Hello,
I've read quite a few threads on this forum regarding components since I'm planing on buying new computer. Even after reading it all I'm still unsure what should I choose.
I am looking for a gaming computer that will last 5 years and can be Oc'ed and crossfired at some point. Important thing to note is I planned on spending 750 euros but if it means I will get longer lasting computer for 100 euros more i will spend it. Another thing that bugs me is should i wait few months for some new components.
I will break it down to 3 options. If something needs to be changed please advise me.

Im buying components in Austria but I am from Croatia. Can really find a good dealer but at least in Austria it is cca 100 euros cheaper on what ever i choose. This are the prices i should pay.
Is it worth going 100 euros more for newest Intel chipset? I am also unsure about the MB I choose but going for Hero VII seems to expensive for me.
In all there variants i can push 10-30 euros more if it REALLY means i would get what im looking for. Only thing i plan on changing on this computer in next 5 years is : OC after warranty, maybe crossfire another Graphic card if really needed at some point, add SSD when i will be able to afford it. I would like a separate internet card since we had quite a few Lightning strikes this year but again i will buy that at one point.
I would like to know if components i choose are a match ( fits the case for sure
![:) :)]()
) ) and that they dont have really weak part which would unbalance my system.
Also should i consider buying more fans?
TL DR : Which of the 3 would you choose for next 5 years of gaming knowing u wont be able to upgrade much ( crossfire only one day maybe ).
Would you change anything?
Thank you very much in advance please do advice and give me your thoughts.
P.S. sorry for rusty English
