    can you use windows 10 until you get enough money together for a paid OS? Windows 10 will be free until 3rd quarter of 2015 i believe. Thats about 70 euro that i would pump straight into the CPU. Dayz is CPU intensive, currently i am getting between 20 - 25 fps in cities and 30 - 40 outside. This is far from ideal, in the new year i will be upgrading to an intel 7 but that's just because i don't want to have to spend more money next Christmas. If im honest, the fx 6300 was ok for me with a budget build but if i could choose, i wouldn't pick it again.

    You say you dont need a monitor? I have a 22 inch and its fine for my needs at the moment.

    I will spec a build if i can now shortly once i get updated info. Sterling Archer, if he comes along can help you best.

    Which website did you use to get your prices?

    i used hardwareversand to get the prices

    ran through https://geizhals.de to get a 7 - 10 % discount? how about dropping the windows OS for the moment and the screen is needed or not?

    i ran it threw that website for the €620 and the screen is not needed, but i would like to have the os, but i can do without it if needs be

    the build you have will work as far as i can tell, better than consoles a damn sight, but you may find yourself in my predicament this time next year, putting more money in.

    Saving 88 euro on windows now means a better CPU, much better.

    It also means a new MOBO: http://www.hardwareversand.de/en/DDR3/151626/ASRock+Fatal1ty+B85+Killer%2C+Sockel+1150%2C+ATX.article

    Unless im wrong, this should prove a lot better performance wise, shouldnt be much more expensive than what you had down already. Remember, Windows 10 is free to download at the moment
