In this Z170 series motherboard we need Intel 1151 CPUs, and I am using the Intel 6700K with the unlocked multiplier.

For thermal paste i am using Gelid GC-Extreme.

We need some power too so i will use my trusty Seasonic 1000W Platium as we have been testing way back in this little review .

And we could use the integrated GPU on this motherboard, but I prefer adding some extra power with a Titan X

Mixing this with a good set of memory in this case G.skill TridentZ DDR4 2 x 8 GB at Standard 3600 Mhz.

For installing the Windows 10 64bit I am using the Samsung 950 Pro M.2 SSD

Are we missing something? We need some cooling for that CPU. Air and water will be the case.

Starting with a Thermalright Silverarrow SB-E Extreme:

And later we will use water on a EK-Supermacy Clean full nickel waterblock.
