Solution
It should do you well for low settings on most triple A titles. I'd suggest increasing the RAM to 16GB and GPU to a GTX 1050+ if you want to play at a higher quality with more fps.


Do you have this, buying it or building it with parts? It's not bad for gaming as it but could be a lot better with a video card that matched the CPU better. The RAM size is a bid odd also, is it three 4GB sticks? If it is, it can slow down the system since you are not running in a balanced dual channel mode.

You are overspending on the processor and not spending enough on the GPU and an SSD. Also when buying RAM I recommend getting an even number of sticks each of equal size as this will enable you to run in dual channel config and effectively double your bandwidth.

Hello, thank you for your responses. So basically, I always wanted a great PC for gaming but the main problem is money. I'm looking to build a PC for 1500 Euros and I found these parts on some stores which in total cost around 1350 Euros. I'm not sure if they're good though, that's why I'm asking. I'd really appreciate if someone could tell me which CPUs/GPUs/ etc. would make a good gaming PC, which in total would not exceed ~1500 Euros (including a monitor and an ordinary keyboard).
I hope you will be able to help me.

Amazon.com I guess? By the way, as I live in Greece, they have to be eligible for shipping in Greece.
Thanks for your help! :D

Considering I don't live in Greece, there would be no way for me to tell whether a product ships to Greece or not. Also, there is no way for me to calculate how much to product will end up costing you after factoring in taxes and import duty.

Oh alright then, you could still find the products on Amazon and if they are too expensive (with taxes and stuff), I'll just buy it from a local store in a cheaper price.
