Rate/improve/cheapen my first build please

This build will be pretty much exclusively for fast paced fps games, with a small amount of Internet use. Games include tf2, l4d2, payday1+2 and some more demanding on graphics.

CPU: AMD fx-6300 €98.40
MB: ?
GPU: GeForce gtx760 2gb €230.88
RAM: Corsair vengeance 8gb(2x4) DDR3 1600 cl9 €74.67
HD: wd blue 1tb €51.27
POWER: seasonic s12ii 620w €64.47
MONITOR: benQ rl2445hm €179
CASE: corsair carbide 300r windowed €83.19
Total: 780.88
All off hardwareversand.de, without reduction or delivery

So as you can see I need a motherboard and I really need it to be in the 70-80€ range if possible
Do I need a CPU cooler?
Will this be a loud unit?
Will I need extra fans?
I will be buying an ssd to go with this build pretty soon, just can't afford it right now.

Also I need a wireless card I think, I assume I need it to be able to connect to wifi?
And do I need a sound card to use a mic?

I'd really appreciate any help you could give me, especially if it will reduce the price. Things I'm pretty decided on getting are monitor and power supply but still open to suggestions. Thanks.

Its not too bad currently to be honest the only real places you could save significant money on would be a cheaper case (The non window 300r version is €65) and monitor, as it seems pretty expensive for a 24" TN panel.

A 500W PSU would be fine and save a few quid.

The Pro3 motherboard would be ok for doing a little overclocking of the FX 6300.

Slightly better would be either of the below but they are both out of stock.

Also out of stock but thiswould a decent cooler, can probably pickup on amazon for similar price.

Did you use discount site. Pretty sure 760 comes out at 217. MSI oc one.

You can pick up the ram for 62 -64 g skill or team group elite ram 1600.

Nah haven't taken any discounts into account yet.





More suggestions on mb anyone, really having a tough time getting one. Guess I can push it up to 100? Would like a bit of oc on it, won't be doing much though

Ok so here's the mobo I have my eyes on, only thing stopping me buying is this incompatibility:


Potential Issues/Incompatibilities
Some AMD 970 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Vishera CPUs.
(Flag issues/incompatibilities as incorrect.)


Is this a big issue? Hard to get around?

Ordered the MSI 760 Frozr only a few days ago and with the reduction it is now 224euro, not 217euro anymore.
