Hello everyone, I'm new here, but I still love you.

 

At the moment I have lol build, with an intel 3350P, 4Go 1333Mhz Corsair, a Blitz MRCUBE 850W 80+ Platinum PSU, an ASUS m-atx motherboard, and a Radeon HD 5850 graphics gard, an Apple keyboard,

a Razer Deathadder 3500dpi mouse....

 

My objective here is to upgrade my rig to be able to run all the coming games at maximum settings, but by using AMD components.

 

For now, here's what I got on my list of things to buy  : 

 

​So what would you guys say ? Is it okay ?  Thanks a lot for your advices and help :)

Can you buy in germany? Just buying cheaper graphic card ( for example 7970 sapphire vaporx  for 308€ if you use idealo.de and hardwareversand.de ) covers the shipping with 20€ to spare :D

proof: http://www.idealo.de/preisvergleich/OffersOfProduct/3544896_-radeon-hd-7970-3072mb-gddr5-11197-11-xxg-sapphire.html

 

1. Wait for r9 series and check back laterz :D

Until then, check this sites: Idealo.de, hoh.de, geizhalz.de, hardwareversand.de( when you look in idealo or geizhalz.de you put hardwareversand items in your cart so its cheaper)

I think that a new CPU is a waste of money, your i5 performs the same as FX8350. Just get a 7970, SSD and other stuff, and switch the keyboard for something mechanical, Blackwidow 2013 Ultimate if you want Razer. Also you can get Sennheiser PC360 headset for similiar price, it's WAAAY better.

My rig: CPU: Intel core i5 4670K MoBo: MSI Z87-G45 Gaming RAM: Kingston HyperX Beast 2x4GB 1600mhz CL9 GPU: EVGA GTX780 SC ACX SSD: ADATA Premier Pro SP900 256GBHDD: Western Digital RED 2TB PSU: FSP Aurum CM 750W Case: Cooler Master HAF XM OS: Windows 8 Pro

Agree with all of this except wait for R9 GPUs and get something like an AD700X/HD595 plus a Zalman clip on mic. Headsets are a waste of money.
