Hello guys,

I'm wondering if you can give me some ideas for parts that I can buy for my new system.

The parts that I need:
Cpu, psu, gpu, ram, hdd, optical drive, motherboard, windows 8 or 7 and maybe a cooler.

I also need to buy a monitor but for the next few months my fairly old monitor does the job.

I'm 15 year olds and my budget is around 700 dollars.

I'm not a hardcore gamer but I am playing LoL and maybe will buy Battlefield 4 and/or FarCry 3.

Can you help me choosing pc parts?

Thanks.

Edit: I also need to buy a keyboard and mouse. They don't have to be very fancy but also not the cheapest.

I'm actually considering buying this but the problem is, I think is that I maybe game for 1 or 2 years and then stop. Then it would be a waste of money (in my opinion) because at home we have a good working iMac that I use.

Well if you are planning on playing Battlefield 4, then the iMac won't be enough. Also, that build isn't anything too extreme, after you are done gaming then the worst thing that can happen is that you have a nice desktop computer! The choice is yours of course

Haha, I totally agree with that. The whole system is about 700 dollar (which is 515€) and I now have about 450€. My birthday is in March so I have to wait a month or 2.

Do you know if there are any parts that could be better for a little bit more money?

So you're saying if you have something like a 850$ budget? After your birthday, I don't know how much money you would get, but we could definitely do some upgrades with more money, just tell me the estimated amount! :)

No but if you make a list on pcpartpicker for about 850 dollar it eventually becomes around 850 euro or even more because here in the Netherlands we don't have some parts so I have to change them with other ones and then it becomes automatically more expensive.

A list for about 850 dollar is good. My friend named me some parts and this is his list that he told me: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/2vxAk
He said that if I would take a 600w psu I could OC my processor later on.
