Gaming Rig 1.5k

[Skyline34_]

Looking at a budget of 1.5k for CPU and a 27inch display (no need for kb/mouse)

I did a rough calc, no way to fit in a 1440p setup so looking at FHD instead. Looking at the below setup, need some recco for the brands

a simple H110 mobo + i3-6100
non-fanciful 8gb ddr4 ram
500gb SSD
GTX1060 / RX480
a 500W psu (shld be sufficient?)
simple casing
27inch FHD display (nt sure if can accom a 144hz , otherwise a regular 60hz will have to do)

thanks in advance

Cannot get 144hz for sure.

If u drop to 1080 60hz 24inch, u can fit in a 1070 possibly. Grab the i5. The difference is big between i3 and i5.

thanks mate, mind sharing which brand/model u got for the gtx1060?

i assume its either palit or zotac as that seems to be the popular ones in terms of price competitiveness

Palit.
Suggest you slowly observe prices then get during sales.
If one shot buy all confirm expensive
