Hi to all.

I'm living in Finland and looking to buy parts for a gaming pc for 700e give or take. If there really is a much better deal for say 800-900 I'd be willing to stretch but around 700 is the goal.

I basically know nothing about building PC's. Something that would run FIFA 15 on best settings would be nice. But I have no idea if that's possible on this price range.
Fifa 15 requirements:

I'd like to buy wisely so that I can later improve on the parts with small additions instead of buying the whole shebang again in a few years.

Tried to keep it up under 700, because taxes and ect will change the price, and the OS will also cost money (or not)

Didn't see the 2nd part about the 800-900 budget increase, that could get a somewhat better system, but performance wise I don't think you'd see the difference between them in game.

Thanks for the info. I'll have to look into those.
What do you mean better system? Like in terms of upgrading for later? If you have an idea for a much better compilation for 800 I'd also like to hear it. If it's just slightly better I don't really need one. But as I understand it even a 100e of difference might be a totally different machine.

And also, will what you posted run Fifa 15 at max settings? :D

This motherboard would let you put a K-series processor in it in the future so you could overclock it, the other one not so much. The 770 will run everything in the near future at ultra.

I'd actually suggest getting a gtx970, but they don't appear to be available in europe yet? (today anyways.)

Hi again. Just wanted to make sure. I found a good deal on the motherboard but is this the same one as in your last post?

Also, what are the differences between these two memory components? Difference in price is only 7 euro so is the more expensive one better?

Also, I forgot I already have a 500w power supply (http://www.coolermaster.com/powersupply/b-series/b500/) .
Is that enough for this setup?

Edit: I couldn't find the case that you recommended. Any of these good? http://www.jimms.fi/listaa/17/74/group/vendor/asc/order/price

And finally. Is this about the same internal hard harddrive that you recommended? http://www.jimms.fi/tuote/WD10EZRX
