Hello guys,

I am looking for a new budget gaming pc.
I created a thread before but I messed something up so I created a new one.

Schau314 suggested these builds :

http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Schau314/saved/4h2W
http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Schau314/saved/4h2Y

How about them? Which one is the best? I won't be overclocking , I don't need OS or monitor , just parts + case. My budget is €600,- for GPU im leaning towards an GTX 760, but I'm not sure.
The games I want to be able to play are Planetside 2, Minecraft, TF2, Warframe and perhaps some other games on steam but not heavy games like COD or Battlefield.

Help will be appreciated! :D

all those games are heavily cpu driven so i would stick to intel if possible. the 750ti is a great gpu for the price, and can run the heavier games quite easily on high settings (can nearly run bf4 on ultra)

in all those builds, the PSU is A LOT more than what your system needs, since you're not overclocking, or thinking of a GPU upgrade, that PSU isn't needed, you can save few bucks by buying a cheaper PSU

as i see in all your builds, you want a GTX 750 Ti, which uses the brand new Maxwell architecture, that makes it the most energy effiecient GPU ever made, the recommended PSU is a only 300w! so all your system at full load, won't go over 220w, so technically any good 300w would be enough, but it's recommonded to use a more powerful PSU, so you won't have to replace it later if you decide to upgrade the GPU, here are some suggestions:

the corsair CX430 is awesome if you can get one with a good price

well the GTX 760 draws quite a bit of power compared to the GTX 750 Ti, the XFX that you picked in your builds would be great, but for that price i'd go with the Corsair CX 600 http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0092ML0OC/?tag=pcpapi-20

and there's one thing i have to mention, the total Wattage is not important especially for PSUs from unknown brands, there are some that say 450w, but they only have 18A on the 12V rail; that means 18x12=216w!!!, and that's almost all they can handle, so the most important thing is not total Wattage, but it's how much Amps on the 12V rail, but you can trust the well known brands, like Corsair, Sesonic, Antec, Enermax, XFX...... they never lie about their products
