Hello,

Please take a look if anything need to be changed or it is not reliable. ☺

Mobo: Asus H170 Pro
CPU: Intel i5 6400
Ram: Kingston ValueRAM 4GB DDR4-2133MHz (KVR21N15S8) x2
Gpu: Gigabyte GeForce GTX750 Ti 4GB (GV-N75TWF2OC-4GI)
Ssd: Kingston SSDNow V300 120GB
HD: WD black 1TB
PSU: Corsair VS Series VS550 80Plus

Thank you!

Here's few more changes:

With those + 1Tb Western Digital, the price should be about 710€ in total.
The Kingston SSDNow V300 is quite bad SSD so I changed it. in return of 40€ more, you get 250Gb instead of 120Gb and more reliable SSD. But can change that 250Gb to 120Gb instead if you want to bring price down.


Also, while the 4460 is slightly weaker than 6400, the GPU is a lot more powerful.
So in comparison it will perform better.
I would take H97 motherboard with Intel i5 4460/4570/4670/4690 and DDR3-1866 2x4Gb.
Then use the extra money on better GPU.
For example: 950 or 960 2Gb.


EDIT: you will also need to invest on better PSU. Corsair VS series is horrible PSU.
XFX Core Edition 450W or 550W would be perfect.
