Question

Does these pc parts fit together?

Nov 16, 2018 1:05PM PST

I'm planning to upgrade my pc system, and I want to be sure that everything fits correctly. So my question is, does these parts fit together?
Parts:
MSI B250M Bazooka, Socket-1151
i7 6700k skylake (7th gen) lga1151
Gtx 1060 3gb or 980ti 4gb
Ram: 16gb 2133 mhz
M.2 ssd
Power supply 550W

If someone could give me an answer, I'd be really happy.
Thanks

The ssd is a sata unit.
As per the mobo maker if you use that you will lose sata port 1 on the mobo.

Psu.
Depends which gpu you pick.....you showed 2.
If you pick the gtx 1060 then a 550w should work.
If you pick the gtx 980 ti then you want the 650w.

As per the maker.
The SATA1 port will be unavailable when an M.2 SATA SSD module has been installed in the M.2 slot.

I will go with the 1060, so I'll go with a 550W.
Thanks a lot. Wink Wink
