Hey,
Reposting this because I didn't get any replies last time. Decided to upgrade from my laptop. I'd like to use this build in the next 3-4 years. Going to follow this template from the sticky.

Approximate Purchase Date: This week

Budget: 100 000 rsd (830€)

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Programming: in Pyhon, Java, C++... (I'm studying software engineering). Gaming: I'm no hardcore gamer. I play WoW, but I would also like to play the Witcher trilogy, Skyrim, GTA V and some other games probably. I hear GTA V is very demanding, so to make it clear, I wouldn't go for a great graphics card just to be able to play it at highest settings.

Are you buying a monitor: No

Parts to Upgrade: CPU, mobo, RAM, HDD, graphics card, PSU, case

Do you need to buy OS: No

Preferred Websites for Parts: Emmi, WinWin, Gigatron, Duocom

Location: Serbia

Parts Preferences: CPU: Intel i-5, GPU: Nvidia

Overclocking: No

SLI or Crossfire: No

Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080

Here are the parts I had in mind:

CPU: Intel Core i5-4460 23390 rsd (194€)
mobo: Gigabyte GA-H97-D3H ATX 13090 rsd (109€)
RAM: 8GB 1866MHz Kingston HyperX Savage CL9 8870 rsd (74€)
HDD: Western Digital Blue 1TB 6840 rsd (57€)
graphics card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 960 2GB G1 Gaming 31999 rsd (265€)
PSU: 550W Cooler Master G550M 7490 rsd (62€)
case: NZXT Source 220 5599 rsd (46€)
Total price: 97 278 rsd (807€)

I chose that 1x8gb RAM since it costs almost the same as 2x4gb kits which are either 1600MHz or CL10.
Went with an h97 mobo because I found in several threads here that it's the right chipset for the processor. However, would an h81 or b85 work? They're a bit cheaper.
Also, what do you think of the PSU? I've found good reviews about it. I also found these two: Antec VPF550 (specification) (not VP550F) and Thermaltake Smart SE SPS-530M.
Here are some other options: Emmi PSUs, WinWin PSUs, Gigatron PSUs, Duocom PSUs. I'd like to keep it under 10000 rsd (83€).

Thanks in advance for your help!
