I'm kinda looking for one that's built already and also can you tell me a good mointor as well that is 200 euro under

Serephucus

I'd really look into building it yourself. There are tonnes of videos online, it's not that hard, and it makes your life a lot easier down the line if you have problems.

Also, you can get decent monitors for half that. I'd advise getting a €100 monitor, and putting the extra money into the machine instead. A 120GB SSD for example would be great.

What would i need i'd like to spend 550 Euro Can you list the items!!? Also what is a good mouse and keyboard? I dont want to pay lots of money on them

thanks

Something like this would be decent enough for a tad under 550 delivered.

You would have the option overclock the FX6300 at some stage but it should do you just fine at stock for now, and even if you never intend to overclock it probably still the best CPU fit for your target budget.

Soryy I don't understand the bolder bit? I haven't used all the parts before apart from the HDD and put together the a build using the FX6300 and Pro3 for someone else, but I went straight from a 965BE to an i5-2500K myself. Everything else is based off decent reviews except the RAM with is there because it is the cheapest DDR3 1600 on HWVS .

Serephucus

Well, it's got 8GB of RAM, 1000GB of hard drive space, and 2GB of graphics memory. Most of that doesn't mean anything in terms of performance though.

Will the PSU supply sufficient power? Just noticed that HW recommends 500w for the video card ...

Yeah be loads, even for a bit of overclocking.

They say more to cover themselves, and of course to make you buy a more expensive psu.....

Power consumption at load should peak at about 300w or a tad over for the whole system

So many things will change between now and summer.Come back when you have the cash

RossieMan

what budget have you now? this moment in time.

no point saying you'll have (x) down the the line. impossible to spec a build, you're just wasting these lads time.
