I would suggest adding an SSD. Than go with the first one. That motherboard and that CPU on the second option is just asking for disaster.

Well if you're not going to overclock, then the unlocked processor and z87 board is uselss. By the way, could you post your budget? Half of us could probably make a way better build for the money.

 

Post this in "New Builds and Planning" next time too, please.

 Sorry, i will remember nex time.

 

if a admin sees this then move the thread.

 

EDIT: budget is about 1300- 1500$

but because i live in norway everything is about 1.5x more expensive than us

the first one...and 700w is way more than u need..so reduce on that and get a ssd or if u can get a 780...

For a second there i could have swore there was a 970 board posted there not the 990FX.

I must admit that a 970 board is terrible for anything.

how much wattage do you think is enough then?

[Cubit481]

how much wattage do you think is enough then?

just get a 550w or max 600w...

What is your budget in Norway's currency? We can use the Norway PCPartPicker to make you a build.

Maximum 9000 norske kroner. but i would preefer 7000-8000 Norske kroner

Aw darn I was wrong, there is no nl.pcpartpicker, I'll try to roughly convert the currency with a US $ version.

1 us $ is about 6 Norske/Norwegian kroner

Here you go, $1200, approximately 6500 kroner, and I'm guessing it is in real life 7500 kroner because of the higher prices you mentioned.

This has an SSD, the 2tb storage you wanted, a better GPU, non overclockable which will save you money, the 4570 is a very comparable cpu to the 4670, and an aftermarket CPU cooler to keep things quiet. I'm not sure what brands sell stuff in norway, so look for a same specced alternative to something I mentioned if it is not sold in norway. You can change the case if you want to something that you like the look of, this is just a low price high airflow good for the money case.

[jvkeizer]

I would go for the first one but with an SSD and the RM750
