Its good!

Get a modular PSU like a CXM Series or if you like silence then a RM series PSU form corsair.

Personally i like the Corsair 230T a lot. Its is also quite inexpensive :)

i5 4690k,GTX980,HyperX Savage 8gb,Asus sabertooth mark 2, samsung 850 evo and wd green 1tb with Corsair CSM 650M

I see we have a Corsair fan here... sorry to break it to you, but no Corsair PSUs are good for the money.

Here in the Netherlands this built gets a little bit more expensive than i like, it is more a 1000€ built than a 800€ one, do you know a good 800$/€ built?

Pretty hard for 800 euro :o You can't get the build in the OP with that.

I overall have a budget of 1200/1300 euro's with everything included, mouse, keyboard, monitor and the os. Can maybe get some parts cheaper because of some family that is working in the it sector.

Ahh like that.... yeah okay.

 

Still with 800 euro's I would try a 280X and i5 4670k, later upgrade the GPU, you don't have enough with 800
