[haidar7]

Greetings all

Here is my build, what is the recommended PSU for this build? I am going for 550W but not sure which company and which model..

Asus ROG Maximus VIII Hero
CPU: i5-6600 LGA 1151
GPU: msi GTX 960 2GB
RAM: Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB
HDD: 2X SeaGate 500GB
Optical: LiteOn 24X
PSU: ???

I am outdated when it comes to PC components. If u can modify my list with better parts, i will be thankful

My budget: 820$
Not looking to overclock

Also, what is the best website that i can purchase the parts from???

Million thanks in advance

EVGA G2 550w or Seasonic S12II 520w will do just fine for that build

Save yourself some $'s on the MB since OC'ing is not a consideration
ASRock B150 GAMING K4/HYPER LGA 1151 Intel B150 $91

Add more GPU horsepower with a GTX 1060
EVGA GeForce GTX 1060 SC GAMING, ACX 2.0 $200

Use this guide for PSU. Tier 2 or 3

Consider an SSD for your bootdrive and moving to 16gb of ram

Happy Building!

the 6600 is not worth the extra cash
get an ssd and an hdd, not two hdds(if you're thinkinng raid, forget about it. that was 10 years ago)
don't buy a 2gb GPU these days. also the 1060 is better by miles.

EVGA 750B2

A little extra power , but a great PSU.

After a long consideration, i chose Gigabyte GA-H110M-A motherboard

Since my low budget, and my focus on GPU, i had to go for this considering the price

Here is my build:
GA-H110M-A
EVGA GTX 1060 3GB
CPU i5-6500
PSU EVGA G2 550W

The remaining parts should not be a problem...

Do u think my build is good enough?? Good performance and little gaming ??? Surely no OC..

I am kinda skeptical on the MB. But i had no other choice really.

All good and that MB will be just fine. When not overclocking, the MB becomes more or less inconsequential as they do not influence performance: http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/msi-h110m-pro-d-lga-1151-micro-atx-motherboard,review-33661.html
