    New game pc build :)

    Hello people,

    So after a while I decided that I want a new computer since this one hasn't been touched in like 7 years or something like that.
    That means i can't reuse any of my pc parts unfortunately. With my new computer I want to stream every now and then.
    Games i want to play are WoW, D3, Wildstar, PoE, Smite, BF4 and Titanfall.

    Budget: €800-950 max
    Resolution: 1920-1080
    Games / Settings Desired: As high as possible while streaming or just playing for fun.
    Any other intensive software or special things you do (Frequent video encoding, 3D modeling, etc)
    Country: Netherlands
    Parts that can be reused: No
    Do you need an OS?: No
    Do you need peripherals (e.g. monitor, mouse, keyboard, speakers, etc): No

    I made a setup online I have no idea if it fits/works together but like to hear from you if I need some adjustments or get parts from other sites.
    If the link doesn't work the specs are below I took all the parts from that site and i've used the german version since i can see how much it costs in euro's

    There were a few problems with your setup. This would work better together and also perform better.

    I didn't touch the cooler, since I'm not as familiar with those (and hopefully someone else can chime in on a better one. H60? H65?)

    Also... I'm not sure if you're aware or not that the case you picked... isn't a case. It's a test bench setup. Those aren't really designed for normal operation.

    Differences:

    The CPU you chose is overclockable, but the motherboard you chose does not support it. Options are to get either A.) an i3 4340 or B.) a Z87 motherboard. I chose to change the motherboard to a Z87 to support overclocking in the future if you decide.

    The CPU cooler you chose is a great cooler, but does not fit this budget. I would stick with the entry level (but still solid) Hyper 212 EVO. You can always upgrade this later on if you want an agressive overclock.

    The SSD you chose is more expensive and less reliable than the 840 EVO.

    By dropping the Closed loop water cooler, we were able to upgrade to a GTX760. This is really the sweet spot in graphics cards at the moment.

    Went with a much more simple case. The test bench you chose is more for testing / benchmarking new rigs, not for building a computer. If you don't like the one I chose, there are several others I could recommend. I kept it simple for budget reasons.

    I went with a slightly smaller PSU from a better brand. 750W is complete overkill, and while fully modular is nice, semi modular is almost as good.

    I think the build I went with is going to be about perfect for your budget. I'm sure others will be able to chime in on improvements, but I would be confident with this build.
    CPU: Intel i7 3770K Mobo: Asus P8Z77-V PRO GPU: 2X Asus GTX 770 OC SLI Heatsink: Hyper 212 EVO RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x8GB 1600mhz SSD: 120Gb Samsung 840 EVO HDD: WD 2tb Caviar Black PSU: Corsair HX850 Case: CM HAF 932 Advanced

    To add to the above build(s). The new Z97 motherboards are out, even tho i cant see them in partpicker Deutschland. For example i know that the Asus Z97-K is around 120Euros and fits the budget.

    Also i would swap lordsphinx's ram to low profile ram so you dont have problems with clearance from CM Hyper Evo cpu cooler.
