Hi!

 

I'm building a new rig and was wondering if this is an good option:

https://www.inet.se/kundvagn/visa/7641055/2015-01-13

My concerns is mostly for the PSU and CPU.

 

The website is in swedish and I'm trying to get to the 1000 dollar mark on the PC.

 

Thanks in advance!

Go with a 4690k+z97 board if you can afford it, R9 280x, a cheaper ssd, no optical drive, and another 4gb of ram. If you can't afford a 4690k+z97 board, then you may as well lose the hyper 212 and put that money towards a better gpu.

Please someone swap that 960 for another card.

Unless you want a mini ITX rig avoid that card( its the best mini ITX card for that price point)

It is a bit overkill to drive to Germany just to buy computer parts, it makes more sense to me to pay the premium for the parts and have them shipped according to me.

Looks good, But ditch that 2400Mhz RAM and go for 1600Mhz RAM instead.
Pretty much the only time you will benefit with higher than 1600Mhz RAM is when you use integrated graphics.
