First Gaming Build

[maxirs8]

Hei guys, I'm new on this forum and I came here to ask you if my future build looks ok or needs something new/different

I will use this primary for gaming but I will do some work for highscool like video rendering or projects in photoshop/unreal engine 4

The parts I choose:

• Processor: Intel Core i5 4690k 3.5Ghz (I want to overclock it for 4Ghz or higher)
• CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D14
• Motherboard: ASRock Fatal1ty Z97X Killer or GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-Gaming 3 (if you know something that is better please let me know)
• Storage: 1 SSHD Seagate 1TB 7200rpm and a SSD Samsung 850 Evo 250GB
• PowerSupply: Sirtec 750W
• VideoCard: Msi / Gigabyte / Asus / Sapphire R9 390 8GB (I heard that the Sapphire is the most used but I don't really know)
• Ram: 8GB HyperX (I get this as a gift from the shop I'll buy the components in my country) p.s. I'm from Romania

The budget is around 1000$-1300$

Thank you for the time and sorry for my poor English, I try my best.

Looks like a solid build, As for the motherboard, I totally recommend the GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-Gaming, In general Gigabyte is the better brand. Also I recommend a different PSU (not to familar with Sirtec) I totally recommend any Silverstone PSU, the Silverstone Strider Essential 600W 80+ Bronze is good choice as you wont need more then 600w. Also if you have the money I would go with the skylake i5-6600K,  which is newer and I like the skylake series  Hope that helps, any question just ask.

Thank you. What do you think about the video card? should I get the msi or the Sapphire r9 390?

I personally would go with the Sapphire, but either will work basically the same. (I believe the Sapphire has better cooling)

Can you recommend me something for a good case? I don't really know what to choose.

Yeah, I personally am a huge fan of corsair so pretty much any case. This http://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Carbide-SPEC-02-Gaming-CC-9011051-WW/dp/B00I0MKMG2/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1457034033&sr=1-3&keywords=corsair+case  is a good case for a reasonable price aswell

I am also from Romania and I knew that PCGarage gives you DDR4 memory, but you need DDR3. Be careful!

I would look into 16 GB of memory if you can, you may need it for your use (maybe not, just something to look for). Get a good power supply instead of this one. R9 390 is an excellent value card and it will perform great in anything. I like the NZXT S340 case. Corsairs mid towers are good too.

I think I'll get the NZXT H440 or Zalman Z11 Neo and a cooler master psu 650W and the i5 6600k

the "v" series by cooler master are excellent
