I am a guy from Denmark, who wants to build a really good gaming pc.

 

It needs to run games like crysis 3, Bioshock: Infinite, Battlefield 3 & 4 and other high graphics demanding games on MAX settings.

 

My budget is around 8000 Dkk. (1400 Dollars)

Please help me, which parts is the most efficient within the budget?

I was thinking like getting a GTX 770 or maybe juuuust push in a 780 if i could, please help with parts :)

Hmm.... let's see. I'm on an iPad right now so I can't give you a full list, but...

Processor: Nothing more than an i5-4670k. It's all you need for just gaming.

RAM: 8GB is enough. Just find the cheapest set with the right speed (for your motherboard) and you should be good.

GPU: Any GTX 770, they're all quite similar. Or go for the cheapest 780 if you can.

Storage: 1-2TB at the most. Seagate Barracuda are good.

If you have some cash left over, go for an SSD like a Samsung 840.

Case: Ask the other guys xD

Cooler: Hyper 212 EVO or ^

Well if I tell him "Buy the cheapest 780 you find!" he will surely get the reference design and that's not good, so I suggested the parts I think are the best, but if he chooses similiar products from Asus & Gigabyte, he can't go wrong too. But it would be best if he posted the site he's buying from so we can make more accurate builds.

Hey, a fellow Dane  ^_^

 

I agree with all the above, but I would advice you to look through the following two articles as well and find your budget on the list:

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-graphics-card-review,3107-2.html

http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/gaming-cpu-review-overclock,3106-2.html

 

Also, hardware tend to be more expensive in Denmark. A quick search on edbpriser.dk (I can recommend that site btw) shows the following cheapest prices for a GTX 770 and GTX 780.

 

GTX 770: 2786 DKK = 492,4 USD

GTX 780: 4547 DKK = 803,6 USD

 

Quick case recommendation? Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 is a great case for 670 DKK (118,4US$ if anyone is wondering):

Thanks, seems very awesome! BUT, why not go with the CX750 instead, its cheaper ? :)

And wouldn't i loose perfomance, as the GTX 770 is better than 7870 or what ? :)

+ Most games don't use more than 4 cores, but that CPU is very cheap though O.o

Nope, that PSU is certified only up to 30°C, which is very easy to exceed, so if you run 2 7970s in the future (very hot cards), your PSU might not supply enough power, so it will just crash. The TX750M is certified up to 50°C, I can't think of exceeding that limit in the Arc Midi R2.

1, HD7970 is equally performing to the 770

2, New consoles use 8-core APUs so games will be more optimized for octa-cores.

Change out the gpu for a 7950: http://www.cinemagic.dk/shop/sapphire-radeon-hd-309081p.html

The 7950 is a much better value than a 7970 on the site and isn't that much weaker.

A cx750 is also scratching it [pretty close for a 7970 CF if you were to ever oc them--better off getting 2 7950's for cheaper and oc'ing them for similar performance without pushing the psu too much.

Why downgrade when he can afford better, 7950 can be OCed to the 7970 level, but the 7970 can be OCed too. And it isn't a small diffirence, it is the same diffirence as between the 770 and 760, or between 660Ti and 680.
