I only plan to use my computer for coding, hacking and occasionally doing some really basic Photoshop edits. I would like to triple boot Windows 10 / Sierra / Ubuntu. I will also need to run virtual machines. I don't mind only being connected via Ethernet. I can do without wifi at the moment.
The real question is : Do I really need to purchase a GPU?
Intel Core i7 6700K - $319.97
Gigabyte (GA-Z170X-Gaming 7) Motherboards - $129.99
Ballistix Sport LT 16GB Kit (8GBx2) - $119.88
Seagate Barracuda 1 TB 7200RPM SATA - $65.00
(3) Samsung 850 EVO 250GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Internal SSD - $104.49
EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G1, 80+ GOLD 650W, Power Supply - $74.99
Corsair Hydro Series H55 Quiet Edition Liquid CPU Cooler - $59.99
Corsair Carbide Series Black 300R Mid-Tower Computer Case - $69.99
Thermal Paste - $7.14
Total: $1,160
I have all the basic tools, is there anything else I should look into purchasing for this build ! I would like to have most of the standard OX features working so if I can find a decent wifi / bt I would buy it.
P.S. Do I need to purchase cables?
