Hello everyone,

I'm from Italy and i'm looking forward to build a gaming PC with the budget of 800€(monitor price apart).I've been lurking in this forum for a while and i'm planning to build a pc in the next weeks.I already put together my build but i want to get some advice to see if it's possible to get better components and possibly saving some bucks.Maybe if you want link me a better build for the same or lower price.

This is what i choose:

PCPartPicker part list:http://pcpartpicker.com/list/PkBbhq

Since is my first build i don't know if i can choose cheaper components and maintain almost the same performance.These are my concern:

 

  1. I choose  Aerocool Aero-500 ATX Mid Tower Case and i'm not sure that my motherboard and all other components can fit in properly in that case.
  2. I choose Corsair VS550, CP-9020097 and i think should be good for my build but maybe there is something better.
  3. I choose  Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" but maybe Samsung 750 EVO has almost the same performance but it's cheaper.
  4. Between MSI GeForce GTX 960 4GB and the GTX 960 2GB version there is a lot of difference in game performance?

Thanks for reading!

Where are you from?

Any particular store you want it from?

What is your current computer? Can you part it out?

1.  That power supply is crap.

 

2.  You don't need a $100 motherboard.  A $60 motherboard will be fine.

 

3.  You might as well get an IPS display, the price is the same most of the time.

 

4.  The GTX 960 is a weak card for $200.

Prices for 480s and 1060s are way too high at over 300 euro in amazon.it so I included a link to a RX 470, which is 8% off the 480 and costs 200 euro. It is set to ship in a month though.

I'm sorry the budget was reffered for the pc parts only.I have considered the monitor apart so the budget is actually 800€+monitor.

I have put also the monitor in the PCPartPicker list and I understand that can create confusion...
