New GAMING PC, please assist me. ORDER MADE!

 I'm wondering why ppl get fucked over by banks and dont even think about starting a civil war. Theres been lesser motivations in the past.

For the love of god, go at least with 64GB SSD. 32GB is hardly enough for a Windows installation!
Really, 32GB is a waste of money :3

After heavy consideration I downgraded the CPU to 8320 (will OC it) and with the money left,  I chose the next best 970 GTX (based on newegg reviews) from the one you recommended me, I picked this because its small, not very watt consuming, and it will last for at least 2 years (at least I hope), after that I may recommend to my uncle to buy another one for crossfire (thats why I put a 700w power suply)

I picked a new cpu cooler, not something special, just to get rid off the default one.

Picked a MIDI tower since the VGA is very small.

Dual rams @ 8G`s 1600mhz, will do the trick I think

I left out the SSD, because fuck my little cousin, he`s 14, he doesnt deserve one! 
 

What do  you think?

but an SSD is so good to have

You can always get a proper SSD when some bucks are left in the pocket.
Better to have none than a 32GB - that would be like throwing money out of the window.

exactly my thinking.

ad I told my uncle, he can buy him this set for now, and in 1 year , when the prices of the SSD drop down a bit more, he can buy him one, plus a second video card for crossfire.


In generall I think this will be a good gaming pc for at least a couple of years, given the circumstances and the available material.


Btw, is there a german hardware site where you can build your own pc, that ships to Greece?

If I make an order from amazon, do they built the pc aswell, or they deliver the parts only?

[Molly]

I'm pretty sure there are e-shops in Germany selling to Greece - which... I couldn't tell you.
And I am not sure how it works with taxes and stuff.

I ordered a couple of items from Amazon for my build but I was only upgrading and not building from ground up.
Tbh, I doubt that they prebuild it tho.

What? You can get used OCZ Vertex 3 60gb for 35-40 euros here, paid mine 3-4 years ago 3 times that, it's still a beast. Btw. Panos always be sure to check read and write speeds, just the letters SSD don't mean you'll get a fantastic performance

The suspense, I can't stand it. Was Panos gangraped by Eritreans?
