Try to ask in Audiophiles.

If you play CS:GO only then you can save more on the GPU, GTX950/RX460 is more than enough and focus more on the CPU part like getting an i7 instead of i5.

There's other games too but because my current setup can't play so I did not download other Steam games to try out lol.

If so then I suggest you to go for cheaper mobo like H170/B150, you don't need a Z170 when you aren't going to overclock the CPU.

Change to performance RAM to value RAM then dump all the remaining money in the GPU (GTX1060/RX480 at least)  nod.gif

I will look into it. No rush in getting them yet. Will slowly get item by item biggrin.gif no money
