Hi hardware experts,
I need to do a computer build for some multimedia/programming tasks and casual gaming (Battlefield 4, CoD, Hitman, Tomb Raider...).
After reading a lot of reviews and recommendations, I have put together one configuration based on best buy components. I am interested in having best price/performance ratio machine to 750 which is around 1037$. Here is my config proposal:
1. Case: BitFenix Prodigy M Mini Tower - 78

2. PSU: 500 Watt Corsair CX Series Modular 80+ Bronze
- 55

3. CPU: Intel Core i5 4670K 4x 3.40GHz So.1150 BOX
- 190

4. Mainboard: ASRock Z87M Extreme4 - 92

5. RAM: 8GB Kingston HyperX Black DDR3-1600 - 60
http://www.mindfactory.de/product_i...-Black-DDR3-1600-DIMM-CL10-Single_827183.html
6. SSD: 250GB Samsung 840 Evo Series 2.5" - 115
http://www.mindfactory.de/product_i...4cm--SATA-6Gb-s-TLC-Toggle--MZ-7T_917098.html
7. GPU: 2048MB Asus Radeon R9 270 DirectCU II Aktiv - 151
http://www.mindfactory.de/product_i...CU-II-Aktiv-PCIe-3-0-x16--Retail-_941848.html
8. WLAN: TP-Link TL-WN881ND - 11

All: 752
I already have the monitor, later if I need, I can buy additional HDD (I have 1TB external drive). What do you think about this build ? Any proposals ? PSU should be good for this build and overclock later ?
I chose unlocked CPU so I can overclock it in few months when I buy better cooling for CPU, I guess I should get 10FPS in games and some visible performance boost in Adobe Photoshop and similar software packages...
