Excellent. Just make sure you get it with the 760.

Now, this is a quote from PC Specialist:

Ok, it's not Intel Core I know, but it's still a very good CPU, but...better graphics than the 760 !! ...

Not a bad price at all....?

I would change the psu to the txm650. The vx 550 is the lower end unit.

Not bad at all. Looks a good build. :good:

 

[Tobias Rieper]

Thanks

I've just ordered it.

I did decide to go with the ASUS® SABERTOOTH Z87 motherboard instead

Can't wait.

Why? If you don't know enough about computers to build your own, you don't need three extra features on the sabertooth.

Hello Tobias.
i might be a little late... but still, i know it's 'scary' to build computer for first time, i did it a couple years ago.
Didn't even know if i had everything connected right etc. but when the pc came on and run normally, you should know that feeling!
and it isn't as hard is it sounds! but after you've built your first computer, you'll enjoy the experience you got and can in the future build computers from separate parts and save money!

PS. dat build looks awsum, and you don't have to change parts in a while.

Cheers, and hopefully you'll get everything working!
