3200mhz will only run at 2666 on b360 boards.. u need Z board to run higher then 2666.. doesnt matter tho, unless u can find a better deal with lower cl

anyway nice build.. would allways take a nvidia over amd gpu tho.. probably a 1660ti in this case

Everyone has recommended the 580 so far, any reason why you think the 1660ti is a better choice?

it's faster, much more recent, but also costs $100 more. I guess he means go over your budget and yolo if u can, but ur light gaming so it doesn't really matter. Better to just wait til u actually need it, and buy something even more new when and if the time comes

yea i see people recommending amd gpus now... not sure why tho.. probably just amd fans or they dont like nvidia anymore.... imo nvidia been kinda lame lately but i still think their gpus is a better choice



wasnt the budget 1k? 900$ build he made + 100$ = quick maffs

Taxes? / shipping?

lol what? has nothing to do with being a fan, we give builds based on what's best for OP and his appropriate budget. He is playing Poe/Csgo, he doesnt need 1660ti, 580 is still way overkill for it. If he ever expands his game to something more demanding in the future, and 580 isnt enough to handle it, he can buy 3660ti or some shit in the next few years.

also thanks for the quick math lesson, time to move onto variables and apply it for next class.
