700€ Gaming Build

What do you guys think about that build. It's mainly for gaming purposes, and overclocking is not intended in ANY way (GPU). 

It is for a friend and in € it is about 660 I think, but the prices are pretty much the same. (except for Power Supply)

get an r9 380x and you'll be good

well 700€ is equal to 788 USD,

so maybe this?

if the gpu cost too much maybe you can drop it to a 380x

I think the parts are cheaper in the us, because they are the same value here (the gpu costs 206€ and 206$) so there is no money to spend MORE, the only possibility would be to sacrifice some cpu power (for example) to get more gpu or smthn.(It seems like you can take the US prices as the EU prices too...)The last 40 bucks would be needed for a case btw.

then i suggest you change the 960 to a 380, it performs better in games, but only lacks nvidia features

you can stick with the 960 if you want nvidia's features though

 

otherwise, nice build :3

you can delete the quote lol

just click the frame and press delete, if it doesnt work then repeat

 

nah, its fine

motherboard brand doesnt matter as long as it works, graphics card brand doesnt really matter, the performance difference really is miniscule

my suggestion is pick a combination that makes your desktop looks badass maybe

that said, i would normally take a look at sapphire, xfx and msi for amd gpu, but the point above still stands
