    New PC for gaming&stuff

    Hey,
    my Laptop (MSI GT725) is struggling "a bit" with newer Games and even WoW seems to be a bit too much
    I hope you can help me out with picking some decent components, not really sure whats good and whats.. meh

    Budget: ~1000-1200€
    Resolution: 1080p, 27"
    Games: mostly WoW, Dota2, PoE (on a new PC )
    Country: Germany
    Parts that can be reused: HDD (2TB)
    OS: will be using Win 7
    Store: alternate.de or amazon

    I'm sometimes studying right next to my pc/laptop, so low idle noise is something that really matters.

    Thanks in advance

    Motherboard: Asus Z87-A ATX LGA1150 Motherboard (€131.66 @ Amazon Deutschland)
    Memory: G.Skill Ares Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory (€80.09 @ Amazon Deutschland)
    Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB 2.5" Solid State Disk (€149.99 @ Amazon Deutschland)

    Optical Drive: LG GH24NS95 DVD/CD Writer (€15.70 @ Amazon Deutschland)
    Total: €1031.88

    CPU: Placeholder, get i5-4670k instead (~200€, not listed in german pcpartpicker)
    Heatsink: Placeholder. Depending on your overclocking intentions. If you do not plan to oc much (e.g. 4.0 - 4.2 GHz max), then get something like Coolermaster Hyper 212 EVO or Xigmatek Gaia (~30€). If you want a bit more, get a high-end air cooler (Noctua NH-D14, BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 2) or closed loop water cooler (Corsair H80i/H100i, NZXT Kraken X40/X60)
    GPU: Placeholder, look for the Radeon R9 280X. Should be available for roughly the same price (and is a little bit faster). Preferred brands: MSI, Asus, Gigabyte. E.g. http://www.amazon.de/GIGABYTE-3072MB...dp/B00FSC5BNG/
    Case: If you do not care for a very quiet computer, then get the Fractal Arc Midi R2 instead (similar price/layout but better for larger water coolers).
    Why do something simple, when there is a complicated way?
    Ryzen 7 2700X | BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 4 | 16GB DDR4-3200 | MSI X470 Gaming Pro | MSI GTX 1070 Gaming X 8G | 500GB / 750GB Crucial SSD
    Fractal Define C | LG 32UK550 | Das Model S Professional Silent | CM Storm Xornet
