New gaming computer.

Hello.
Recently I've posted a topic asking people to help me build a gaming PC. My budget was around $1000, but I just found out that with computer parts, $ and €'s are just about the same. (If I buy an intel core i5 3.4 ghz it's $200 or €190, so really no difference). The reason I said $1000 is because I use euro's and my budget was around €800.

Anyway, doesn't matter. I've managed to choose a few things myself.
All prices are in Euro's, don't get confused.

Intel Core i5 3.4 GHz Processor - €194
Cooler Master GX RS-550-ACAA-D3 (RS550-ACAAD3-EU) Voeding - €63
cooler master cm 690 ii - €64
Scythe katana 4 - €28
ASUS M5A78L-M/USB3 - €60
ASUS XONAR DG - €26
Corsair Vengeance 16 GB DDR3-1600 Quad-Kit - €75
Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 ST1000DM003, 1TB - €65
LG GH24NS90 black - €15
Nvidia GTX650Ti 1GB - €105
Eminent EM1053 66-in-1 Cardreader USB 2.0 - €10

If the graphics card is not good enough, I could just buy the GTX660 2GB for about €80 more.

Or:
AMD FX-8150 - €165
Antec HCG-520 - €55
Antec One - €50
Scythe katana 4 - €28
Asrock 970 Extreme4 motherboard - €80
Asus Xonar DG - €25
Corsair Vengeance 16 GB DDR3-1600 Quad-Kit - €75
Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 ST1000DM003, 1TB - €65
Sapphire HD 7850 2GB GDDR5 - €222
LG GH24NS90 black - €15

What I want to do with this game computer is make walkthroughs, let's plays and podcasts of games like Amnesia, skyrim, assassins creed 3, possibly battlefield 3 videos, minecraft, runescape, a huge variety of games.

Now, would any of you change anything about the computer? If so, what?
Thanks in advance.

 

Considering you are Dutch you should use http://tweakers.net/ to find the lowest prices for your hardware. When building a more expensive computer it can usually save you some money

I suggest to get 8gb ram to save some money and you won't notice the difference when gaming.

CPU: i5 3570k €210
Mobo: Asrock z77 extreme4 €125
RAM: 8gb Corsair Vengeance €38
Graphic card: Radeon 7850 2gb €223

Total of 596€ so there is around 200€ left for the case/psu/hdd/cooler to fit in your 800 budget.

PSU: OCZ ZS Series 550w bronze €60
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 68€
Case: Antec One €50
Cooler: Scythe Katana 4 €28

Everything together comes at roughly €802 without shipping.

Perhaps you can re-use a DVD drive / Card reader or buy new ones to get the full build for around €850. It's definately worth it to pay a bit more to get a good motherboard and a good graphics card instead of paying less for those IMO.

All in all you should be able to get everything for around 850€ including shipping. Well worth the extra 50€.

 

I've been told a few things are unnecessary. The new cooler etc can be taken out. He recommended buying a gtx 660 for about €80 more.

Intel Core i5 3570K Processor - €209
Cooler Master GX 650W (RS550-ACAAD3-EU) Voeding - €70
cooler master cm 690 ii - €64
MSI H77MA-G43 - €68
Corsair Vxms3 8gb 2x4gb - €31
Seagate Barracuda 7200.14 ST1000DM003, 1TB - €65
LG GH24NS90 black - €15
Nvidia GTX660 2GB - €190
Eminent EM1053 66-in-1 Cardreader USB 2.0 - €10
Total: €722,-

 

I wouldn't bother upgrading to a gtx-660, go with a gtx-650 Ti, and chuck in an SSD instead. If you wanted a larger SSD, downgrade the 3570k to a 2500k (not much difference for the $40 price drop) and increase the size of the SSD.

 

And what about this setup?


CPU: i5 3570k €210
Mobo: Biostar TZ77XE3 €131
RAM: 8gb Corsair Vengeance €38
Graphic card: Radeon 7850 2gb €223
PSU: XFX Pro 550w €55
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 68€
Case: Antec One €50
Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO €25
That way I can also overclock it. It costs about €802.

 

I'd swap off the Radeon GPU to a GeForce OC'd GTX 650 Ti 2Gb, and use the extra cash on an SSD. Downgrade the i5-3570k to an i5-2500k if it means you can get a decent size Samsung 840 series SSD.
