    Computer Upgrade - Around 900-1000EUR

    Current parts:
    AMD Phenom 2 x4 955
    Random cheap motherboard
    HD6850
    400w PSU
    4gb RAM

    Those are the parts I want to upgrade anyway, other than that I've got an Antec Three Hundred case, 1 320gb HDD, 1 120gb SSD and 1 2tb WD Green HDD.

    I don't really game so much anymore, so I don't really want to focus everything on the graphics card. I mostly work with heavy load programs so a good CPU and lots of RAM would be good.

    I run 2 monitors on 1920x1080, and I'd also like the option to purchase another monitor at a future date, so the graphics card should support that.

    I'm looking for places that ship to Sweden.

    Also, I'm currently thinking something like;
    Gigabyte GA-B85-HD3 ATX
    Kingston 16GB (2x8GB) CL10 1600MHz HyperX blu
    Intel Core i7 4770K 3.5 GHz (Haswell)
    MSI Radeon R9 280X 3GB
    Corsair CX 600M 80+ Bronze Modular

    This pretty much hits right about 900 EUR, atleast from swedish stores. I might be able to find it cheaper somewhere else though.

    Any thoughts?

    Your motherboard should be Z87 which supports overclocking which the 4770(k) is intended to do. If you have no need to overclock then get the 4770 which cost 200 kr less.

    Modified build.

    I'm thinking I'll overclock it a little atleast. Maybe 4.3-4.5ghz in the future. Got a Z87 board and the 4770k. Going with the stock cooler for now but I'll get a new one when i feel like overclocking is a good idea. Thanks
