So I want to build a gaming PC but I know basically nothing about building them. I used PC Part Picker to throw together a set-up. I want a computer that is great for gaming but at the best possible price.
Please let me know if any of these parts:
1. Are not compatible with each other
2. Could be replaced with something better for around the same price
3. Or are unnecessary and can be replaced with something much cheaper
CPU: Intel - Core i7-8700K 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor // $369.99

Memory: G.Skill - Aegis 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory // $92.99 x2

Notice the "x2" after $92.99.

If you are planning on using multiple kits, memory manufacturers won't guarantee such combinations will work together or how they will work if the PC does boot up. What is guaranteed is use of a single kit.
 
You don't want a 1050ti with a 8700k. It's too unbalanced. You'll have to cut settings to hit 60fps in some games.
