ADDITIONAL COMMENTS:
I'd like advice on this build. Feel free to suggest better options to those that I've chosen. Also point out things that don't work together that good or not at all. If I can save money and get the same value.
The thing about my build is that I want it to last a long time, I'd like to be able to play future titles and do other stuff in the future without much trouble.
Note: The prices on the hardware may be much lower than my stated budget but that's because the prices in Sweden are high. Please suggest changes that don't stretch my budget too much.
Thanks
