[URL="http://de.pcpartpicker.com/user/Lett1/saved/3tP9TW"]This is it[/URL]
So a friend asked me to create and build a pc for him since he has no experience doing so.
The only thing missing are graphics, personally I would use a nvidia gpu but I have no clue which model is currently the best for a budget like this. I still can't shake the feeling that I messed up somewhere, maybe some parts are too expensive/wrong.
Maybe someone can take a look at it, it would help a lot.
Try the ASUS GTX 970. It will bring the total price to €1204.12.

The pro ssd is really unnecessary and will keep the cost down if you opt for a standard consumer model

That one has some really good reviews and stuff, thanks.

Yeah, we talked about it and decided to remove it opting for a 2TB hdd instead. He can still buy one later.

-Get a K series CPU. Your mobo allows for easy overclocking, but the CPU doesnt. Its a really easy way to squeeze some more out of a CPU when it gets older after 3+ years.
-Be quiet usually looks ok in tests. But my part suppplier claimed that of the 7 high end models he sold 2 years ago, 6 came back. (the seventh one is running fine in my machine)
-I would get the 840 EVO SSD. I have the impression that the new 3d nand 850's are more of a tech demo than an actual finished product.
