Hi,

I worked hard and i finally got enough money to build my dream computer. The budget is about 2300-2400 euro. I just want to use it for gaming, not for video-editing or something else.

It's the first time I'm building a game computer myself, so please if you have any comment, say it.

This is it:
Case: Cooler Master CM 690 III Window Black
PSU: Cooler Master V-Series Semi-Modular 650W
SSD: Crucial MX200 500GB
HDD: Western Digital Desktop Mainstream 2TB
CPU: Intel Core i7 4790K
CPU cooler: Noctua NH-U14S
RAM: Kingston HyperX Savage 16GB DDR3-1866MHz CL9 kit
GPU: MSI Radeon R9 390X Gaming 8GB
Motherboard: MSI Z97A Gaming 6
Monitor: ASUS MG279Q
Total: 2350 euro (I live in Belgium, ******* expensive country)

--> I want to game in 2k
--> I think the 390X is good at 2K. But everybody in the internet is raging and says that the 390X is a complete money waste because it's just a rebrand of the 290X... It makes me pretty unsure about this graphics card
--> The monitor is 650 euro: 1440p/1ms/Freesync,IPS
--> Please feel free to make any comment, it would be really appreciated. I worked really hard for the money.

Thanks in regards

Well, the budget is 2300-2400 euro. That's pc+monitor. I don't really have a budget for the monitor. I can live with a 1800 euro pc and 600 euro monitor, but a 2000 euro pc and 400 euro monitor is good as well. As long it is a good 1440p monitor.

Belgium is a country in Europe. (next to France & Germany)
