Here, just use this for reference. I made prices about 100 USD cheaper because some parts may be more expensive in your country or they may be on sale.

Why i3? It has only 2 cores and 3.7ghz amd atholon is cheaper and has 4 cores with 3.8ghz and guys im thinking about video card that with what i could play games long time about ~3-4yrs

turbopiki · Aug 30, 2015

i3 has hyperthreading so it acts liek a quad core, and will do much better in gaming than athlon.
Archaic89 build is good, i am currently looking if you can get something better for you budget

turbopiki · Aug 30, 2015

Ok i would change 2 things in his build RAM and GPU

Ram with same specs wont change perfromance - http://www.kilobaitas.lt/Print/Print.aspx?Page=ItemPrint_v01&ID=418018
And better GPU - http://www.kilobaitas.lt/Print/Print.aspx?Page=ItemPrint_v01&ID=615440

This gets you to: 453,90 € / 1567,23 Lt

Some benchmarks
CPU(x4 860k is just a bit better than fx-4300) http://www.hardwarepal.com/best-cpu-gaming-9-processors-8-games-tested/
GPU: http://www.techspot.com/review/1049-nvidia-geforce-gtx-950/

Noah_Gamer · Aug 30, 2015

Ok guys like i see u give me gpu with 2gb gddr5 so i have question what i need to look at clock speed or gddr on gpu and is that gainward gtx 950 2gb gddr5 gonna be good for gaming for about 2yrs and is it worth upgrading cpu to that i3 that it was written because right now i have i3-2100

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

Guys im thinking about good gpu with 4 gb gddr5 can find one for my budget

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

guys what you think about this build:
GPU: ASUS GTX 750 Ti Strix 4gb - 163,45 € 564,36 Lt
CPU: Intel Core i3-4170, Dual Core, 3.70GHz Processor- 119,50 € 412,61 Lt
MOBO: ASRock H97 ANNIVERSARY LGA1150 Motherboard - 73,41 € 253,47 Lt
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x4GB 1600MHz DDR3 CL9 -50,25 € 173,50 Lt

i dont need new psu because all these are not using more than 240W because now i have 220-240W PSU

turbopiki · Aug 31, 2015

Why GTX 750TI ? GTX 750Ti is not able to use 4gb of vram os its pointless to buy it. also if you game on 1080p or lower you dont need more than 2gb of VRAM

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

read this http://www.asus.com/Graphics-Cards/STRIXGTX750TIDC2OC4GD5/ is it really bad?

turbopiki · Aug 31, 2015

never said that GTX 750TI is bad, but its not worth spending more on 4gb version because you wont gain almost nothing maybe 1-3 FPS, but if you go with GTX 950 you will get a lot more FPS, if you OC GTX 950 it can perfrom about the same as stock GTX 960

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

hmm ok than i gonna look what types they have of gtx 950 (in my country shop)

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

ok here what of these i could select: http://www.kilobaitas.lt/Ieskoti/CatalogStore.aspx?criteria=gtx%20950

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

so u leave me 40€ for games i know u leave 45€ but what aboy thermal paste so u leave me 40€ here i gonna write what rig i have now:

CPU: i3-2100 3.1Ghz (idk how many cores he haves)
GPU: GTS 450 Palit 1gb
RAM: 2x2gb gddr3 556Mhz
MOBO: H61M-VS
PSU: (ugh i gonna check later)

turbopiki · Aug 31, 2015

you get CPU cooler with thermal paste pre-applied with new CPU i3 4160. In the box you will get CPU and THIS

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

xD it the cooler look like mine i3-2100 cooler

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

ok last question (i think) in ASRock H97 ANNIVERSARY motherboard there is 4 ram insertations if i gonna buy 2x4gb 1600mhz ram can i insert my ram that i have right now? like in blue ones i gonna insert 4gbx2 in black ones 2gbx2 can i do that?

turbopiki · Aug 31, 2015

you could try, but i doubt it will work. If RAM's are not the same model they rarely work together

Noah_Gamer · Aug 31, 2015

but it not going to destroy my pc? xD ok thx for all help

turbopiki · Aug 31, 2015

no it wont destroy your PC, there are just 2 options, it will or it wont work
