You can always try something like this: LG 29UM57

The budget doesn't include the periferals (keyboard/mouse/mousepad/possibly speakers) so no worries! I skipped the WD Black because I wasn't sure if it is worth it (also because of the high failure rate of the 4TBs) since I will be mainly using that HDD for backing up my SSDs (no idea if I am going to need them for installing games in there). Should I go with EVGA SuperNova P2 or G2? The price difference is like ~200eu for the G2 and ~240 for the P2. The Noctua NF-P14s redux-1200 PWM fans start from 16eu a piece. Unless I should check out the 1500 ones @ 24eu. I've also have to decide on the case. I liked the one I've posted but I am not sure if I should research a bit more for that part. Thank you once again!

Thank you for the reply. I will follow you on the GPU change but I will keep the WD over Seagate and will get the 1000W EVGA instead of Corsair. Also a quick question. Will I need any extra fans and any ideas how quiet this PC will be? Thanks!

I currently use 3 different PCs for offline work,online work and gaming. I am trying to combine them all in 1 place. The order is Work -> Gaming. I'm just trying to cover everything. For work I require a lot of VMs and that's why I want to go with higher RAM + CPU cores. I also know that video editing requires more cores. With that privacy terms I am not willing to work on a Windows 10 PC. I might do a dual boot just for gaming *when* dx12 arrive.

Hello there, This is my first post here so greetings everyone 1. My budget is up to 5k euros and I will probably buy everything from Germany (they've got the best prices) 2. I've decided to build a new PC at last (last one was nothing special back in 2013 I think) which I'll be using for work (coding, docs, light Photoshop and some video editing) and gaming. I'm also thinking of OC this time (nothing much though since it will be my first time) and I am not good with color schemes (if you can help tyvm!) 3. I've looked around for the best monitor for my needs and I've ended up with Acer Predator X341CK which I've added in my list. If I wanted a pure gaming monitor I would have gone with BenQ XR3501 but since I will be also working on this.. I've also seen that LG 34UC97 would have been a great working monitor but not so good for games (due to the refresh Hz) 4. I haven't included any peripherals yet but I'd like a nice set of keyboard, mouse, mousepad (out of curiosity any decent set of speakers?). I will also be running Windows 7 Ultimate. I might upgrade to 8.1 but I am not planning on putting 10. 5. It is finally time for a serious upgrade So here is what I've made until now: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i7-5820K 3.3GHz 6-Core Processor (€417.05 @ Mindfactory) CPU Cooler: Corsair H100i GTX 70.7 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler (€127.14 @ Mindfactory) Motherboard: MSI X99A GAMING 9 ACK EATX LGA2011-3 Motherboard (€422.84 @ Mindfactory) Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory (€137.84 @ Mindfactory) Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory (€137.84 @ Mindfactory) Storage: Samsung 850 Pro Series 512GB 2.5" Solid State Drive (€227.94 @ Mindfactory) Storage: Samsung 850 Pro Series 512GB 2.5" Solid State Drive (€227.94 @ Mindfactory) Storage: Western Digital Blue 4TB 3.5" 5400RPM Internal Hard Drive (€147.93 @ Mindfactory) Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 980 Ti 6GB Superclocked+ ACX 2.0+ Video Card (€699.00) Case: Thermaltake Core X9 Snow Edition ATX Desktop Case (€179.36 @ Amazon Deutschland) Power Supply: EVGA 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply (€189.66 @ Amazon Deutschland) Optical Drive: LG BH16NS40 Blu-Ray/DVD/CD Writer (€70.66 @ Amazon Deutschland) Monitor: Acer Predator X34 100Hz 34.0" Monitor (€1300.00) Total: €4285.20 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2015-11-26 12:46 CET+0100 Thank you very much for your time and help!
