Hello everyone,
this is the first time I'm building a (gaming)PC and I would love to see your opinions about it.(Max budget 630€)
What would you guys change?(Cheaper case and more Ram?)

(Already own 1TB HDD and DVD Reader)

Thanks in advance!

Are you overclocking? The things I would change are the CPU cooler to a Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo and increase the RAM to 8GB at 1600MHz

Intel Core i5 4690K @ 4.2Ghz | Evga GTX 780 Ti SC ACX with backplate | MSI Gaming 9 AC | 8GB (2x4) Corsair Vengeance Pro Silver 2400 MHz | Corsair H105 128GB Crucial MX100 | Toshiba 2TB | Evga 750G2 | Corsair Obsidian 750d | Be Quiet Silent Wings 2 PWM (3x140mm & 3x120mm)

I was thinking about overclocking but I am not pretty sure, that's why I didn't mention it.

The 212 Evo will probably be enough for the CPU, but 8GB is almost a necessity.

Yeah I would say switch to a 212 Evo, buff up your amount of ram and try and get a better gpu, as that matters more with regards to games then anything else.

I'm a student currently attending the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, if you attend or around there please don't hesitate to contact me!
