Hi,
i want to make a new pc like this, but i made this configuration about 6 month ago so maybe these are not enough good now.
CPU: Intel Core i5 4670k
Motherboard: ASRock Z87M Extreme4
CPU cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
PSU: XFX ProSeries 550w
GIGABYTE GF GTX760 OC 2GB 256bit DDR5
RAM: Kingmax DDR3 1600MHz 4GB (2x4 GB) (already bought)
I calculated, and it all costs about 500euro, in Hungary!
So can you help me to create another one like this configuration, but newer and the "same" price.
Thx!

And if i want to buy a new hard drive or SSD i dont know what is the cheapest and best for gaming.If you already have a 7200rpm HDD then you only need another one when it's 75% full
HDD - get a 7200rpm Western digital caviar blue (or black)
SSD - Crucial MX100 offer good price / performance
Neither will improve FPS but you would get quicker load times with an SSD. It's a nice addition to a machine, makes it feel snappy. 128gb or 256gb would be the size to go for

I got this one: Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB 32MB 7200rpm SATA2 HD103SJ, but when i check the desktop it says that i have C (195 Gb) and D (736 Gb) local disk. So i have one 1Tb HDD or 2 500Gb HDD?? I dont understand...
Samsung Spinpoint F3 1TB 32MB 7200rpm SATA2 HD103SJ is enough, becouse i dont want to buy an other HDD?
Which is enough?
1. Samsung F3 1TB 32MB 7200rpm
2. Samsung F3 1TB 32MB 7200rpm + Crucial MX100 SSD
3. Western digital caviar black
4. Western digital caviar black + Crucial MX100 SSD

It sonds like your 1tb hard drive has been partitioned. Unless it's getting full or you want an SSD I wouldn't worry

Usually you put Windows on the SSD, and a few programs (or games) where you want them to load fast (like microsoft office, for example). This will make your pc feel more snappy and responsive
Normal files, folders, movies etc just go on the hard drive.

Well the cleanest way is to format the hard drive, which wipes everything - so if you're buying another hard drive then copy all your important stuff over before you wipe it as it is very difficult to recover after formattingI have an external HDD so i can copy my things. Thanks for your help!
