I might actually have to change the PSU from the rosewill capstone, cause its out of stock and i cant find it anywhere in Estonia and there arent many actual decent pc part shops in our country.

This is one of those weird moments when the 960 is a better value than the 290.

How's this look instead?

This looks like a solid build.  It wouldn't be my choice, especially the motherboard, but it does look like it should be a good system; especially for the price.

Isnt the gtx 960 alot worse than the r9 290 ?

I wouldn't say that, especially if we factor in power consumption and Direct X 12 support.  To make it more fair, we should compare the GTX 960 4GB version to the R9 290.  If I had to choose one, it would be the GTX 960 4GB version, which should be about the same price as the R9 290.

A new question, would that pc be able to play gta 5 and/or stream csgo (internet speed not in consideration),with the gtx 960 4gb version that is

[Joshua Bean]

In my opinion, I would go with 16gbs of RAM.

Yes, and you definitely want the 4GB version for GTA 5 as it's very vram demanding.

Why's that? It would unnecessarily gimp the budget. 

[Joshua Bean]

Just better for rendering, and multitasking on your PC.

Not if it gimps the rest of the system but carving out the budget--which it would do.

Ok. Thanks. But I partially agree, yet partially disagree about your opinion on 16 gigs vs. 8. 8 gigs of RAM vs. 16 gigs is starting to look more and more like 8 gigs vs 4 gigs.

That's an exaggeration at best. 

4GB is not enough for multitasking with many games. 

Very few games need more than 8GB.
