Hello! I try to build a pc for the first time. It should be a gaming rig (gaming is the more important thing), but I also play around with photoshop/blender/unity. I have a budget of around 900-1000 euros. Also the rig should be as silent as possible, without sacrificing too much power or spending too much money for silence.

So far I chose these components:
-Case: Fractal Design Define R4
-PSU: Be quiet! Pure Power CM BQT L8-CM-630W
-Motherboard: ASUS M5A97 Evo R2.0
-RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2x4 Gigabyte
-CPU: FX-8350
-GPU: Gigabyte Radeon HD 7950
-HDD: WD Black 1TB
-SDD: Samsung 840 EVO 120 GB

What do you think about that list of components? Please share you thoughts! I am really curious about your opinions. Some tips for what things I should watch out when building my first pc would be awesome! Thank you all in advance!

Thank you very much for the quick answer! How do you know the nanaoxia case is more silent? I locked it up at amazon, looks interesting! Yeah I will definetly buy an extra cpu-cooler, but the ones your recommended are maybe a little bit to expensive. Why do you think they are worth the money and i shouldn't take a cheaper one? Could you recommend a cheaper cpu-cooler that is silent too? What about the arctic freezer xtreme for example?

For the PSU: I wanted a quiet psu, didnt know what else i should chose, do you know a better one? Thanks! Greetings from Austria!
 


thanks!
