One more thing Desmond, if you were in europe where would you order everything?
And do you think that I should get a free version of windows 7 or buy it?..

Free version of windows 7? And I would get windows 8. Novatech and overclockers.co.uk are good places to buy stuff.
 
Dude do you think that if I order from neweg will there be any problem?
Because the shipping is free and on the uk ones when I put pounds to euros it goes over the neweg total price..
 
Ahh... no, I wouldn't. For $100 you get a OS you never have to worry about or anything. Especially when you are already spending $900, and as is said get windows 8. And newegg doesn't ship to Europe.

Depends where in Europe you are. If in the UK, I recommend Novatech personally, since that's where I buy my stuff from. Overclockers is also good.

And since discussing the use of pirated software is against the forum rules, I would stop going on about pirating 7.
 
Im in Portugal so I think there is no online shop to do that on this side..
Spirit, I've checked those uk sites but after the total it comes up to my expectations. If you know any site that is more cheaper or more inside europe, be my guest

Sorry for the Windows 7 issue Im gonna stay true to it and buy the os..

Just get the stuff in the build above, however I'd get a 600W or 650W PSU for a 7870. 500W is cutting it a bit short for a 7870, and it's always good to have some headroom.

Here are the parts on Novatech:

UP4-TH: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/...5z77chipset/atxformfactor/ga-z77x-up4-th.html (since Novatech don't seem to stock the UD3H).

3570K: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/...ncorei3,i5andi71155socket/bx80637i53570k.html

Hard drive: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/harddrives-internal/sata1tbto1.5tb/st1000dm003.html

HD 7870: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/...aphicscards/amdhd7870series/fx-787a-cnfc.html

RAM: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/...dr3-pc3-12800/1600mhz/f3-12800cl9d-8gbxl.html

Corsair 300R: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/cases/cc-9011014-ww.html

Power supply: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/components/powersupplies/cp-9020060-uk.html

That's £736.88 for the components (excluding your OS and your perpiherals).

Windows 7 Home x64: http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/software/operatingsystems/gfc-02050.html

Or if you'd prefer Windows 8 Pro x64 you can buy it from here http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/software/operatingsystems/fqc-05955.html

I've used both 7 and 8 a lot and both are great operating systems. Whichever you pick you will be happy with I think. For Windows 7, Home Premium is enough so long as you don't plan on going over 16GB of RAM, but for Windows 8 I'd always recommend Pro.

If you want my suggestion for a mouse, then the Logitech G400 and G500 are great mice and are affordable. I've been using my G400 for over a year and it's a great mouse. The G500 has removable weights and is not much more expensive http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/peripherals/miceandtrackballs/gaming/910-001262.html I would personally stick to wired mice and keyboards over wireless because you don't have to rely on batteries and they respond a bit faster.

I don't really know a lot about keyboards but I'll go with the keyboard PCunicorn recommend: the Sidewinder X4 http://www.novatech.co.uk/products/peripherals/keyboards/gaming/jqd-00006.html

If you're not in the UK, then Novatech do ship to other European countries. See information on this here http://www.novatech.co.uk/deliveryeurope.html

Hopefully this all helps. :)
 
Sorry Okedokey.
And thanks Spirit and PcUnicorn I've been talking with my friends and the said that is really good :D thanks.
Now time to order thanks :cool:

Still it goes over the 1000 euros..
