#1386 PC Build Thread in Hardware

I only plan on using 1 GPU. So as for ATX vs µATX, I suppose µATX is more convenient since I wouldn't use the extra space anyway, but if you'd say ATX (/ a larger case in that case, I suppose) is cheaper / better airflow / better for whatever reason, I'm fine with that aswell.

I was planning on building it very soon, as in, somewhere around the next few weeks.

I was thinking about €750-850 or so (without the GPU obviously), not sure if that's enough though. I can go over it if necessary but preferably not.

#1383 PC Build Thread in Hardware

I'm going to build a new PC quite soon, but I need some help. I already have the graphics card I'm going to use, a Gigabyte GTX 1070 G1 Gaming. My plan was getting an i7 6700k as CPU (Mostly gaming, but also maybe streaming / other more CPU intensive tasks), but outside of that I'm a bit lost. I was thinking of getting 16GB (DDR4) memory since it's not that expensive and I'm occasionally hitting the 8GB-limit on my current PC, so I might aswell. I want to overclock the 6700k. As for storage, a 500GB SSD, I still have a HDD lying around I can use if I need more storage. Probably not gonna get a DVD drive since I still have one I *could* use if necessary, but I'm pretty sure I used the DVD drive on my current PC literally once.
However, I have no idea what a good motherboard / RAM brand / PSU / case / SSD / (am I forgetting anything?) would be. I don't have a specific budget, but I don't really want any special features, just decent prize/performance overall; basically not spending more than necessary, but not cheaping out on anything. As for size, I'm assuming an ATX? motherboard/case, since the 1070 is quite large (~280mm IIRC).
So basically:
GPU: GTX 1070 (already have it)
CPU: i7 6700k (with a decent cooler)
RAM: 16GB DDR4
STORAGE: 500GB SSD
the rest: ??

I'll buy it from a dutch webshop, but I don't know which one specifically (I usually use this to find sites to buy hardware), so I suppose the german pcpartpicker is fine for me, I'm guessing the prices will be really similar.

Thanks in advance!

#13 nameLess qualifies for DreamHack Summer in News

Our issue was the lack of proper maincalling, which can mostly be blamed on me (and everyone tilting to a certain extend, I suppose). Dmoule played fine, it had nothing to do with him.

Not sure where you got that from, I'm the only person in my team that potentially cannot go.

#15 RIP LEGO?? in TF2 General Discussion

Is this only POV demos though? I can only find 1 game where Josh's POV demo was requested in the past year. If he got banned for not uploading STV demos that's ridiculous.

#2304 HUD editing: short questions, quick answers in Customization

I didn't know anything had to be changed to hudlayout.res to enable the health bars, so I just searched in the hudlayout.res you linked and copy-pasted the "HudSpectatorExtras" into my hudlayout.res, and it works now, thanks!

	HudSpectatorExtras

		"fieldName" "HudSpectatorExtras"
