Hey all,
I've been putting together a build on PC Part Picker for a while now, saving up.
I want something that will run Skyrim Remastered really well (the only game I'm really interested in at this point).
My original build list was a i7-6700K and 1070, but I decided that I don't want to mess with 1440p at this point, and would rather build a blow out 1080p rig.
I'm thinking of going down to an i5-6600K now. Save some money on the processor and not having to buy a closed loop water cooler (Cooler Master heat sink instead) and apply that to the Samsung 950 M.2 SSD where I think I will notice a bigger performance difference as far as general usage goes.
My question is...would you stick with a 1070 for the new Syrim revamp? Could I run it maxed out with a lesser card do you think? If a cheaper RX 480 can run the game great maxed out at 1080p I may as well just go with that!
Thanks.
