New PC Build (need help)

Hello there:

I am planning to build a 800-850 Euros pc and buy it in about a month.

I will need to stream at at least 720p with it and be able to play games smoothly (old and future games like elder scrolls online)

I choose an AMD Fx8350 CPU at the moment because I read that the AMD has better performance ingames while Streaming. And even without streaming, it might be more future proof (heard amd is talking to gaming producers to optimize their games better with amd processors , like BF4, I can be wrong ofc, then ill go for I5 Haswell I suppose


Here is my Current build:

With VGA:http://www.alternate.de/MSI/MSI+GTX760_OC_Twin_Frozr,_Grafikkarte/html/product/1087132/?

Case: http://www.alternate.de/Aerocool/Aerocool+Vs-92,_Gehaeuse/html/product/1068799/?


My budget is thus a bit higher then I wanted. Perhaps I can cut some euros on the Power supply?

I first wanted this http://www.alternate.de/Thermaltake/Thermaltake+Berlin_630W,_Netzteil/html/product/863860/? would save me some Euros. But heard its not good enough. Any suggestions? Perhaps 620/650 watt would be enough if its 80+ bronze? This for example http://www.hardwareversand.de/articledetail.jsp?aid=39875&agid=1629 would already save me about 7-8 euros


Thanks !

Thanks, I have updated the picture, altho Im new at this , never built a pc or even read something about it untill 2 days ago. So I dont know the difference between the two, I just know/think I need 8 gb ram with 1600 mhz. Not that I know why 😀

Thanks tho, if theres anything else, ill appreciate the help.

Might be I got Laptop ram again, I dont know the difference or how you can see it, but I guess by looking at pictures, laptop ram is a bit Bigger? :/

pcpartspicker doesn't have the GTX 760 in there yet. The one you linked looks to be a good price. I put in the 7870XT because it's only slightly slower than a 7950 for substantially less, but the next step up would be that GTX 760.

Just overclock the 8320 to 8350 speeds.
 
Ah nice, I did want to overclock the 8350 as much as my system allowed me too, perhaps 4,5-4,6 ghz? How much performance will I lose with the 8320?

Its really a big difference in price, could even get the 770 gtx now.. But I need to make sure I have enough power from my CPU for streaming.
 
With the suggestion you just gave me the setup looks like this

http://tinypic.com/r/2upbpeu/5

(I should probably order some stuff on amazon if shipping is free to save a few euros, but atm this is just from one site) I also didnt remove the CPU cooler, for OC purpose but I dont know if its needed for the 8320

Just need to add the case to the picture, the case you provided isnt available on the site im at, is the Aerocool vs 92 good aswell? Else I can just order the case separately if shipping is also free
 
That cooler doesn't look too great. I don't have another suggestion though as you don't seem to have the 212 Evo available to you.
 
I can get the 212 EVO http://www.hardwareversand.de/Intel+AMD/59387/Cooler+Master+Hyper+212+EVO++-+Intel+AMD.article
I just read it wasnt really powerful enough for the 8350 So I didnt know if it was really good or not, the other one was on a top 10 site i found, better than the noctua dh-14 wich is like 20 more euros :/ Ofc I only checked one site, so dont know if its accurate

The problem I have with the CPU cooler ( both the evo and the one i wanted) is that its 159 mm High. And if I get the Aerocool case, it supports a CPU cooler that is max 158 MM high lol.. Maybe I can scratch 1mm away xD

I wouldn't worry about 1mm. If it truly touches, the side of the case will flex enough to accommodate it.
 
Alright!


So after the suggestions received and a lot of reading trough forums.. till 4-5 am for 2-3 days x.x This is what I got so far:

http://tinypic.com/r/30mpffc/5

Note that I took a random case, hardwareversand doesnt have the Aerocool VS 92 yet


Are there any other suggestions/critics?

I took the other motherboard wich was around the same price to be able to OC easier, im planning on going to at least 4.6 ghz with the 8320. Wich is approx the goal I wanted to reach with the 8350 anyway. So unless it is too much for the 8320 and my budget, Its what ill go for.
Will the cooling be okay? As CPU cooler its not the best but for its price/performance I thought it was really good. Other cpu coolers are 30 euros more expensive.. Theres the 212 ofc, would save me money.

Thank you so far for the suggestions

Perhaps I should just stay with the stock cooler? OC till only 4,0 or 4,2 ghz and save 50 euros, so ill stay within budget?

I'm no Vishera overclocking expert, so I can't predict what clocks you're likely to hit.

The parts look good to me except for the case, which I think is ugly as sin. If it were me, I think I'd pay a little more for the Corsair 200R.
