So I'm gonna do a new build and I'm not sure about few parts. It's gonna have:

i5-4570
2x4GB Crucial Ballistix Elite
1 TB Caviar Blue
XFX TS Series 550W PSU
TP-Link TL-WN851ND
Samsung SH-224DB Optical Drive

And here are the things I'm not sure about:
Mobo:
ASUS H97M-E ~108$
Gigabyte GA-H97-HD3 ~98$
Gigabyte GA-H97M-HD3 ~115$

GPU:
MSI R9 280 3GB GAMING 3GB ~286$
Gigabyte R9 280 3GB OC ~261$

Case:
Cooler Master: Elite 430 ~67$
Zalman Z3 (non plus) ~44$
Thermaltake V4 ~ 56$
LC POWER Gaming 975B Air Wing ~69$

Samsung S24D390HL Monitor

I don't think I'm ever gonna use SLI or Crossfire so Mobo can only have 1 PCIe. Out of those 2 GPU's, is the 1st one worth 25$ more? In some games it's better than 2nd one, but sometimes it seems to be the other way around. I can't afford a 770 of 280x. For now I'm gonna play in 1080p but in future I'll prolly buy a 1440p monitor. Any better suggestions for monitor? And which is the best case? It would be awesome if the case would have a USB 3.0 port in the front. I'm not from USA so other cases are quite expensive here, but feel free to give me some alternatives. And that goes for all parts :)  Ty in advance.

No one was replying for few days so I stopped checking the thread, sorry about that. My budget is ~1215 $, but I'm not from USA so I'm somewhat limited on my options.

7300,00 kn (hrk)

http://www.nabava.net/ The main website via which you can see what 80% of other shops have.

http://www.adm.hr/ (one of the most reliable shops and also one of the cheapest)

http://www.diskont24.com/home.php

http://www.futura-it.hr/naslovna/

http://www.links.hr/

these 4 are prolly the most reliable ones and have almost all components. I'm trying to avoid extreme digital and protis, you'll see them a lot there, they have a bad reputation and I can confirm that the reputation is deserved.

Good luck and ty
