i5 is enough for gaming and basic rendering. You should only go with i7 if A) you aren't planning on upgrade in next 3 years B) you do extensive 3D work or video editing C) you have money for it. On mobo you should concentrate things like color scheme, features and expendability. How many expansion cards you will run? Are you planning on OC? Whats need for SATA ports and maybe fan headers? i7 with premium board will spend most of that budget, 4770K is $400 at Amazon UK atm. So its going to be $400 for cpu, maybe $60 for ram, $200 for premium mobo. Thats pretty much your budget wasted before GPU. For gaming machine HD4000 graphics ain't gonna be nice. You should place atleast $300 just for GPU. And still with i7 its byebye budget.

 

Thing here is that you could save up something by going with non-OC cpu and mobo. Just bit though and budget will still be pretty much busted.

Ok i5 4670k will be fine. The mobo as i said before i will not change it it has as many features i want, and also an mPCIe which i will change to killer ethernet. Thats was the only reason for going with Msi but since asus has it......... If i will be playing BTF4 the i5 will be ok. As i have understand i should give more money to GPU since i will not do as much 3d rendering , i5 is good.

What GPU should i take??

With the processor i will go with an  i7 or i5. Now i have the money as i told you the i7 know is cheap on amazon now. But in the future when the sales are over i will have to go with the i5?. For a graphics card i had fxed one the asus MARS maybe but for now is it good

You're spending too much money in the wrong places. By getting such an expensive mobo, you cripple the rest of your system by chunking away at your budget. Getting an expensive mobo won't do anything for performance and you exactly have much room for luxuries if what you want is that, performance.

GIVE ME YOUR OPINion?

what should i get?

and where should i spend more money

It's hard to give recommendations if I don't know where you're shopping.

Parts availability and pricing varies depending what shops you're using.

THANKS you!! So bassicly i should give more money to a gpu. I will get the i5 instaed isnt it better than the amd. I know thatt with amd you get more for budget.

If you're going with a 4670k + z87 mobo, it'd cost ~$130 more...

vs

Btw, corrections to the link for Amazon: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2gskW

The build pushes your budget as is and going with the i5 would mean to skimp elsewhere. Things are quite tight as is.

That links doesn't work. On RAM, 8gigs (2x4/1x8) is enough for gaming and basic 3d stuff. You can add more later but for now I don't thing its needed.
