So I am planning to buy my first PC, i have had some laptops that have been able to somewhat game on the lowest setting and at the same time great for Adobe's photo and video software.

I am in the last year of high school and I live in the dorm, so I plan to build a m-atx system that has the ability to move around (i have a big wardrobe trunk that fits the case i plan to go with)

I have som questions about the components i have chosen, and some opinions which parts should be better for such a build.

Approximate purchase date: within 1-3 months

Budget range: 700-800 EUR (900USD)

Parts that i already have:
-2 monitors (one for at my place and one for in the dorm),
-keyboard and mouse (not a big deal, i can stuff them in the bagpack),
-2 WD 1TB harddrives,
-headphones,
-speakers,
-OS Windows 8.1 PRO (usb boot drive)

I am from Slovenia, EU, so i would be happy if you would consider that when posting links to websites that do not ship to EU countries.

I probably won't overclock, but it wouldnt hurt if it could be able to oc a bit.
Also, i don't plan to have crossfire/sli config just now, maybe in some years.

Monitor res: 1920:1080


And now the parts i've chosen (all prices are from my area)

CPU: AMD Athlon X4 860K 3.7GhZ (78 EUR)
Motherboard: MSI A88XM Gaming (114 EUR)
RAM: Kingston HyperX Savage 8GB DDR3 1866MHz (85 EUR)
GPU: MSI Geforce GTX 960 Gaming 2G (246 EUR)
PSU: Evga 600W 80Plus Bronze (70 EUR)
Case: Thermaltake Core V21 (80 EUR) OR Corsair Carbide Air 240 (100 EUR)
And some WI-FI USB adapter for 15 EUR

So yeah, all the budget here comes around at 700 EUR, I've left some free space of budget for different things that you can add or change.

Feel free to express your opinion what i've chosen wrong and what i should rather pick, and thank you for your help guys :)
