I went a little over budget in two ways: i) I went for a good looking white and clear build as you mentioned you wanted a moddable build. (ii) I used amazon, you can save by using the german sites - Amazon is just dead handy for part picking for me and the service is great.

So 1.389,21 gets you:


Samsung 950 PRO NVMe M.2 256 GB Solid State Drive - Black
Asus NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 - DUAL-GTX1060-6G 6 GB GDDR5 Memory 192 Bit 8008 MHz PCI Express 3 Graphics Card
Corsair CMK16GX4M2B3200C16W Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4 3200 MHz XMP 2.0 High Performance Desktop Memory Kit - White
WD 1TB Desktop SATA Hard Drive - Caviar Blue
BitFenix 45cm 6-Pin PCIe Extension Cable - Sleeved White/Black
BitFenix 30cm 24-Pin ATX Extension Cable - Sleeved White/Black
BitFenix 45cm 8-Pin EPS12V Extension Cable - Sleeved White/Black
EVGA 600 W 80+ PC Power Supply Unit
DEEPCOOL CAPTAIN240 Visible Cooling Liquid Water Cooling Liquid Cooler 240mm Radiator Two Quiet Fans
Intel BX80662I56600K Core i5-6600K LGA1151 3.5 - 3.9 GHz CPU
MSI Z170A KRAIT GAMING 3X Intel Z170 S 1151 DDR4 USB 3.1 A+C ATX
Thermaltake Core P5 Mid Tower ATX Case

All the components are white or have white highlights. An MSI Titanium mainboard would be better but waaaay more expensive. The case is very personal taste. It's a goldfish tank imho but it just shows what can be done.

I stress that if you focus less on aesthetics you can get a much better system, easily squeezing in a 1070, but others will do that for you

You've managed to spec out a very impressive build, but it's a little much for someone asking for no overclocking and "gaming and movies" as the use case. No need to clutter the build with nice sleeved cables, that's for enthusiasts only, and even then a minority
Not bashing the build, just point out that it's a little excessive

i5 6500
B150 mobo
2x 8gb 2133MHz DDR4
RX480 4gb / GTX1060 (either are excellent)
500W 80+ PSU
250GB SSD (M.2 is nice if the mobo supports it, but standard SATA is also just fine)
1TB HDD

Monitor, see this thread: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057620958

The first build is just, wow.. Out of my budget and very impressive
As i said i won't be doing the overclocking because i have never done it before.
I would like to make it nice and pretty but on a budget so i need good looking case and the rest will come later.
I would like to run new games on good graphic settings and good details as well games i would be playing would be new battlefield one, world of tanks, league of legends...
Now, i need a monitor as well so will i go for ips screen or something curved? Recommendations please

Eoins build is very solid, for the monitor I would suggest looking at the AOC G2460PF.

There's not really any point in overclocking anymore tbh. CPUs you're getting about 10% if you're lucky and have extra cost in cooling, GPUs overclock themselves.

On monitors it's really down to you. IPS panels are great but are slower than TN panels. On a budget I'd probably go with a good TN rather than a meh IPS for gaming. 27" gaming panels are pretty good value these days, they'd be 2560 x 1440p. You'd never get me off 21:9 ultrawide though now! So you might want to look at a 29" 2560x1080p set up. Bear in mind not all games support 21:9 but most do.

You can't really do pretty on a budget (although beauty is in the eye of the beholder). I'd personally pitch it at a level of making it look as good as you can for the given budget. You can't really add 'pretty' at a later date as you need to match everything up. You can add 'bling' but you might aswell do that at the start. Nice sleeved cables and a non-modular PSU isn't much different in price from a modular PSU then it's just a few LED strips.

Cases you'd really need to decide yourself. Personally I think the Air 240 is a great looking case and you can build a nice looking system in one with ease. Post up some links to cases you like and someone can chuck a build in it for you. They're only one of three standard sizes any way and everything will fit into an ATX case. Personally I think ATX is way too big these days though.

On the case side I'd like something smaller like mATX, carbide spec-m2 or Phanteks Enthoo Evolv

Well, the B150M chipset in mATX mobos are pretty good and cheap, usually around €75.

Leaves you with plenty of change for a monitor.

You can also go for AMD RX 470 OC // RX 480 and pair it with a Freesync monitor.

Don't skimp on the PSU for such a powerful machine.

Go with this Seasonic.

I would advise to order the monitor & case from Amazon UK/DE to save on shipping & for the after-sales support.
