This summer I am building my first gaming pc. I have used a lot of my spare time to do research for what to buy, so now I am pretty sure that I have put together a good gaming build. And since this is my first gaming build I will need a monitor and keyboard as well. Btw the reason why I didn't list a mouse and ssd is because i already have a Logitech G 500 and a Samsung 840 evo 120 GB.

 

CPU: i5 4690k

Mobo: Gigabyte z97-HD3

GPU: Msi gtx 770 gaming

Psu: Corsair cx 600w semi modular

Hdd: 1TB WD blue

Case: Phanteks entho pro

Ram: Crucial ballistix sport 8GB

Cpu cooler: Hyper 212 evo

Monitor: Samsung s24d390hl pls panel

Os: Windows 8.1

Keyboard: Qpad mk-50

 

The reason why I am posting this is because I want to ask you guys if I should any of the parts before I order. Here is the link to the shop I will be buying from http://www.netonnet.no/ it is in Norwegian, but there is always the translation feature on chrome.

With a $1700 build you should be able to get a gtx780. 

 

/nvm...you're from Norway and everything is overpriced to hell there....so maybe not. 

 

P.s. Get two 4gb sticks rather than one 8 gb stick.

Unless you're set on that case there are plenty of cheaper alternatives, which are just as good.

Isn't Norway the best? I forgot to mention that it was a 2*4GB set. I would have picked something else but it was the cheapest 8 GB ram kit they had so I went for it.
