    1k Euro Gaming PC

    Hi, so after my last pc "caught on fire" it was time for me to buy a new one.

    I am planning to use the computer mostly for playing wow, bit of league and maybe some streaming

    I only had realistically 1k euros to spend so i went with this setup, because ive heard that the cpu is very easy to overclock i was planning to overclock this to about 4.4Ghz or maybe even higher, anyone with a bit of computer know how see any potential problems. Also wondering if its worth trying to overclock the gpu, although im entirely unsure of what parameters would be safe for that.

    Intel i5-4670K 3.4GHz processor

    Intel Z87 Motherboard

    AMD Radeon HD7950, 3GB GDDR5 384bit Graphics Card

    Kingston HyperX 2x4Gt, DDR3 1600MHz, CL9-RAM

    1TB, 3.5 ", SATA3 hard drive

    Burning SATA plug-in DVD drive

    Thermalright True Spirit 90 m Processor cooler

    Cooltek Antiphon ATX Case, Black

    Silverstone 500W Power Supply

    Raising voltage on the 7950/4670 will require a higher wattage powersupply.
    7950 was purposely made for overclocking, the stock performance is pretty "meh"...

    It should handle overclocking OK, it's gonna work very hard to keep up though.
    Meaning more heat & noise.

    No chance to build yourself? That GPU is reference, meaning you wont be able to overclock it much at all.

    I would rather not as i am incredibly inexperienced when it comes to computer building (nublet i know), but aslong as it overclocks a little i think ill be happy. Its a massive upgrade over my previous PC which was a GTX 460 card and a AMD phenom II Quad core something =)

    Im also reaaaaaally at the my max budget due to not working atm so even adjusting the price by 50 euros could be a problem =)
