Get an i7 4790k best for single thread applications aka gaming and a beast video card.

You will own the competition.

macz, how much money you willing to spend on new pc? If i was you I would go with something like this. If you have some extra money to spare it why not go with something better where you don't have to worry about in upgrading for the next few years.


Intel Core i7-4790K Processor (8M Cache, up to 4.40 GHz) (BX80646I74790K)
by Intel
16GB Corsair® Vengeance™ DDR3-1600 1.5V (2x8GB)
NVIDIA® GeForce™ GTX 970 4GB GDDR5
750W EVGA® SuperNOVA 80 Plus Certified PSU - GTX 780 SLI Ready
512GB Samsung® 850 Pro SSD SATA 6G [550MB/s Reads]
Microsoft Windows 7 Professional 64-bit

I think the rest you should be fine. I strongly recommend a Samsung 850 Pro SSD. That's something i would consider, I dunno if you have the budget for it but it's worth spending it on items that would make your pc perform faster.

Alright broski, here's my suggestions:

1) For that budget (1100 euro is what? $1500), you can get i7.
2) Upgrade videocard to Radeon R9 285 or GeForce GTX 770 (770 is bit better)

Where you can spend less:
1) Case. You can easily cut 40 euros there with mid-tower (trust me, mid tower is large enough for 95% of builds) and contribute that saving to other more important parts. If you truly want full tower, i saw other cases for 55 euros. I would not spend 85 euros on a case with that budget though when you have bigger needs
2) Powersupply. Unless if you specifically want fully-modular, you can save 20 euros easily with a great semi-modular PSU.
3) Ram. You can save about 6 euros and still get same performance

Questions:
1) Do you need the extra Harddrive right now? If I were you, I would get the SD harddrive for sure but get the regular HD later when you need more space. HD prices continue to drop on basically a monthly basis - I suggest you get a second SDD when you need more space in future.
2) What is the max you're willing to spend?

My suggested parts:
http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/Xz7Byc -- I picked a random case - feel free to change that. If your budget is greater than that, I would first further upgrade the videocard as that is the single most important part for gaming. Get another harddrive in future when you need one.
