Hello!
I´ve decided recently to build my own gaming rig (for gaming (duh)) and i´ve come up with a list of components. Budget is 800-900 Euro, already have a 1TB 3,5´´ HDD with windows 8, a monitor, keyboard and mouse.
Components are:

-Intel Core i5-4690 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor

-Gigabyte GA-Z87X-D3H ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

-Asus Radeon R9 290 4GB DirectCU II Video Card

-Corsair Vengeance 12GB (3 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

-Corsair Force LS Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

-NZXT H440 (Orange/Black) mid case

-Corsair CSM 750W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply

It all adds about up to 1177 USD or 869 Euro.
Any feedback, changes or upgrades i should make?
Thanks!

I honestly like NVIDIA GPUs better than the Radeons, but you can do what you want. Also, I have heard from another fellow that he dislikes the 750D due to the fact that it is quite loud. So I would personally look into a different case, but it is up to you.

How about the NZXT H440 (Orange/Black) case? I also looked up some nvidia graphic cards but i prefer the radeon for the games it supports. Also, anyone know if that GPU is good for SLI?
