Custom build PC

[suprastyle]

Hello all!

I just want your suggestions on this build.
And case.

My budget is around 550€. Components above would cost around 540€. There is no need for HDD because I alredy own new one.

You don't say what you're going to use it for, but generally an Intel processor is a better choice.

I'd be dubious about spending that little on a cooler, you may well find that it's no better than the cooler included with the processor.

You can frequently find faster memory for the same price these days.

The Xigmatek website is down but searching for the link suggests that's the Asgard II case. It looks like a standard ATX Tower, are the front ports USB3?

What are you planning to use the PC for? And if it's primarily gaming, what sort of games will you be playing?

[Bonebreaker777]

Where are you based or where do you live as you list prices in €. Ireland? < can't see in my current position...reason for asking is that other countries may have other, more local shops for purchase where the prices may differ.

I am living in Slovenia. I am going to use PC for standard gaming, Heroes of the Storm and World of Tanks.

[Bonebreaker777]

Any decision of where you are getting the parts from? Native IT site in Slovenia or delivered from UK?

I do not think for Heroes of the Storm and World of Tanks you will need anything stronger, it seems to be fine,
however remember that series of gtx below 9xx will nit run direct X 12 so you will rather not play upcoming titles on high settings.
As Bonebreaker above mentioned in general Intel processors are better, but also more expensive if you will not run any virtual machines or do other virtualiztion you do not really need Intel, AMD is good solution for tight budget builds,

[me-yeah]

AMD can run virtual machines, you just need to enable it in the motherboard bios, a ga-990fxa ud5 or ud3 would be alot better then a 970 chipset

you will be able to buy a better cpu, the 970 stops with a beta bios with the fx 8s
