my budget is around 800 - 1000 and before i fill it out is there a financing option? pay monthly?

BloodBath

Not from where I was going to order from. Well they do financing but I think it's for German customers only.

murphy20

oh i think i know the sight the only payment is bank transfer tho i think :eek:

BloodBath

You will get shafted on prices and most likely financing options from online retailers. If you are working you could most likely get a short term loan from your bank.

I've had 12 month small interest free loans from my bank before. That was ages ago though. I don't know where they stand on loans these days.

BloodBath

Overkill on a lot of parts.

You don't need a 3770k, a 3570k would be perform the same in games.

You don't need 16gb of ram. I'm sure the mainboard is probably overkill as well.

How much is it for all of that?

murphy20

its 1600 euro .. but what do you mean by overkill tho? what changes do you think i should make i want a very good one for arma
