Hi. Preparing for first build attempt.

Parts:

Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3P (Purchased)

Would like to use on-board HD530 graphics.

i3 6100 (Not yet purchased)


(I currently only have 4GB DDR4 will this be enough to get things running until I can get more)


Any comments appreciated, thanks.

Should work. But as you yourself are already aware, you will probably need more RAM since you will be sharing some of the RAM for use with the CPU graphics. Yes, I believe you should be able to "get things running" with just 4GB RAM, but I strongly recommend you get more as soon as you are able to.

Yes it should work fine but you should definitely get more ram as 4GB is not much expecially because you are sharing ram with the video card
