You can post a broken link, or PM me and I'll post it for you.

What kind of games do you play, what's your color scheme and what resolution do you game at?

Digital Solitude

That's what I'd recommend for you, better CPU, weaker cooler but you won't need a stronger one for gaming anyways. 8gb RAM too, add 16gb if you want, but buy 2x8gb sticks. No need for 16gb gaming though. Kinda kept to the colours. Left over €200 for a decent case and keyboard mouse bundle. Don't get a €30 set with this budget. Also got an SSD in.

kayne95

any case you would recommend ?

kayne95

that graphics card looks beast i hate to picky but can you get in in blue it would match up well with the pc mate you linked above

Digital Solitude

I'm no case expert now, Lian Li have a few nice ones, expensive though. Antec, Cooler Master, Nanoxia are all good too, mainly black though. Doubt you'd find a 970 in Blue

kayne95

or maybe a red pc mate

MSI see to do Blues, I'll have a look

kayne95

cool thanks heres the case i had on parts list "Raidmax Vampire ATX Full Tower Case" it would look awesome with a white and blue theme

Closest to blue or pure white I can see.

Red Ram and board

kayne95

wow the red looks mean on the raam sorry for making your life more difficult i just would like a set amount of colours throughout the pc not all random red blues and green

Digital Solitude

No worries mate, takes about 2 minutes to check it out. You can see **** all of the pc anyways, RAM and graphics stand parallel to you looking in so you only see the top edges anyways

kayne95

ah okay well whatever you think will look nice together i will take your word for it

Digital Solitude

Your money lad. If you go red ram and board, a nice black/red case for about 80 gives you a mechanical keyboard and a middling mouse. Don't need to splash any more on a case imo. http://www.reddit.com/r/microsoftsoftwareswap/comments/2zmufy/hwindows_788181_noffice_20102013all_other/

Thats a windows link for 25 euro

kayne95

i already have an razor orbweaver game pad and a mionix gaming mouse so i wont need to spend much on accessories

Digital Solitude

You're near sorted then so, make sure you review any cases, they're not all equal for keeping your parts cool

kayne95

okay will do i am selling my laptop its a fairly decent laptop hp envy 12gb ram i7 proccessor nvidia gt 740m 1tb hard drive only a year old know anyone that might want it open to offers

kayne95

oh and it has finger print scanner on it aswel as beats sound system in it

Digital Solitude

You can't sell on boards, should be easy to sell on Adverts or DoneDeal

kayne95

what would be a reasonable price to expect

Digital Solitude

Not a notion, might ask on the laptop forum

kayne95

Okay well let me know thanks
