Budget Rig - New Advice

[hellrace]

Hi, not a hardcore gamer here but do occasionally enjoy CS GO etc. Nothing intensive.

Current AIO that i use mainly for movies and casual gaming is on its way out and thought i might as well build something better. Need some help to make sure this is workable. Not targetting much. Maybe 100+FPS on ultra settings for CS GO.

How does this look? Trying to keep entire build including 144hz monitor below $1500.

MOBO + CPU - Asus H170 Pro Gaming + I5 6500k - $493
RAM - G Skill Ripjaws 2400 DDR4 8 GB x 2
Samsung EVO 250 SSD (Bundled price with Ram $288)
GPU - ZOTAC 1060 6GB - $365
Tecware F3
Cooler Master 460 W (Bundled with case $73)

Total build so far is $1219. Getting a QNIX monitor for $200+.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

though the parts selections are good, but kinda wasted...as some parts are not fully utilize at some point (though u could get more performance but u cant squeeze that much)

Bought the parts and assembled before seeing your comment. No worries though, the part selection was mainly for future upgrade purposes.

Currently on the following:

Asus H170 Pro Gaming
I5-6500
Zotac 6GB Amp
120GB OCZ SSD
1TB HDD
Seasonic M12II Evo Bronze 620W
Tecware Titan
G Skill 2400 16gb

Some of the parts are overkill currently, but its for future upgrades. Intend to just buy a new MOBO and processor when the 7th gen prices stabilize.

Still need a 144Hz monitor though.

Around $1370.

Yup, did consider going for a 7th gen MOBO but current prices still insane. Now budget build lol. Which 7th gen MOBO would you recommend?
