My first gaming rig

For a laptop or desktop. If desktop, what exact model of cpu and motherboard, if for laptop, you're out of luck.
 
so, the new set up will look like this

MoBo: Gigabyte 990XA-UD3, 990X/SB950, AMD AM3+, ATX (109,-€)
CPU: AMD FX-6300, AM3+, 3.5GHz, 6-core (112,80€)
CPU cooler: Arctic Cooling Freezer Xtreme V2 (36,90€)
GPU: Gigabyte AMD RadeonR9 270X OC, 2GB DDR5, DVI/HDMI/2x MiniDP, PCI-E 3.0 (199,-€)
RAM: Kingston HyperX Blu 2x4GB, DDR3, CL9, 1600MHz (79,-€)
SSD: Kingston 60GB SSDNow (60,90€)
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 1TB (65,-€)
ODD: ASUS DRW 24-F1ST (23,-€)
Case: ThermalTake Commander USB 3.0+PSU: Corsair Builder Series CX500W 80+ BULK (70,-€)

Total price is 755,60€ (1014$, 631,11£) so I'm making 94,40€ saving of my 850€ budget
 
Definitely get a 8320 and if you can't afford it drop the CPU cooler. You can always get a CPU cooler. A CPU upgrade is harder and you lose money.
 
I've counted that the total price will be 755,60€ (saving 94,40€) so I can afford the 8320 with the AC Freezer Xtreme V2 CPU cooler
 
CX500 should be fine but I would maybe look at the CX600 if it's not much expensive, just for a bit of headroom.
 
Well, I can afford the CX600M PSU (according to my 850€ budget), listing the set up once again after some calculations
 
This is the final set up change (I don't wanna change it all the time coz it's pretty frustrating), so here it comes:

MoBo: Gigabyte GA-990XA-UD3, AMD AM3+, 990X7Sb950, DDR3, ATX (109,-€)
CPU: AMD FX-8320, AM3+, 3.5GHz, 8-core (149,-€)
CPU Cooler: AC Freezer Xtreme V2 (36,90€)
GPU: Gigabyte AMD Radeon R9 270X OC, 2GB GDDR5, DVI/HDMI/2xMini-DP, PCI-E 3.0 (199,-€)
RAM: Kingston HyperX Blu 2x4GB, 1600Mhz (79,-€)
SSD: Kingston 60GB SDDnow (60,90€)
HDD: WD Caviar Blue 1TB (65,-€)
ODD: ASUS DRW 24-F1ST (23,-€)
Case: ThermalTake Commander USB 3.0 (30,-€)
PSU: Corsair CX600M (80,-€)

Total price is 794,90€ ($ 1067, £ 663,94) and total savings are 55,10€ (£46,02, $74)
