After some tips from another forum member I did some more researching and came up with a few modifications


  • ■ Intel i5 4670K (with the Scythe Mugen 3b currently attached to my AMD X4)
    ■ [strike]Asus Z87 pro[/strike] Asrock Z87 extreme6 (I can get the Asrock for about 20€ less so...)
    ■ Gigabyte GTX 770 OC Windforce 3x 2GB
    ■ Some sort of 8GB DDR3-1866 Kit (whatever has the best value)
    ■ Fractal Design Define R4 Black Pearl
    ■ Samsung 840 EVO 120GB SSD (Based on the 1300$ Enthusiast Build on Tom's)


  • I already have the following components (plus the CPU cooler):
    ■ Xonar Essence STX (for my HD 600s)
    ■ TP Link wireless card (won't need that with the Z87 pro)
    ■ Blu-Ray drive
    ■ 1TB HDD
    ■ Be quiet Pure Power 630W

Any suggestions on how to make this better or get more bang for the buck?

Monitor: 24" (60,96cm) Asus VG Serie VG248QE - Not as good as the BenQ X240 something but it's a lot cheaper (300€ vs 370€) so it's fine with me.

Good question. I am from germany so prices here will vary but I'd say it should be in the range of 1000-1100 USD. The actual price I'm going to pay will be about 1300-1400USD but that's simply because the hardware is more expensive here.

A quick pricecheck on PC Part Picker gave me ~1000USD for my setup.
