A pretty good example I made of what you could get for the price (I removed retailer prices from unreliable places such as superbiiz)

Price breakdown by merchant: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2J2VE/by_merchant/

 

CPU: Intel Core i5-4570 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor  ($194.99 @ NCIX US) (overclocking on Haswell is not really worth it anyway, and an AMD processor WILL make your electricity bill higher especially if you live in Denmark)

CPU Cooler: Xigmatek Dark Knight II SD1283 Night Hawk Edition 89.5 CFM CPU Cooler  ($49.99 @ Newegg) (decent cooler, chosen because of the black color that would go well with rest of the parts) 

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD4H ATX LGA1150 Motherboard  ($149.99 @ Microcenter) (black and red motherboard...)

Memory: Kingston Black 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory  ($69.99 @ Amazon) (really nice ram with a nice dark finish)

Storage: Plextor M5S Series 256GB 2.5" Solid State Disk  ($164.99 @ Microcenter) (really good price for a 256gb ssd and plextor is a very reliable brand)

Storage: Hitachi Ultrastar 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive  ($102.94 @ Amazon) (hitachi is the most reliable hdd brand in terms of failure rates and the price is good)

Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 770 2GB Video Card  ($329.99 @ Newegg) (to go with the black and red scheme. Also a very nice cooler)

Case: Corsair 750D ATX Full Tower Case  ($129.99 @ Microcenter) 

Power Supply: SeaSonic S12II 620W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply  ($71.30 @ Newegg) (should provide ample power. Seasonic or their OEM psus such as XFX are the best)

Optical Drive: Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer  ($16.99 @ Newegg) (cheap, reliable)

Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 - 64-bit - OEM (64-bit)  (~100$ @ Amazon) (if you find a windows 8 key for cheaper, get that since 8.1 is a free upgrade) 

Total: $1383.43

(Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)

Der vil altid være bedre ting kommer ud. Køb det, når du vil, ellers vil du vente for evigt.
