would be nice to know exactly what you need. knowing if you need a keyboard/mouse and a monitor will completely change your build if your on a 300-400 euro budget. but for starters and assuming you need an os...

Yes i have monitor,mouse etc, sorry i forgot to mention that :)
Can i play old games on win8 like Thief deadly shadows from steam?
Can i use old cases? like hp workstation xw8200's ?
Another Question about that motherboard: If i want to do SMALL upgrades in future, do i need to buy new mobo?
I don't necessarily need case,Hard drive,Optical drive.
So i don't need to use money to them and i can spent it on litle bit better parts.
So any recommendations? :)
