I have all other components ready to build a PC. All I need is a motherboard (not K overclockable hence the gaming/hyper with an external BCLCK engine), CPU (i3 6100) and GPU (RX 480 Red Devil for a great price).
My budget for these three parts is $450. I think I found some good parts for that budget and I would like some opinions below. Also, some first PC builder tips would be great!

Hi Guy2346,

Remember you'll need DDR4 RAM if you don't already have it.

The GTX 1060 is a bit more powerful for the price, and much cooler, quieter and more power efficient.

That said, I'd do something like this:

If you can't fit a microATX board in your case, go with the full ATX model.
