building a gaming pc

[alehan]

Hi everybody I need help to build a gaming pc and my budget is 500 €

 

[wolfeking]

If memory holds, that is 500 euro, yes? If so, then what nation are you in?

500 euro is 650ish USD, so preliminary list is:
Core i3 or FX6300
z77x-UD3H or 990FXA-UD3
8GB DDR3-1866 (or if that is too expensive, then DDR3-1600)
HD7850 or HD7870
case
CX600, or ZT650 depending on price
DVD drive
OS.


and you are done.

Thanks wolfeking and heku.
As case I have been thinking about CoolerMaster Elite 430

 

[Heku]

atleast the Airflow on that case is good, and i think everything should fit in there!
