Please reply if you have an comments or tips. I want to use this PC for at least 1.5y before I upgrade anything.

I already have a mouse and keyboard so I won't need those. If you guys find any of these items on sale or on Craigslist/Ebay for cheap, I will pay for the product plus shipping (if it will be cheaper in total).

Nice! VERY close to what I have already in my current build. I am not very familiar with Gigabyte boards, however I have heard they have great products.

 

The CPU will rock your socks bro! For the money: it is absolutely the best proc money can buy right now :) The only thing I would recommend is going LOWER on the RAM...are you really going to have a need for 32GBs? I am running multiple applications right now and this thing never slows down. You could save a little money and go with 16GB...just a mere suggestion.

 

Other than that it look great!

Samsung SM951 512GB M.2-2280 these types of drives are having a hard time with installing Windows OS(Its new tech so it still has bugs that need to be worked out.). I recommend a Samsung Evo 512GB.

Thank you for the input A1C, but what do you mean by unprotected SSD?

Thank you PFC, the reason I have so much ram is due to the fact that I want a lot of wiggle room. I tend to multi-task so I do want any speed issues when it comes to calculations in my personal progs (I am a SWE) and other programs. Also I well start making my own videos and gfx so again that relates. Finally, I plan to have this build for at least 7 years so I don't want to "go low" now.

Thank you the most GEN Darmine. I have been doing a lot of research on building a computer that will not fall behind the standard of High End Machines in the next 7 years. I will do some more research on that SSD. It was the best value for space/quality so I look into the EVO.

The nice part about M.2 form-factor SSDs is that they're not bound by the SATA3 6Gbps bandwidth. Their bandwidth is much higher. PCIe and M.2 SSDs are the way to go as far as speed is concerned.

Yeah, I was researching that this SSD in particular is one that sets a bar for speed in the market as of late.

By unprotected I mean it doesn't have a hard shell to protect it against damage

I've had the Samsung 1TB 840 Evo since it came out and it has been outstanding. In the past I've had smaller size SSD's and they filled up way too fast. Get the biggest size you can afford. The SSD is IMO the 3rd most important component. RAM choices give you minimal performance boosts.

 

My rec: Buy the largest capacity SSD you can afford and get only the 16 gigs of RAM as suggested. RAID 0 is fine, but can be problematic. (If that is what you intended to do)
