Yo people, I did it! I had a chat with my dad about getting a PC and building it myself and surprisngly he didnt have a problem! So I'm like YEEEA! Now I'm not gona get the PC anytime soon, but it is gona be sometime this year. Whihc website do you recommend for finding the parts? Which website is the best in this? PCPartPicker? Btw, I live in Europe so maybe a european site with the prices in euros wouldnt be bad, but I mean no problem with other sites that have it in USD I can get it off of there too anyway. So, yea which site?

pcpartpicker.com is really good for making parts list and finding good prices on parts. You can post the part list in pc planning and we can help you make adjustments for the best performance.

I agree with @sabot. http://www.pcpartpicker.com is the best site for choosing computer parts.

Pcpart picker if you are in the UK/VS and canada 

Yes pcpartpicker

Just select UK or whatever it was that gave different currencies.

Why is this in the PC Gaming section?

And yes, PCpartpicker. Best and easiest option.

Honestly, for people in europe, it is not PC part picker.

It is the easiest way, sure, but definitely not the best (unless you have no other option).

For Australia and Europe, PCPartPicker does not account for most of the actual retailers there, online or otherwise. I only trust PCPartPicker for US and Canada. 

Just my 2 cents.

It may not cover retailers and currencies everywhere, but its still useful to plan out your build. I don't use it for retailers because I buy locally.

Oh yea, sorry.

1.Location:Slovakia(Middle Europe), Budget I still dont know but its going to be at least 700 euros. For now I see it somewhere around 700-1k euros but nothing is cerain at all

2.Gaming. Of course I'll go on the internet too forums, YT and such(i dont edit or make videos though). But yea like 99.9% gaming. What kind of gaming? Hm, well I will try to play some of the more graphical heavy games like bf4 for example. Im really liking the gtx680 as my GPU but thatll be in the end for YOU guys to decide as sooner or later ill make a topic asking if my parts are good or not

3.Hm, I think im gona go the classic way. 1 monitro. Resolution, I want a really good one so like 1920x1080(no 4k that is so expensive). But yea I want full hd res and 1920x1080 is the norm right?

4.Peripherals needed: Keyboard and I guess some kind of sound equipment, speakers peferably. Although Im worried this is where my planned budget might rise. But who knows I might raise my budget since Ill most likely combine my money with my dad's. Mouse and mousepad I already have, might get a new pad but those are cheap. I will need an OS too. I prefer Windows 7.

5. Well, Im not upgrading, but as you already know, Im just starting "true" PC gaming. By true I mean I have played on a laptop which you could consider PC gaming too but that was just so bad, never again!

Will gigatore work? http://www.gigastore.sk/

Yes, 1080p is the norm. Depending the pricing of the 680, there will probably be better options.
