(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I'm not an expert, but my less-expert than me friend asked if I could help with building a gaming PC.
We might crack windows, so don't add that in.
Note also that he doesn't want to spend more than 700 Euros, since he needs to buy a monitor too.

I chose:
CPU: Intel 1150 i5-4570 Ci5 Box (3,2GHz) BX80646I54570 [163 Euros] 221$
GPU: CLUB3D R9 280X royalQueen 3GB GDDR5 [241 Euros] 327$
Motherboard: ASRock B85M-HDS 1150 M-ATX D-Sub/HDMI/DVI [49 Euros] 66$
Memory: 2x 4GB Kingston HyperX Intel DDR3-1600 DIMM CL9 [49 Euros] 66$
HDD : HD 1 THERA S-ATA III CACHE 64MB - ST1000DM003 [50 Euros] 67$
CASE: Cooler Master Elite 335 Tower ATX+ 520W Power Supply. [43 Euros] 58$
INPUT: Devastator Kit Mouse+Keyboard [33 Euros] 44$

Total: 628 Euros = 853 USD more or less.

Please tell me what do you think about it, what shoud I change and what should I keep.
Also, tell me a good DVD burner, since I don't really know nothing about those.

Thank you very very much in advance




EDIT: We did it. You must login or register to view this content.

I would, personally, recommend changing the i5 into something like AMD FX-8350 - You must login or register to view this content. - Much more power imo. Also, I hope you include cooling in this and just decided to not post it lol, cooling a HUGE part.

I don't know a whole lot about DVD/CD/Blu-Ray drives and burners, but comparing this to others - You must login or register to view this content. - seems like a decent choice imo.

Are some fans enough ? Wich ones should I pick to cool the case nicely ?

Don't use a power supply that didn't came with a case, get a separate 600w power supply and that isn't a bad computer

Thank you all guys. I managed to get a really good one. It should easily run BF4 at HIGH, I think.
Check this out if you're curious : You must login or register to view this content. GRAND TOTAL=706 euros more or less.

Thank again!

A 650 won't do it, you don't need that water cooler or the fans as the case has fans, so use that money you saves to get a better graphics card a gtx 660 or radeon 7870ghz or r9 270 is the minimum you want

Oh heck. Then we will pick a 7870 if you say so !

i have radeeon 280x teamed up with i7 4770 and i play bf4 on ultra without any problems i highly recomend them bro

Thanks for the advice !
What kind of power supply do you guys use/recommend ? Is a 430W enough ?
Do I reallly need to buy a 500W PSU to be able to use the Gigabyte Radeon HD 7870 ?

Basically, the current system specs are these ones :You must login or register to view this content. - Are they good to go ? (Note that we don't really need a system that can run BF4 on ultra, medium is enough to start)

So basically we have :
MOTHERBOAR Asrock 990fx extreme 3 ATX
CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5 GHz
Graphics card: Gigabyte radeon HD 7870
A 1TB HDD
A 430W Corsair PSU
A Case that comes in with 3 120mm fans, and a 140 mm fan and is also good for cable management. (The case also has nice dust filters)
1 8GB Corsair vengeance RAM.

I'm kinda noobish lol.

For that build I'd get a 500w not a super cheap one but a good quality one. And if you have to get a 970 chipset motherboard.
