    Hi, I just started building PC's and selling them on eBay. I currently have a 600 euro budget gaming PC if you are interested. I could build a higher spec PC if you want at a reasonable price. PM for details if interested.

    Yes drop the 256 SSD. Get a 120 for 80 odd. Use your SSD for your os 30-40 gigs... And the rest maybe any particular game you use the most..

    That's 100 euro off the price. You could always trim away at parts like the mobo and PSU. Maybe a 600w 66 euro and a cheaper mobo. But to be honest I like the parts you picked a lot of room for upgrading.

    Ok will change SSD. Thanks

    Get a Sansubg 840 Evo as well, cheaper than the Pro version.

    Hey sorry I didn't get back to you. You seem to be on the right track anyway. Your build is good. I don't think I'd change anything.

    As said already 120gb is plenty for the ssd. I only put windows and my non game programs on the ssd. The games run off the 1tb wd blue which is plenty fast for games.

    The sharkoon drakonia is a great mouse for the money. You can get it on Amazon if HWVS are out of stock. There is also the perixx mx-2000 which is the same mouse. You should grab the keyboard theree as well as the German layout is different. If you want a good headset grab these. If you want good 2.1 speakers grab these.
