Hello guys,
My name is David, the guy on the budget lol :D
now I want to build this pc mostly for playing Counter Strike : Global Offensive so the most important thing for me is that my future pc must have the best possible setup for this game :)

I want to play the game at 1080p, medium settings and I want a constant 100+ fps, so no lag spikes what so ever :)

My budget is 500 euros, including the monitor because i have a laptop already, but I have a W8.1 so I wont need an OS.

Now, my friend told me that this parts are the best but I would rather ask for a second opinion..

LG 22`` 22M45HQ-B

ASUS R7260X-OC-2GD5

Kingston HyperX FURY Memory Blue 4GB - DDR3 1600MHz

AMD Athlon II X4 760K 3.80GHz

HDD 500GB Toshiba 7200rpm

ATX Case Fractal Design Core 1000

PSU 350W Gembird PSU10-12

ASUS M5A78L-M LX3 *

*does this motherboard have the ability to overclock?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you have any better pc build for the same price please tell me, also note that all of these parts that I mentioned would be bought in my country so they might be cheaper or more expensive in your country.

If you can afford it the cheapest i3 + a Z97 board is always a better option. Heck, if I am short of money I will get the Intel Pentium G3258 + a Z97 board. It gives the flexibility to upgrade to the best i7 4 th Gen on the market later. And that Pentium can be overclocked pretty good.

Your monitor is ok. Most of the people game on a 60hz monitor and it's adequate. I myself is an avid BF4 player and I use a 60 hz dell monitor and I never felt my monitor is holding me back.

that Sensei is a great mouse! I am rather very picky about my KBD/mouse and I swear by a mechanical keyboard(I refuse to use anything except a Razer blackwidow and Roccat kone at home). See if you can find a mechanical in your budget. If not, Razer deathstacker...

1. I wouldn't go with a phenom. They are pretty old now. I would say get a fx 6300 + Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3 combo.

And i would get a decent power supply like a Seasonic S12II 520. You risk all your components by using a no name power supply.

About the psu you are totaly right, i did some research just now and yes, i should put more money into it.
I might be wrong but CS:GO will only use 4 out of the 6 cores of the FX 6300 right then why i should get it? as i said i need this pc for cs go, then again i might be wrong but I am sure that i red somewhere that fx 6300 is not a god cpu for cs:go..

What about my gpu, is the r7 260x good enough to give me constant 100+ fps on 1080p medium settings?

If you want to run ONLY Cs:go the Athlon is OK. But the fx is better overall and overclocking on the fx is insanely easy.

Your GPU is fine. You can run not only CS:go but also all the current games at medium settings. I do not know about the exact FPS for CS go, but it should give you constant 60+.

In my country the fx6300 is only 10 euros cheaper than the most expensive intel i3 cpu, maybe i should get i3 istead? and what i3?

One more thing, is the monitor ok? It is 60hz i know but the 120hz are so expensive for my budget, it has 2ms response time and quite good contrast ratio.

And one more thing apparently :D Is there any good quality gaming keyboard around 30-40 euros? About the mouse I will go for the Sensei Raw, very decent mouse.

See if you can find a mechanical in your budget. If not, Razer deathstacker backlit one is pretty good for a membrane keyboard and it has the cool razer back lighting. See the price in your country. If it's too costly use the deathstalker essential. They should be under your budget.
