Hi :) I'm soon moving to Germany and am planning to build a PC while I'm there. I'm looking to spend around 500/550Euro maximum. I don't need a monitor, peripherals or OS. I would prefer the CPU to be Intel as I already have an AMD computer at home. As for the GPU, I really don't mind. I'm gonna play games like, BF4, GTA V and other games I buy randomly. Of course the build needs to be deliverable to Germany and in Euros. Thanks in advance for your help :)

Give me a min - but AMD is a better bet for GTA V since if you want intel for that then i3 is minimum

Would an i5 and a 750ti be better?

not really - not out of the box

The 380 is 10% faster than a 960.

Yea, some 80mm one xD

That reminds me of the old days of cases - those were pretty fun to tinker with - modding was awesome back then :/

So this is where the compromise comes in... An i5 and a 380 sounds like a sweet spot....

It does just a bit overbudget :/

Now no one likes the put a dremel case and just blind you with red leds.

I just loved 2009 - 2010 - best time to be a tech enthusiast really. ^_^

You got the 5870, the 5970, the GTX 480 and GTX 490, should you prefer an all-in-one oven PC, the Nahalem i7s, Phenom IIs - best time evar! :D
