I am looking to build a desktop system I have a case (actually 3 cases not sure why people keep getting them for me for my birthday) the one I wanna use is the carbide series 200r and I have a dell E228wfp monitor(Yeah I know old as hell) I am in Ireland and would like to spend around €600 for the build as I am a masters student and well broke as hell.

 

Any suggestions would be awesome.

 

Oh I forgot I am an avid World of tanks player if that helps any.

Yes cheap, thats the idea, there is nothing overly wrong with ether the case or PSU, they are not the best ofc, but they do the job and they are cheap. Its not like they will fall apart within a month.

 

GPU price updated.
