| Pentium:
That build is absolutely terrible; 8 year old processor, tons of pointless expansion cards and unbalanced AF. Give me some stores that you can buy parts from and I'll put something together. |

Also his budget is €800 --- End quote --- Also do not, do not use that much of an overkill PSU I would not exceed 500w for this build, scrap the sound card, scrap the RJ-45 nic. Use the money saved from those components to buy a better CPU. The 970 is going to bottleneck that piece of crap to infinity and as is it wouldnt boot. You need RAM. You can get a decent I3 for not much more and a lga 1150 motherboard and 8gigs of ddr3 to match. This is also not necessary but I would go with and 960 then get an i5 aswell. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819117447 - i3 CPU http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130731&cm_re=lga_1150-_-13-130-731-_-Product -Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231567&cm_re=8gb_ddr3-_-20-231-567-_-Product -RAM |

I would rather a 960 and an i5 haswell, or ask your friend if he's ok with saving a little bit more money so he can get an 970. |
