Sanity check on build

    Hey.


    I am doing a build for my friend. He was hoping to keep it to about €500ish. We already have a "GeForce GTX 970 4GB" so this will be used here:

    All in this is about €550 from Amazon.


    Any opinions on this?
    Does it look sane?

    Seems fine to me. Could probably save a good few quid by getting a cheaper board like a H310 if he doesn't need the features of the Z370 but all in all, seems solid.

    Cheers.


    For the H310, do you mean micro ATX?

    Not necessarily but if so, sure. Matx makes no difference, unless you actually need additional expansion options like pci-e 1 or 4x (most people don't need anything other than a GPU)
