Need help deciding PC components for upcoming build

[Filera]

Hi!

I just signed up and hope this goes like it should.

So I need some help with my upcoming PC build. It's my first self built. I don't really have a budget, but I prefer the cheapest choice that meets my criteria. Mainly a gaming PC that will last.

I already have Intel Core i7-4770K and Asus NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 DirectCU II, but I'm pretty much lost with the other parts. I don't really have much knowledge in the brands. So:

-What motherboard should I get? The i7-4770K has overcloking potential so Z87 I reckon? Under 200€?
- What PSU is sufficient? Should it be modular or not? Under 100€?
- What RAM? What Speed? 8GB is sufficient nowadays for gaming right?
- What chassis? Silence and airflow is golden. Sleek look. Under 100€?
- SSD or HDD or both? OS on SSD and games in HDD? What setup is the most useful?
- Win 7 or Win 8?
- And something you would recommend? And mention if I forgot something crucial.

And if possible color scheme black and red? Or am I asking too much?

And I had to use euros because I live in Finland. Sorry for my English if theres something you didn't understand.

Thanks in advance.

These are the parts I would recommend, you would need to locate them at a site that ships to you, I believe Amazon does ship internationally. But treat this as a template

Is Asus Maximus VI Hero really worth the money? Any experiences?

 

[Transmaniacon]

I don't think so, it might do a little better with overclocking, but you are paying for the appearance mainly.

 

[Filera]

Yeah... But it's nice to have some overclocking features for the future. And I prefer Asus.

 

[RazerZ]

Yeah... But it's nice to have some overclocking features for the future. And I prefer Asus.

Asus Z87-A would be a good option.

 

[Filera]

What do you think buying these some of these parts used? Like motherboard etc.?

E: After doing some research, used components arent an option.

 

[Filera]

CPU: Intel Core i7-4770K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Going with the Intel stock cooler for a while
Motherboard: This is a dead end for me... The VI Hero might be a bit too premium for me
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB 1600mHz CL9... Seemed legit?
Storage: Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD ... After checking out my current PC the 120gb isnt enough for me
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Black 1TB ... Has a longer warranty
Video Card: Asus GeForce GTX 780 3GB DirectCU II Video Card
Case: Fractal Design Define R4 Black Pearl (Not windowed)
Power Supply: Would a 550W PSU be sufficient? Found XFX TS and XFX XTR, both were 80+ Gold and not a bad price.
Optical Drive: Some Asus drive that was cheap so going with that
Operating System: Windows 7 for me... The 8/8.1 seems so tablet orientated


Any thoughts?

 

[Suztera]

I wouldn't bother with the warranty on the hard drive. But if you want it then buy it.
