sorry man didn't know where to put it :/

 

Why no problem man :) It happens

 

As for your question:

 

Why do you need a new CPU cooler? And what CPU would that be?

Personally, I like the NZXT (based on pictures) a lot more than the Corsair case, but that's a matter of personal taste.

 

I'd suggest you get a 250GB SSD no matter what case you decide to go with, so Upgrade path 3 would be my pick. 120GB will run out so fast (Been there, done that)

Okay. Have you considered splitting the upgrade into more parts, saving up for the rest in between?

 

Example: get the RAM and SSD now and save a bit so you can get the case and CPU cooler later?

I've opted for that but the prob is I curently have a lot of problems with w10 (surprisingly ;)) and I get 100% usage (not always) and on bf1 I get lag cause I don't have enough memory and then the case is because the current case is complete shit and need to change it asap

OK, so case+RAM now, the rest after next paycheck?

 

Besides, from the prices you listed, the NZXT case and 250GB SSD plus the rest makes 7228 pesos. You said your budget is like 7600 pesos.
