Gamer PC build for 1000$ 2014

Hardware Hub Build a PC
1

Hello everyone.

I am going to build a PC for my cousin. He gave me a budget of 1000CHF +/- 100CHF.

He is only in to gaming so no Editing/CAD-work station. I already made a list of all the parts I think will be good priced and got a lot of bang.

As the parts are almost the same Price or even cheaper I think $=CHF almost

I did my list in a swiss store and on PCpartpicker

Digitec

PCpartpicker (the case is not the same, i couldn't find the case)

My cousin loves Skyrim moded so I took a GPU with 3GB Vram. He is not going to upgrade his system a lot, maybe in 2 years a new GPU or so but no CPU changes, he is not going to over clock, but as the K version is only about 20$ more it doesn't matter and maybe I'll over clock it a tiny bit, when I set up the system.

No need for a K-skew CPU if you're not overclocking(board is H87 anyway; so multiplier is locked even with a K CPU)

SSDNow is a lot slower than other SSDs, due to the use of asynchronous flash.

1TB is really only a couple of bucks more...
