I am kind of noob when building a pc as it is my first time, so also tell if the combinations put together would work or not, if not then please suggest a part that would work.

Also all these combinations go over 40K without the OS, so should I use a pirated one?

Also if you find these combinations not good enough please suggest a custom build, THANK YOU!!!

Combination 3 would be the better choice! the r7 265 is a nice little GPU (better than the GTX 750).

The only thing I would switch if possible is the power supply as the Corsairs are known for having their problems. Any way you can switch it for XFX/Seasonic/Antec/EVGA b2.

Yeah i Could change the psu, no problem, also would the mobo fit in the case in all the combinations?

would 550 Watts be enough though?

also both the cpu and the gpu come with fans, so is an extra fan necessary?
