Budget PC Build

Hardware Hub Build a PC
1

Hello guys!
I'm a new member of the forums and I need some help with a PC build!
I am currently using a HP G62 Notebook (It's sucks, seriously) but I want to upgrade to something more... substantial.
What I was thinking of was something like this :
Motherboard: MSI 970A-G43 AMD 970 ATX Motherboard.
CPU: AMD FX-4300 Black Edition 4 Core ( I would have went with the more powerful, 6 core version, the FX-6300 but it doesn't ship to my country, Ireland :( )
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper Evo 212 ( Most people use this for budget and 1k+ builds, and I thought I should join the bandwagon. It's cheap, it works, and has some great reviews on amazon)
RAM: Corsair Vengeance (4x2gb Sticks) Again, cheap it works, and works, not much else to say.
Hard Drive: WD 1TB 3.5 inch Internal Hard Drive - Caviar Blue, I was thinking of getting an SSD with this build, but decided that it wouldn't be possible with my $500 Budget, but the reviews on this piece of hardware is good enough for now. (Cheap, and great reviews, also great storage space.)
GPU: Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti Graphics Card. Very respectable card with good specs and is cheap, good reviews online and can run the games that I want it to run.
PSU: Corsair Builder Series CXM 500W Power Supply Bronze. Corsair seems to produce quality PSU's often, and this one is no different, it's 500W capacity will surely meet my needs, and is good for the price.
Operating System: Windows 8.1. This is the cheapest of the Operating Systems and I can upgrade to Windows 10 if I want that.
Case: My friend will be graciously donating me his old BitFenix Comrade, so yeh :D

That is basically the build, please give me feedback on what I should/shouldn't change in it.
Thanks for reading and goodbye.

-Budget= around 500-600euro
-Region= EU, Ireland Euro
-Amazon preferably, just because they are trustworthy
-I already have a mouse, I don't plan on getting a new keyboard, but I might -get a headset later on (Some crappy cheap one)
-Gaming mostly.
-No, I don't OC, I'm new to the PC world, but I might overclock in the future.
-No, no water-cooling.
-Yeah, already included above.

-I want to play at max or atleast high in some games, with average FPS, playable FPS that is tolerable and, preferably, smooth.
-1080p I suppose.
-I play some MC ( No hating now kids ;) , I want to get into CS:GO and the BF series, that's basically it.)

  • I don't really mind what keyboard, as I haven't experimented with many types.
    -I use Palm grip, but it use whatever is comfortable really.
    -FPS I s'pose.
    -Cheap and probably atleast 21'', that's basically it.

Answer the Qs here:

3

4460+390 should be set
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/z48ZTW

Dunno about your exchange rate over there though.

4

That build is around 700euro, which is out of my price range

5

So your budget is
435.73 British Pound
?

6

Yes, around that.
435.73=€599

Swapped the CPU for an 860k, bit over budget, but it might be worth saving up a bit more to get the 390 with it's 8gbs of VRAM and all that, about 70 pounds more or so, though you'd more of a CPU bottleneck with that over the build below, though if you upgrade your CPU in the future(2016) you'll be better off on the GPU side having spent your money now.

Otherwise here's this at budget, you could get a lesser GPU and swap in the i5 4460, but given that skylake 2.0 and zen are coming next year, the better GPU should be good for now, the 860k is only going to bottleneck in CPU heavy games, and you can always overclock it a bit with an aftermarket cooler later.

950 review with some 380 benchmarks in it

I'd go with the 860k, drop the aftermarket cooler and dvd drive (find a memory stick and image the windows disk to it using another machine with an optical drive, heck, go to a library if you've not one handy), swap the RAM for something much less pricey, then pump the savings into the GPU.

Thanks for the help guys!
I'll redo my build and see what I can do.
