Hi!
My buddy is going to buy a new pc and wanted my help. His budget is 10000 swedish crowns, which is around 1000 euros.
I was thinking something like this.

Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z97P-D3

Cpu: i5 4690K

Gpu: ASUS GeForce GTX 970 4GB STRIX DC2 OC

Ram: ADATA 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3 CL9 1600MHz

Psu: Corsair CS650 650W

Hdd/Ssd : 1TB hdd and a 128gb ssd for the os


Should i change something or do you think this is good?

Your friend could use a good 3rd party cpu cooler and overclock that i5-4690k.
CM 212 EVO, Noctua NH-L12, Thermalright TS-140, CRYORIG H5 Universal to name just a few.
If he wont overclock then the i5-4460 and a H97 motherboard is all he will ever need.



is it for intensive gaming? u might want to get 16 GB ram (2x8), some people will say 8 is enough but nowadays games need a lot of ram especcialy if u want to have multiple monitors...

Thanks for the answers!
He will not get sli and he doesn't have multiple monitors. And the ram, cpu and motherboard is in a "upgrade" bundle so i'll stick with those ram, i have adata myself and they work nicely.
But i'll add a cpu cooler forgot about that :)
