Hi i'm building my first pc, i was trying to make a not-too-much-expensive-gaming pc and that's what i came up with, i'm a bit over the budget but it's not too bad.
That's the parts:
case- Corsair Carbide 200R Case

CPU- AMD AM3+ FX-6300 Box Processor CPU

graphics card- EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti Superclocked, 2GB DDR5, PCI-Express

RAM- G-SKILL Ripjaws-X Series - 2 x 4 GB DDR3-1866 - PC3-14900 - CL9 - (F3-14900CL9D-8GBXL)

Motherboard- ASUS 90-MIBJP0-G0EAY0MZ

Power supply- Corsair CX600, 600W

HDD-Western Digital WD10EZEX Caviar BLUE HardDisk SATA 1 TB, 64MB Cache

and then a "Cooler Master Devastator Kit" for keyboard and mouse, and a "Samsung LS22D300NY LCD Monitor 21.5 " for monitor.
Is it good? Is it bad? Any suggestions?
 
Caps=Capacitors. The CX only has one Japanese one and it's only rated at 85 degrees Celsius, with the other ones being teapo I'm pretty sure. Go with a lower wattage but higher quality unit. As for the budget, get some lower frequency RAM, performance difference will be tiny and price saving will be hefty.
 

What do you think about a cooler master rs-600? Isvit any better? I can't go over the 60-70€ price.

 


That particular cooler master PSU isn't great either. Best option for your price range at the moment is:

man is too expensive! in my country it costs 110€, it's almost the double of what i was wiiling to pay. is there something else at a lower price? if there isn't i think i'm gonna go with the cx600 and then change it if it has problems...
 

there's the LE version at 73€, the normal version at 77€ and the EVO version at 79€. which one should i take?
 

I found the "Fractal Design Integra M 650 Watt" do yo think is better? it was in tier 2 class B

Also (last question i promise), will the components fit in the case? i don't know so well how this works, so i would like to not have to cut a hole in the case to fit everything.

 
I'm not a fan of fractal power supplies, get an XFX 550w unit, they're a lot cheaper than the one 20salmon suggested. As for your case choice, the build quality of the 200R is quite bad, as with all corsair cases lately. If you don't need an ODD I highly suggest NZXT's S340, it's brilliant.
 

ok, i think everything's ready then, tomorrow morning i'll buy the components... Thanks for your help :)
 


CPU: AMD AM3+ FX-6300 Box Processor CPU
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 750 Ti Superclocked, 2GB DDR5, PCI-Express

And then for the case i'm still trying to decide... the one you suggested is big enough?
