Build suggestions!

Hello Linustechtips forum! 

I request advice and suggestions from you guys about planning to build my very first pc.

I live in Sweden and the build im planning will mostly be used for gaming, I would like the system to be able to handle games like GTA V, Witcher 3, Dragon age Inquisition, Battlefield 4, Skyrim with HD mods fairly well at 1080p. I will also play soft games like League of Legends though but I would really like to jump over to other games. (My current computer is having problems handling League of Legends at max settings).

 

I will be using only one monitor and I don't need any peripherals included in the budget. 

 

My budget will range from 700 to 900 $US, going a couple of bucks past 900 isnt that dangerous, and I will have the possibility to save up for something although I prefer not to.

 

What is the best bang for the buck?

 

If I've broken any rules, be sure to let me know please!
^_^Thanks in beforehand ^_^

2TB because games are big nowadays. You can always use W10TP if you need an OS.

Links on a local store and your country's budget would be much appriciated.

I am sorry, here you go:

The price will range from 5900 - 7500 Swedish Crowns (SEK)

Do you need an OS in the budget?

That sounds very far fetched, don't you think? Considering that I don't know him at all and even if I were to commit to that suggestion I would like a little more information about him/the deal you're suggesting

You could easily buy a fairly capable gaming machine that uses a 4670k, and possibly a gtx 970 (the i5 is around 1500kr for me in norway, and the 970 is around 3500 kr)

 

with that setup, you could also get away with a lower wattage psu like 600W

 

(these prices are komplett.no, and the Swedish prices should not be too different)

NCIX, Directron and Newegg doesn't ship to Sweden I believe.

It's very interesting how you found a 4670k for around 1500 NOK, can you please link me because the item doesn't even exist on the Swedish version of the komplett website

oh my bad, it appears that the 4670k has been replaced by the more expensive 4690k on most of the sites I looked at (around 2100kr on komplett.no and dustinhome.no)
