crazy noticeable.) ( https://www.amazon.com/Acer-G257HU-smidpx-25-Inch-Widescreen/dp/B00QS0AKVK/ref=sr_1_5?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469217878&sr=1-5&refinements=p_n_feature_keywords_two_browse-bin%3A6570749011 )
6 (Optional): If you do overclock, keep that cpu. But if you dont't, You should just get the i7-6700 as it's cheaper ( https://www.amazon.com/Intel-I7-6700-FC-LGA14C-Processor-BX80662I76700/dp/B0136JONG8/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469218267&sr=1-3&keywords=i7+6700 )

That's all! The rest is good or couldn't find any deal better! Cheers!

(P.S. The Adesso SlimTouch 120 is a great keyboard for your situation.)

I agree with most answers, but I suggest you stick with the 6700k. If you don't overclock, then, well, just learn to overclock.
And I strongly support the idea of a better monitor, the 144hz 1080p one is a great idea for your games, and it would really benefit from the strong gpu and overclocked cpu.

Lastly, but also very important: Get an SSD. I'd recommend a 500gb Samsung 850 Evo as a first choice, but there might be better options.

SSD is a good choice. Forgot to put it in. All she need's is a 80gb ssd or lower. She could just put the drivers and OS on the ssd then put the games, downloads, ext on the hdd.

Here's the best deal on ssd's at the moment. Very cheap but great quality: https://www.amazon.com/PNY-CS1311-120GB-Internal-Solid/dp/B019H3B3P6/ref=sr_1_16?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1469219579&sr=1-16

Also i wouldn't recommend any raid configuration's. Just forward all your downloads and such to the FORMATTED hdd. Make it like a 1 tb passport.

 

[anbello262]

I don't really agree. I believe that for an SSD, the minimun would be 250GB, while the sweet spot is 500GB. Especially for such a high end PC.
Any less and you have to manage your space a lot more, and you can't install anything. The SSD is great for the OS, but having some main games and programs there is also really good, while it is not so expensive, given the rest of the build.


A 500GB SSD goes from $110 to $140, while a 250GB is around $80, so I don't think it's a good idea to go smaller.

Sorry for not replying sooner. That's a great setup. Choose that. That will get you the best performance. That's about equal to my recommendation, except better. So yes, if you can afford that, then get it.

For gaming, I would go with an i5 6600K and use the money saved to buy a 250GB SSD to use as a boot drive.
