Here's the build:

CPU: AMD FX-8350 4.0GHZ 8-CORE BOX: http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.559642
GPU: Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD7950: http://www.you.gr/b2c_iqshop/b2c/pd.do?pg=E14DB254CD30FEF1AC0FD8D3859717C0&pa=E21C0409916F834B9F2D8CDD65838F2D
Mobo: IDK, waiting for suggestions. I dont think i will OC or crossfire/sli but maybe in the future i will
HDD:WESTERN DIGITAL WD10EZRX CAVIAR GREEN 1TB SATA3: http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.303677
WiFi adapter:TP-LINK TL-WN881ND 300MBPS WIRELESS N PCI EXPRESS ADAPTER: http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.612474
Case: COOLERMASTER RC-310-BKN1-GP ELITE 310 BLACK/BLUE: http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.806242
PSU: CORSAIR GAMING SERIES GS700 700W: http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.549984
DVD Writer: LG GH24NS95 SUPER MULTI INTERNAL 24X: http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.330697
RAM: G.SKILL F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL 8GB (2X4GB) DDR3: http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.556216
Total of 795.48 euros.

My budget is 900 euros. I wont overclock the GPU. Maybe the CPU but in a few months, if not in a year.
IDK if i should get the graphics card i mentioned above or this one because i wont OC: SAPPHIRE HD7950 VAPOR-X OC 3GB: http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.510811
Also, pls comment on the wifi adapter. Is it good? Does it have a wide range?
More importantly, which mobo should i get? And are 700w for the PSU a lot?
Im planning to use this gaming system to play games like Crisis 3, Tomb Raider, DMC Devil May Cry, League of Legends and Dota 2 and maybe stream Dota 2 and LoL. Maybe record gameplays and watch videos, browse the internet and listen to music.
Also, can you please post some good gaming keyboards for about 20-25 euros and cheap mouses?

Can someone at least help me with this? I am thinking to put this mobo in the 8350 build. I found it in the internet, and heard that it has an AM3+ socket and it works with the 8350, but here it says it has an AM3 socket, and it has a link to press and go to gigabytes site where it lists the compatible CPUs for this mobo. According to gigabytes site, 8350 is compatible...
GIGABYTE GA-970A-UD3 RETAIL
http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.526916
So, since thats what it says in the gigabyte site, i guess its compatible with the 8350??
http://www.gigabyte.com/support-downloads/cpu-support-popup.aspx?pid=3907
or is this one better?
well, at least its cheaper...
GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3 RETAIL
http://www.e-shop.gr/product?id=PER.526934
*EDIT* I heard that both of these mobos are not pcie 3.0 compatible. What does that mean? They are not compatible with the 7950?

Pfff, mods can you pls delete this thread? Its pointless if no one answers...
I will make another one instead, in which i will ask if the WiFi adapter is good and look for a mobo for the 8350.

Pretty much any generic wifi adapter will get the job done but if you want to be playing games, you should really use your motherboard's built in ethernet connector for that, it will be significantly faster and you won't run into the chance of losing your signal.
