New build (Is this an alright one)

[Charion]

What is up guys,

I'm wondering if this is a good PC:

Intel Core i7-6800K, Hexa Core, 3.40GHz
MSI X99A RAIDER, X99
Kingston HyperX Savage Memory Black DDR4 2x8GB, 3000MHz
Internal HDD Seagate BarraCuda Pro 3.5'' 2TB SATA3 7200RPM 128MB
SanDisk Plus SSD 240GB SATA3
MSI GeForce GTX 1070 OC, 8GB GDDR5
Chieftec ATX PSU A-80 series CTG-750C, 750W
DRW
Corsair computer case Carbide Series™ SPEC-01 RED LED Mid Tower Gaming

Yes thats very good

[Charion]

Yes thats very good

I was considering to go with 8GB 1080, but that would add on top of the price the PC is now, also, my current PC is cheaper, around 890 euros, and it starts to fail on me, and hard.

You could go for a LGA 1151 based I7, the IPC would be faster and may actually perform better in games than the X99 based CPU's. And with the money you save you could upgrade to a GTX 1080

Money saving won't be a problem, since I'll be getting the PC with a Payment by installments, and to me it's bit easier than saving tbh, I was also planning to get a new monitor (144hz) as an add-on since I play CS: GO competitively, even more, so an ESEA.

Sent in a request with the 7700k - quad core 4.20, 16GB, GTX 1080 8GB...

beDon't know how useful the 16GB will be and the 8GB vRam will be, but I wanna play games on ultra settings, and stuff, without lagging massively.

You're underestimating the power of modern day CPU and GPUs lol. If you're just playing CS:GO I would advise you to go with Ryzen since it'll max out the FPS anyways, but the extra cores and threads = longevity. Also 8 GB of VRAM is aplenty. Most games don't use more than 8GB of RAM, but if you want to have multiple things open at once, then go with 16.

I recommend going the Ryzen R5 1700 way, as it will be utilized more in the near future.

The CS: GO comment was about the monitor not about CPU...

You literally misunderstood without actually paying attention, thanks for your suggestion, but perhaps read next time.

Oh please, there are plenty of games that require more than 4GB of vRam if you want to run it maxed out.

[minemcraft]

very expensive

Expensive, but would run basically any game...

My current PC runs any game as well, but whenever I want to max out on the graphic settings then the frames are taking a massive doll while playing, and that's is the why I also make a new computere...

Plus, the current computer has started to fail on me for some reason, because every time I try to run an application I get a damn blue screen, I don't know if it's a faulty Windows 10, or faulty SSD (which I think it should be the fault Windows 10), also it just doesn't happen with the applications, it also sometimes happens with the games..

The add-on for the new build is that the new set of monitors, so I would be able to have more actual frames, I do get 300 FPS in CS:GO, but my monitor is not actually showing them.

if you wanna use the the 144hz monitor to its full extent then id rather go for an 7700k and spend the extra money on a 1080 or even 1080ti

and for monitors there are some pretty good ones coming out from asus lately imo
