    Here's my new €900 budget build I'll be starting on Monday. It's mainly for your typical day to day use and some moderate gaming, it's basically a full set up. I haven't got a monitor at the moment so I had to buy one and it's my first time building with an SSD, 60GB should do the job for me. All in all, I'm satisfied with it. I'm not looking for validation, just want see what other's think. What would you change or add if you had this budget, is it a good or ok build etc. Just express your thoughts, I like to see other peoples ideas and if you have any questions just ask. Thanks :)

    Oh by the way most of the components were purchased on dabs.ie, I received a free €20 voucher from them as compensation when they messed up my first order. Unfortunately after I bought these items they emailed me a deal "spend over €599, get €40 off" Seriously that kind of stuff only happens to me :rolleyes: ah well just my luck!

    Poor graphis card choice imo. Either go for the 7770 or 650 ti.

    Dabs are pretty bad value now that they don't offer free shipping. Try hardwareversand.de

    Edit - just read the post properly. I guess its okay since you had a voucher! :D

    PSU isn't the greatest. Could have gone for a lower wattage higher efficiency unit. That said, Dabs isn't the best where PSUs are concerned. Nice build otherwise though. :)

    You know what I thought the same about the PSU before I bought it but to my surprise it got good reviews, the only thing people mentioned that wasn't good was the length of the cables. :)

    I had a look at that German site, the prices are pretty good. How long do they take to delivery? Might order from them on my next build.
