Solid PC to play

[segovia95]

Hello there. I'm not really into the science of hardware so I'm not an expert when it comes to building your own pc and picking its parts, so I've been reading what I could and this is what I've got. My idea is to be able to play anything at decent graphics with more than 60fps (Have a 23" 1080), which I think I can with this setup. The only thing that I'm not sure is about the mother, I don't know if it's good for the build or too mediocre for that CPU.

Any help will be appreciated!

it's fine, getting a 2x8gb kit is better than 2 stick of the same brand ram as the kit will undergo a test to ensure that they work together on a test bed.

cxm 550 is better than 500w +, the 500w model is a low quality unit.

Thanks for the quick answer! Besides the memories, would you change anything else? As I said I don't mind spending a little bit more for a better mother if it's not ideal for the setup, but I also don't want to pay extra if the performance won't change. I'm not planning on overclocking either, so no point in the most expensive ones.

nothing else that's performance related.

ssd/videocards/case are more personal choice.
