You can do much better.

Change:

Motherboard to this http://www.ox.ee/est/product/431861
Power supply to this http://www.ox.ee/est/product/333442
Video card to this http://www.ox.ee/est/product/385798 or this http://www.ox.ee/est/product/351433 - 6870 is faster but 6850 is cheaper, both are better than a 550 Ti

Get rid of the sound card.

Should still be in budget but would be a much better build. :)

Reviewing this right now, but why get rid of the sound card? i know very little about computers, so what do you actually need the sound card for :D?
 
You don't need one, that's why I'd recommend you get rid of it and put the money towards a better motherboard and graphics card. :) The onboard sound on that Gigabyte board would be absolutely adequate.

Alright thanks for your response, but do they fit in the case :)?
 
No problems! :)

Any other thing, the 2500K is an awesome processor (I have one myself), but the 3570K is newer so it may be worth getting one of those, you wouldn't need to get another board or anything else, just the 3570K. The 2500K will still be awesome though.
 
Yeah the TX3 it comes with is certainly a lot better than the stock Intel cooler which the 3570K usually comes with. You'd be able to overclock your 3570K with that cooler.

Where in Europe are you?

Alright changing it to that then :) Thanks man :),

I live in estonia. Most of the people don't know that country, it's south of Finland, north of Latvia, west of russia :D.
 
Ah thought you were in Estonia, Google kept wanting to translate your links from Estonian to English for me! ;)
 
Just realised the PSU you originally wanted was better than the one I recommended! If you haven't ordered anything yet, keep the PSU you were originally looking at and get a 6870 to go with it. 700W is overkill but that unit you were looking at is the better than the one I recommended!

Sorry about that.

Oh, thanks, haven't ordered yet, i will need more power if i overclock :)
 
Well you won't need much more power but that 700W unit should last you a long while.

Yeah sorry I just looked at the name originally without clicking on the link and saw "GAMING POWER SUPPLY" and I thought "it's gonna be a bad one" so I told you get the CX 600, but I only saw last night it was actually a GS 700 from Corsair.

Anyway, it's a good unit, even if it is a little overkill. :)
