I need some help, because im an newbie in pc building.. I have gathered some information from internet and this is what my build looks like right now:
PSU: Corsair 550W VS550M ATX
RAM: 8GB (2x4GB) Vengeance DDR3, 1600MHz, 9-9-9-24, 1.5V 90YV04L2-M0NA00
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760 DC2OC 2GB GDDR5, 2xDVI/HDMI/DP, PCI-E 3.0
BX80646I54670K
CPU: Intel Haswell i5-4670K, LGA1150, 3.4GHz, 6MB
Cooler: Hyper 212 EVO
Optical drive: DRW-24F1ST
HDD: 1TB Barracuda, 3.5", Sata3, 7200rpm, 64MB
MOBO: MSI Z87-G43 Gaming, LGA1150, Intel Z87, DDR3, ATX
My budget is around 800€, and im trying to make it as good gaming pc as possible. Only for gaming and streaming. Are these components good or should i change some of them? Does they work with each other? I would be pleased, if someone could give me some advices!

If you w'ont overclock drop the evo 212. It's prerty hard to install for first time builders. Also i would change the barracuda to a western digital blue. Where i live they're way cheaper and they're good. With your saving you might be able to push the limit of your budget and get a gtx770. Otherwise maybe an ssd. Or upgrade the motherboard to the z97 series because they will be compatible with the next gen of cpu's. That's what i'm going to do
also i see you live in europe so that makes it easier because i use euros to.
Back to topic.
The system you have now have surely is compatible but i'm just not sure about the 550W. You can find wattage calculators for it. Just google it.

yes everything seems right, the psu is ok you wont need more power for the cpu or the gpu than that and is also a corsair psu and they have excellent build quality and durability, the mobo is the right one for your cpu and it is oc capable. 8gbs is the sweat spot for ram but i have to say something.
Why go for the gtx 760 when you can get the r9 280 for the same price and it is better here is a video that prove it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qim-asQrT_Y
i wont say is destroy the gtx 760 but it really beat it.
But overall this build is more than ok and the budget is ok.
I hope it helped you

Here where I live, the pc components are pretty expensive, and if i order them form another country, the sipping cost becomes damn expensive..
So do you mean, that I dont even need CPU cooler, if I dont overclock my CPU? I changed that HDD to Western Blue, but I think that GTX 770 is still too expensive.. What do you mean about that z97 is for next gen, and does z97 model still work with my other components? Is that GTX 770 so much better than GTX 760? And what does SSD help? Sorry for asking so much. :'D

Yes much better, more than 2times better. It betas the hell out of 780! So 760 doesn't stand a chance. If u do not want to O.C,then change the CPU to i5-4570. And yes, u would definitely need a cpu cooler even if you do not plan to O.C.

Also very important: make sure your gpu and cpu cooler fit in your case! Because the evo 212 is really high. Also sometging i forgot to mention is that if you will not overclock drop the k series! Go for an i5-4690 instead. It's cheaper and faster rightout of the box.I was thinking NZXT h440 case, would it fit?

dont pay a premium for the gtx 770, for 1080p the gtx 760 is more than ok but as i said you can buy the r9 280 and the performance is really close to a gtx 770.Heres my choises:
http://www.jimms.fi/tuote/90YV04L2-M0NA00-TFB and http://www.jimms.fi/tuote/R9280-DC2T-3GD5
So I should go for the second one?

as i can see the gtx 760 is price 240 euros and the r9 280 is only 190 euros.
here is the cheapest gtx 760 i could find in this page: http://www.jimms.fi/tuote/N760-3SDN-E5DSX
and here is the r9 280: http://www.jimms.fi/tuote/R9-280A-TDFD-BUNDLE
i would recomment you to go for the r9 280 is an overall better gpu.

Well the motherboard supports everything but again i recommend going with the z97 chipset mobo. Where i live it's only €5 more expensive then the z87. And also it is just the same as the z87 it is just going to support the newer cpu's. It's just a little bit more futureproof. And the case i don't know. You can check it yourself just search the gpu's lenght and the max lenght the case supports. The rest is fine!
