Need some help and advice from the Sifu here.

It is time to fix another PC, have a Seasonic M620W and GTX750Ti-2GB which I might use back as upgraded less than 2 yrs ago.
Wish to buy everything from SLS. Price is ref from PCT and Tradepac.

MSI B150M Bazooka Plus + i5 6500 = $405
Kingston PC4 2133 8GB = $50 (so these day still any advantages running in dual channel 4GB x 2?)
Sandisk Plus SSD 240GB = $95
Toshiba 1TB HDD = $56
Zotac GTX 1060 3GB = $325 (is the 3GB good enough for a 23” FHD monitor)
Seasonic M12II 520W = $99 (is this sufficient for a GTX1060)
Sharkoon GD7000 = $99
Window 10 Home = $158 (this is so expensive now)
Total = <$1300.

Saw the GTX 960 2GB selling at $199. Is it a very good buy and what are the performance difference between the 750Ti < 960 < 1060(3GB).

Please enlighten me or any better suggestion for the above components which are more value for money?

Comex is around the corner must go and hunt for some bargain.

Thanks.

well really depends on what games you are playing though, if u can reuse your GPU and PSU, why not?

and if u want to go low, just get GTX 960 even though it cost abit less for a better GPU like 1060 (3GB.)

well i have seen a few reviewers shown some results that dual channel some time give some increase in speed but its insignificant, since single channel still can give u what dual channel do.

next for your keys maybe u can get it from reddit to further reduce the cost.

as for GTX 1060 max TDP is only 120W so with your 620W also enough, next its more than enough for 1080p.

How much does it will cost ?

The cheapest GTX1060 6GB model is Zotac GTX1060 AMP 6GB which cost $429. Price taken from cybermind so the price increase is around $100. If buy from Q10 with like $100 coupon the price difference would be lesser.
