how's the Radeon HD 8750M?

Belgium = world record holder for not having a government for 541 days.

I think there is still some amazing music being made today. Even "mainstream" music can be great! Look who's headlining the festivals. Bands like Arctic Monkeys, Arcade Fire or Franz Ferdinant. They are pretty "mainstraim" and make some groovy tunes Also, there will always be an underground scene where you can find the more experimantal types of music . I think the internet made the music industry explode! Especially here in Belgium. 5years ago you had maybe a handfull of bands that where sort of OK. Now we have Belgian bands playing festivals around the world

Try applying outside of Texas? I don't know if staying close to home is important to you, but If you are really into technology you could try moving to a place where you don't feel like you're in the middle of nowhere just my 2 cents

I'm impressed that there are 3 wii games in there. Especially WII play

Try Pixmania.nl ! They have a sapphire 7950 for around 230euro's http://www.pixmania.nl/videokaart/sapphire-technology-radeon-hd-7950-3-gb-gddr5-pci-express-3-0-11196-19-20g/21182540-a.html#description I don't know how good/bad their service, but you can't argue with that price

Sure, but i don't think you'll need a 750W power supply unless you're planning to add a second GTX 760 in there. Save yourselve some money and get a better graphics card

The title says it all, i'm planning on putting a rig together and i want to go the ITX route, however i have no idea how to choose a motherboard. Help is much appreciated! Wolf EDIT: preferably for socket 1155/1150 or AM3+

Will donate for sure! I would never been able to complete my build without this forum

Awesome giveaway! Thanks in advance ;)

Hahaha sorry man, i can't read Chinese :D

I was wondering where you can buy these and how much they would cost. IMO they look insane! So much aluminum :D If anyone has more info, let me know! PDW

Hello there! I already made a post here before about a planned build, it had a core i-5 3470 and i was quite pleased with how it looked on paper. but then... I read the anandtech article about the best gaming CPU in 2013 and according to them it was the A85600K. I'll link it at the end of the post. I was wondering if the build i had planned out would work well for gaming. I plan on gaming on a single monitor, 1080p. Budget is 800euro's. On a final note, i live in Belgium :D THANKS IN ADVANCE! Case: Bitfenix Prodigy 81.99 (I'm not sure about this case though, if anyone knows any great looking Mini-ITX cases...) CPU: A85600K 94.90 Mobo: ASRock FM2A85X - ITX 94.90 GPU: XFX radeon 7870 DD Black edition 229.95 RAM: 8GB Corsair Vengeance 67.9 PSU: BeQuiet 500W 80+ Silver 64.9 SSD: Samsung 840 120Gb 89.90 HDD: Got a 500Gb from my old system FREE Grand total so far: 724.44 Link to the article: http://www.google.be/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=9&sqi=2&ved=0CIEBEBYwCA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.anandtech.com%2Fshow%2F6934%2Fchoosing-a-gaming-cpu-single-multigpu-at-1440p&ei=vXbFUYHYDtDesgbJroDYBw&usg=AFQjCNH906LITeyvnFdpd3sxKxf1ZNh6Yw&bvm=bv.48293060,d.Yms Suggestions and advice please! Thanks! PDW

Currently in my second semester of becoming a secondary education teacher. Economics and Dutch :D

I live in Belgium as well and i ordered my parts from: Mijnitshop.be: they have everything, but not every known brand (they only have corsair PSU) Conrad.nl: Has a huge variety of cases. Coolblue.be: best service i have ever experienced. If you order before 3p.m. you get it the same day. And if you order between 3 and 11p.m you get it the next day :D (graphics cards, CPU and SSD's only though)

Bioshock 1 because of the amazing story and voice acting. "I chose the impossible, i chose Rapture" man that still gives me chills...

Ok i followed some of the advice you guys gave me. This is how it looks now: CASE: Silverstone SST - PS08B: €39.99 PSU: Corsair CX500W 80+ Bronze: €63,34 Motherboard: ASUS P8H77-M PRO - moederbord - micro ATX - LGA1155 Socket - H77: €100,20 CPU: Intel Core I5 - 3470: € 188,19 GPU: Club 3D HD 7950 Royalking: € 287,95 RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB: € 65.27 Storage: Seagate Barracuda 500GB: € 51,86 Grand total: € 796.8 :D Thanks a million for the advice! :D

Got any suggestions for a case? The fractal case is 76euros. Now any good looking value cases?

Well i live in belgium, so we don't have NCIX or Newegg or anything like that. I chose all my parts from mijnitshop.be except for the GPU. That was ordered from coolblue. If you know a different store with better prices be sure to let me know :D

Hi there! So i'm planning on doing my first build. I already picked out my parts, but i wanted to see if you guys had any advice or had any alternative build suggestions. I will be using this build to play games on, Single monitor 1080p, with frames as high as i can get them. One thing though. The budget is around 800euro's, i won't go higher than 810. Final note: I live in Belgium. NO "If you can spare 50 than get this..." PARTS: - Case: Fractal Design ARC MINI - Motherboard: ASUS P8H67-M LE B3 Revision - PSU: Corsair CX600 V2 - CPU: Intel core i5 - 3470 - GPU: XFX 7870 Double Dissipation Black Edition - RAM: 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws - HDD: WDBlue 1TB Planning on adding an SSD later, don;t have the money for it right now :p Thank in advance!
