Big doubts for a "From Zero" Computer

[Flancito]

Hello guys, so the things goes like this. Im currently using and old (like really old) PC and in a few months, im going to travel to Europe (Im from Argentina, and here everything is CRAZY expensive) so im thinking of buying the key parts such as Processor, Motherboard, and GPU. Im not sure of the budget that i'll have at the moment of my trip. But i can work with that untill i get to that time.

 

I dont know very much about the prices in EU, and if there are many diff between countries or so. I was researching a lot in some big shops in London, but if you guys know cheaper countries or even stores, i will love to know that.

 

No more crappy stories, i will just say the things that are on my mind atm.

 

 

I was thinking in the :

ASUS 4 GB STRIX NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970

Along with the: 

i5-4570

And this motherboard:

ASUS Maximus VII Ranger

 

What i was wondering if this is a good set up, in terms of price, i am a big fan of Intel so im not really going to go for an AMD, but maybe u guys could give me a hand with the processor there i should pick.

 

Ps; Sorry if i did not make myself understood, gotta practice my writting lol

Usually the cheapest tech stuff is available in Germany, I always order there (I live in Italy).

Actually I don't know much about the price differences across the EU, but I'll give you a rough overview what you'll pay in Germany: (Everything given that 1 EUR ~ 10.26 ARS)

 

All prices are from mindfactory.de, they have pretty much everything (besides EVGA) and also usually some of the lowest prices. If you're interested in buying there you'd have to order online or go to their store in Wilhelmshaven, located in the North of Germany.

 

 

Prices

 

Asus GTX 970 Strix: 357 EUR ~ 3,665 ARS

 

Intel i5 4590 (actually 4 EUR cheaper than 4570): 198 EUR ~ 2,032 ARS

 

ASUS Maximus VII Ranger: 155 EUR ~ 1,591 ARS

 

 

So you'd end up paying around 710 EUR / 7,288 ARS (plus shipping).

 

 

 

I hope that helped a little. Have a nice time in Europe!

Well, thank you guys for the answers! I will look forward to get the best prices and quality as well obvs! Btw, Does all these items go well together right?

Yes, they do go together very well, although the mainboard is a little overkill for a non-K CPU.
