hey guys for this week's episode of hub builder will be picking parts for an enthusiast great gaming rig capable 1440p gameplay the budget has been set at twelve hundred dollars for all the core components so you'll need to allocate additional fuel units for audio display and peripherals as this is the hub part speaker guide I won't be benchmarking the system it's merely a build guide that said I do plan to create a hub builder video in a few weeks time where I'll build this exact system show you guys the process along with around the benchmarks so then let's get down to business the processor of choice is our best value option from the recent best value gaming cpu video which you can find here that option being the core i5 6600 k this six generation core processor is based on the current Intel Skylark architecture it's a quad core processor but unlike the more expensive by seven models lacks hyper threading support and drops the l3 cache size down from 8 megabytes to 6 megabytes if you can afford to spend more the core i7 6700 k is an option but for the vast majority of gamers there's virtually no performance game to be had the 6600 k can also be overclocked to make up any performance deficit since the 6600 k doesn't come with a block of aluminium with some spinning blades on top we need something that will allow us to overclock but also won't eat too much into the budget either the cooler master hyper 212 series has been a top pick for budget overclocking for well forever now it seems the current hyper 212 X model is very capable and been proven to keep the 6600 k at around 60 degrees under load when pushed to four point five gigahertz next we need to pick a motherboard obviously it needs to be LGA 1151 compatible and since we're going with an unlocked core i5 processor as every 170 board would be ideal prices start as low as 90 dollars though most models are priced over 100 given our budget we wanted something a little more capable in our own core i7 test rig we use the asrock fatality gaming zeb 170 gaming k 6 plus it's an awesome motherboard that packs loads of features it's also an excellent overclocker and more importantly overclocking is dead easy with this board priced at around two hundred dollars it's a nice option but not everyone's gonna requires rich feature set a good entry level board that has everything most users will need is the Kasich pluses little brother the gaming k for all the essentials are still included plus a few extras such as the killer land and I see 10 faves power ultra em to purity sound 3 jul pti three times 16 slots and the list goes on as was the case with the motherboard there are plenty of good memory options to pick from recent experiences the G skills try to Zed series in my custom liquid called Corp e3 gaming read that I built here swag my choice somewhat the Trident is there ddr4 3216 gigabyte kid is very cost effective you can save a bit of money and get a lower clock kit but we found three thousand-plus memories idea for skylight processes for the core p3 build i picked up the black and white tried and sad memory but for this build the black silver and red memory is much more fitting by far the most expensive component this build and most gaming bills for that matter is the graphics card since the budget allows for around four hundred US or 700 ozzy to be spent on the graphics card we went with the obvious choice the GeForce GTX 1017 I haven't locked down which 1070 model are featuring the hub builder version this video it'll likely be something cost-effective such as the gigabyte windforce or palla dual model for example although SSDs don't equal more frames per second I still strongly believe they're a vital bit of kit for what's now a relatively small price they significantly improve the PC experience with those glorious 0 millisecond access times we can get away with blowing a little bit of our budget here so we went with the crucial mx300 525 gigabyte model initially I plan to go the Kingston uv400 480 gig model and while this is a perfectly acceptable alternative that i do now highly rate in australia the pricing of the MX 300 series is now very competitive the 525 gig model provides plenty of room for all the essential software along with a couple of big triple-a titles as well still for the games and other important media you can't go without we suggest sticking in a WD blue 2 terabyte mechanical hard drive value for money the WD blue series is hard to beat nor though this is an old fashioned spinning disk it'll be plenty fast as the secondary storage device and of course the SSD will take care of all the lightning-fast stuff so now we need to pick a power supply to feed the beast you might be thinking in overclocked 66 okay along with the gtx 1070 or all the other bits would peak to require a high-capacity unit truth is this bill to be very efficient and rarely consumed more than 300 watts of power even with everything cranked up to the max our core i7 6700 kate sv clocked at 4.5 gigahertz along with an overclocked GTX 1080 never consumes more than 350 watts for example still it is nice to build a little Headroom in so we wanted at least a 500 watt capacity this means the seasonic 520 watt model from our best value power suppliers video which you can find here would be an option for this build though we feel the need to spend slightly more to get a power supply with the modular design the cooler master GM series g55 m's stood out as a nice choice and will match our case pic as well this is the modular power supply that features an excellent design great build quality and an impressive five-year warranty units also an 80 plus bronze certified and features a single 12 volt rail capable of delivering up to 42 amps a case I've been desperately trying to find an excuse to use this awesome looking cooler master master box 5 this surprisingly affordable mid tower really has going on the only issue here is trying to work out which color you want it in black or white once you solve that high class problem you later yourself Watson arguably the best put together sub one hundred dollar case in the market today overall these specs will make for a very drool-worthy PC capable of delivering very playable 1440p performance and all the latest titles dearly potential upgrade options here include the core i7 6700 k or geforce gtx 1080 short of that you'll pretty much have one of the best gaming machines money can buy if enough of you guys like this build I'll certainly go ahead and build it to show you exactly how it looks and performs what do you guys think of this build let me know in the comments i'm your host mad as always and i'll see you guys next time cheers guys for joining me for another
