Ello
Looking to build a new desktop to blow my current one away if at all possible.

Budget would be 1k, would realistically like to stay around 800 if at all possible.
Do not need monitor / keyboard / mouse or SDD, as I will be bringing these over from my current PC to the new build.

Game played mostly would be WoW and maybe GTA 5.


Current Build:
AMD FX-8320 (CPU)
ASUS 970 Pro-Gaming Aura (MOBO)
AMD Rx-470 (4gb)
16GB DDR3 RAM (Corsair)
Samsung 250GB SSD (x2)



Budget:
More specific use (what games, what programs): WoW / GTA 5 / FF14
Planned time until purchase: 2 Months @ most
Do you need an Operating System?: No
Do you have any specific preferred components?: I3-8350k or i5-8600k
Do you need a sound or wireless card?: Sound
Do you want stock cooling or do you plan on overclocking?: Overclocking
Do you need a monitor? mouse? keyboard?: No
Zip code/location? (Shipping costs): US



I'm looking to go back to Intel, and was sniffing around the I3-8350k or the i5-8600k and at least a 1060 6GB.
It's been rather difficult trying to find a good build including those items around my budget.


Any help and/or opinions would be greatly appreciated!

(Going for either a Blue/White or Green/White themed)

You will have to install Windows again on the SSD, for decent operation.

Idk what's up with you lately.
I always expect a build 2x the budget ;)

Gj, exactly what I would have picked here.
Extra $10 on 3000 mhz corsair lpx kit tho

What do you think of this?

My apologies I forgot to mention I was just going to re-use my current PSU EVGA - 80 PLUS 600W ATX 12V/EPS 12V Power Supply.

I also will re-use my current watercooler which is the Corsair H55, I just put that on here to check compatibility.

Well, the 8600K would go with the GTX 1070 a lot better.
