1. I don't like XFX PSU's. EVGA Nex 650W is a much better choice.

2. Don't get kingston 300V. They are pretty shite atm. Crucial MX100 is a much better choice.

3. You can most likely improve the RAM to 1866MHz CAS 9 for €5 more.

This is why you should not get an FX CPU for ANY scenario other than rendering on a budget http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/286142-fx-8350-r9-290-psu-requirements/?p=3892901 http://linustechtips.com/main/topic/266481-an-issue-with-people-bashing-the-fx-cpus/?p=3620861

Looks pretty good to me, though you could drop a few bucks off the price by getting a 212 EVO by CM. Also you may want to get a HDD and a different SSD, I suggest the MX100 and a Seagate Barracuda for mass storage.

Looks good, don't get the kingston ssd though, it's not very good from what I heard. Get a samsung 850 pro.

An 850 Pro!??!?!? He wouldn't need that, a 840 EVO would be fine, no need to get into the Pros, let alone the 850 series. 

 

i have a external one 1tb it will work for now until i get a bit more money   :)

Than you should be good with mass storage but be sure to get a different SSD and possibly a different CPU cooler if you don't plan on overclocking.

1. The XFX is far better than the EVGA Nex. The only thing that lets XFX down is the warranty support.

Oh yes sorry I got confused with the names :P I meant the 850 evo just because it's the latest version, but yeah, the 840 evo is fine too.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

Which doesn't really matter in most eu countries because shop that sells the thing has to deal with warranty.

Lol, happens to the best of us, I don't know how much the 850 EVO is more than the 840 EVO. But I'd rather just get the 840 EVO unless it's only like $15 more for the 850 EVO.

I agree. As long as you buy from a decent shop you will be fine. The only trouble would be if the retailer you buy from went out of business, then you would have to deal with the horrible xfx customer support yourself.
