[♪~ ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ]

My mobo: ASUS P8H61-M LX3 R2.0

I wanted the followings:

https://www.amazon.com/Intel-Skylake...DQQ36EBX1&th=1

Good match? Also Im broke so I can't really afford a CPU cooler (considering that I have to buy a PSU too), so is there any problem if I don't get the cooler too?

Lol, if you don't have a CPU fan good luck.

[Fliest_aladdin]

Well i'm broke too and want to upgrade

If he doesn't overclock stock coolers will do the job until he can get an aftermarket one.

Lol the thing is that the CPU in the link, does not include a cpu cooler :P

Oh rip didn't look close enough.

emm, the cpu with the cooler is cheaper

and then the retail version is $200, which includes the stock cooler, Dont know why you are looking at the OEM version of the cpu

he cant overclock the i5-6500, its not the unlocked version (unlocked version have a k at the end (15-6600k)), so there is no need to get an aftermarket one

oh tbh I didn't explore all the options in there, nice to see that
What'cha think about the specs tho?

[Officialhitman]

Just get the one with the cooler unless you want to buy cooler. Without cooler computer will crash every like 5 seconds for CPU overheating lmao. Also if you do want to overclock a non "k" series it's possible you just gotta have the right mother board.

[Alfie Solomons]

Cooler is a must bro!, you can get one with a cooler!.

the 6500 will run just fine with the 1060, you will be able to play most games on the highest settings at 1080p at 60fps

that's 200$

i'll save an extra 40$ and get the 6600k
much better + unlocked processor and higher clock speed and some times it compute with i7 6700k

for the GPU it's great

[ChavitaHD]

Get both and refund them from amazon, haha.

On the real shit thou, both are more than perfect!

[zrozjgqz@]

I would not get the CPU cooler. The stock coolers are usually good enough and if you actually need a better cooler in the future you can always buy it later.

[Eternity]

Dude don't listen to this chumps. Get a dryer much better for you cpu.
