    Some questions about my new build

    Hey,

    1. Is a "Samsung EVO 250Gb" SSD for 87 Euros a better buy than "Crucial BX200 240GB" for 65 Euros?

    2. Which Case would you recommend between "Corsair Carbide 100R Window Edition" OR Fractal Design Core 2500?
    a. OR would you recommend paying slightly more for a case.

    3. Anything to comment on my build? (cant link)

    CPU - Intel Core i5-6600K 3,5Ghz
    GPU - Sapphire Radeon RX 470 NITRO+
    RAM - Crucial Ballistix Sport LT DDR4 2x8GB
    PSU - EVGA 500W White
    HDD - Toshiba P300 HDWD110EZSTA 1TB
    Heatsink - Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo CPU Kjøler
    Motherboard - MSI Z170A PC MATE, Socket-1151
    Case - Corsair Carbide 100R Window Edition



    I want to buy my parts from either netonnet.no OR komplett.no - So other suggestions needs to be found from there.

    1. Yes. If your budget doesnt allow EVO 850 you can get OCZ Trion 150 or Corsair Force LE, it's considerably better than BX200 for around the same price.
    2. None.
    a. Yes.
    3. Mobo to this.
    PSU to this.
    HDD to this.
    For cases I'd look into these 3:

    https://www.komplett.no/product/8764...s-eclipse-p400
    https://www.komplett.no/product/8764...s-enthoo-pro-m

    There is also NZXT S340 if you can find it for the same price or cheaper than P400 (those two are very close).

    I like both Samsungs and Crucials. People have complained about the "BX200" line (The MX200/MX300 are great) but I haven't seen any real world problems, just issues with synthetic benchmarks. I have built a number of computers with BX200s and nobody has had any issues

    That Mobo isnt in stock before the 23. and i want to order today. What would you recommend instead? Any followup, why is it that you is recommending away from the mobo i have already selected?

    1. the EVO is a line of SSD with out the series number like 840, 850 950 etc I can't really suggest a yes or not as the Crucial BX200 240GB does actually have respectable IOP's for its price point. that said you have an M.2 port on that MoBo so gettign an m.2 SSD thats compatible would be a good idea.

    2. get a case that will fit your needs, parts, and taste.

    3. if you'r going to go budget on a GPU get ATLEAST the RX 480.
    PC: CPU - i7-4790K, MoBo - MSI Z97 gaming 5, Memory - 16G Corsair vengeance LPX DDR3, GPU - EVGA 970 FTW edition, Storage- 1x Sandisk X400 M.2 512GB, 1X WD blue 1TB HDD, 1x WD green 1TB HDD, PSU - EVGA 550W 80+ bronze.

    The RX 470 is fine for him, as it nearly performs the same as a RX 480.

    Go with your current one, seems to the best option around that price. Recommending away because the other one is more feature packed.

    Considering the difference between RX 470 8GB and RX 480 latter is a waste of money. Also, if you can afford RX 480 most of the time you can afford GTX 1060, which would be a lot better pick (especially for Blizzard games).

    Looks good. What about an SSD though?
