Thanks in advance

Research your Parts b4 you buy

CX are not made for Gaming builds, only casual/basic PC's

 

get an r9 390 if you see your self wanting more than 3.5 usable vram and hoping to upgrade in the future

 

a WD black or blue is better for "Gaming builds" in my opinion

Everthing else looks solid

1.DONT GET A CX

2.no ssd?

3. get a r9 390

Great build, but if you can go with MSI 970

Most people pcpartpicker.com but this is fine. First thing is what is your budget and purpose for building it and how will it be used. Now on the the build. The CX power supplies are horrible for higher end pcs because of their low heat tolerance so you should change that.

[vpavlicevic]

What are you going to use this build for and how long are you going to have it?

[MorsVitae]

Also get a 390 and try to fit in an ssd if you can

[Quarsy]

Thanks for the answers. What PSU do you recommend? And I went with the Gigabyte gtx 970 for the black and white theme

[BigDay]

The PC is meant for gaming. I have all the periphials. My budget is around €1000, but parts are more expensive in the Netherlands where I live

great build except the psu

Those Seagates are only nice once you go up the 3TB configuration (they're selling of the nicest and most affordable 3TB 7200rpm drives)

CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K Boxed

GPU: Gigabyte Radeon R9 390 - Gaming OC

I'd go for a caviar black if it fits in budget

But good otherwise
