A guy named NinjaStar on YouTube asked for a 970 and i5 build under INR 60K ($700). Normally I would do Builds only twice a month but this was a special request so here I go.
If you don't want to read the description of everything head straight down to parts list and PPP Links
The best price/performance i5 is the 4460 but since we used it in the last build, I am going with the Skylake i5 6500 this time. Now the advantage of the 6500 is simple. Its on the newer LGA 1151 socket so that gives a power of future expandability with Kaby Lake releasing in Q4 2016 being on the same socket as well. With the extremely low TDP of 65W this would surely help save money on the long run with a lower power bill.
CPU- Intel Core i5 6500 (15000)
Being on an extremely tight budget for having a 1440p capable PC we need to cut costs somewhere so we the stock cooler for the cooling needs.
Cooler- Stock (00)
The idea for the Motherboard in an extreme budget build like this one is always the same. Get the cheapest good quality one you can find. So here we have an extremely cheap Motherboard from MSI. Also the universal rule of Small size= Small price is also applicable here thats why an mATX motherboard.
Motherboard- MSI H110M Pro (4500)
RAM too was not a difficult choice. We found an amazingly cheap DDR4 2133mhz 8 GB Crucial stick. Since the Motherboard doesn't support anything over 2133mhz it is useless to go anything over that.
RAM- Crucial 8GB 2133mhz x 2 CT8G4DFD8213 (4500)
Storage was another spot to cut costs. So no SSD and no huge hard drives. Also, if you already have any form of storage device, buying one while building a PC can be avoided to cut costs. Here i am adding a hard drive just because I am not sure if the guy has one or not.
HDD- Seagate Barracuda 500 GB 7200 RPM 3.5" (2300)
Now this guy asked for a 970 so I must put a 970. The only problem was that he is from India and India has a very hot tropical climate so blower style coolers won't work. Finding a good aftermarket 970 was the only difficult task in this build but Zotac came in as a saviour.
GPU- Zotac NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970 (24000)
With just 9K left now on the budget finding a case and a power supply was sort of difficult but now much after I saw this.
Case- Deepcool Smarter Micro ATX Case (2700)
Powering this beast of a PC on a tight budget would have been difficult. But the efficient Maxwell and Skylake Architecture made it easy. With a rated TDP lesser than 350W a 500W power supply would be great to give some overclocking room to the PC.
PSU- Corsair VS550 550W (3500)
This sums up the build. We were well under the budget with 3500 remaining in the bank. NinjaSnake can always use this to add more storage or include a better CPU fan. This is an amazingly powerful build and I had never imagined this much power could be packed in a PC in such a small budget.
The actual prices may vary a bit (give or take 3000). Also for the Indian viewers, avoid buying parts online it is much more expensive than the local stores.
Comment down below what you think of this build. If anybody has anything similar do post Benchmarks. Share this build and blog with your friends. And stay tuned for more amazing builds. I have something planned for future so keep checking the blog.
