can fit, the B150i Gaming Pro is a mini ITX board, which definite fits in a mini ITX chassis like the Evolv ITX

6600 is a higher clocked 6400 by about 600MHz (2.7GHz vs 3.3GHz). Might have some small performance benefit in some apps but in gaming not much difference. So just go for cheaper one.

I think i5 6500 is more value for money.....
6400 only 2.7GHz, 6500 is 3.2GHz..... only about $20 more.....

Her room very small. No fan inside only aircon usually on at night.
She might increase her budget to get AIO cooler instead I guess. Since she want it to be as silence as possible. Amazon EVGA GTX 970 hybrid should do the job. Only scare her casing no place put!

AIO uses fan to exhaust heat out of the radiator. In the end, buying a air cooler and AIO is no different.

I've a update!
This friend of mine just bought this EK predator 360 with GPU block. Which means I dont think it gonna fit into her casing.

ALSO! She doesnt know how to fit / assemble it (I also have no idea how to) and dont want to risk. Anyone can suggest a shop for her to do so?

PS: she bought the EK predator without me knowing so arrival date 3 FEB : GG
