Im a newbie at building a PC. Although I had some experience in replacing parts in prebuilt PC's, This will be the first time Im starting from scratch.
I will mainly use the PC for gaming and photo/video editing (Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator). I might be doing medium-heavy graphic works in high resolutions in the future.
I mainly play games like DA:Inquisition, Witcher 3, Overwatch, Fallout 4, Sims4 & Civ6.
I dont really care/want 60 fps (30-40 is good enough), Ultra settings (high is good enough), 4k resolution because Im just a casual gamer and I dont really play alot of FPS - except for overwatch.
Am I going to overclock? Idk how to, but maybe I will in the future.
I already have a build in mind but if you have a better suggestion/idea on which components to put then pls roast my planned build. (I dont even know if theyre all compatible). My budget is around 1.2. Absolute maximum is 1.5k.
CASE: CM K350
MBD:ASUS H170 PRO GAMING
CPU: i3-6100
GPU: Zotac GeForce GTX 1060 3GB
PSU: SEASONIC S12II 520W
RAM: KINGSTON PC3-1333 DDR3 (1x8GB)
SSD: Samsung 850 Evo 250GB
HDD: WD 1TB 72000rpm
----------------Estimated Price: 1,200--------------
I want this build to last for 3-5 years. Is that possible?
P.S. what is a good monitor nowadays? I always get stock monitors that comes with the prebuild PC's I bought.
