Budget?

More ram, at least a z board (z87/z97).

Do you already own this or is it a proposed build?
 
it si just a proposed build and my budget is about 1200(its about what these parts cost in finland atm)
And im way too much of a noob to know what a z-board is:(
you think 8G RAM is not enough? should i get 16?
Thanks for answering!:)
 
You've only got 4GB in your first post for RAM. You want at least 8GB. The board you have is ok but a better board is probably a good idea, especially if you plan to overclock ever.

Rest looks fine, although I'd get a different PSU. Corsair CX600 is cheap and good.
 
oh sorry i forgot to type 4Gx2 RAM, got any suggestions for the motherboard?

Thank you very mutch for answering!(im so lost with all these components, i built my last pc in 2007 and the knowlage from back then equals sh*t now):P

I agree with c4c the i7 4770k is still one of the best quad cores for gaming. As for the differences in performance on games you would see a less than 5fps difference between cpu's. On rendering there may be a more 10% difference as it tends to use most of if not all cpu power.
