Hey,

I'm thinking of building a gaming pc for around €550 and was wondering could anyone tell me if the system is ok.

Sorry the names are probably a bit long because im a noob

Here are the parts

Processor:Amd fx 6350..

Power supply: Corsair builder series cx500 v3 non modular 80+ bronze 500watt..

Motherboard:Ga-970 ds3p amd 970

Hardrive:Toshiba Dt01aca series 500gb

Ram:8gb kit crucial ballistix sport series ddr3-1600 cl9

Network Adapter:tp-link tl-wn881nd

Case: Zalman Z1 midi tower

There ara a couple gpus i was looking at:
msi r9 280 3gb mit mantle und gaming evolved client,3gb ddr5
Or:
Club 3d radeon r9 270x royal queen dual fan mit mantle und gaming evolved client, 2gb gddr5

Anyway is this system ok and what gpu would you choose?

Is there anyparts you think are superior and i can get for the same price?

Id like to keep it below €550, its at €545 with the more expensive gpu.

Thanks a lot

i think the build is fine but you could get a stronger gpu .. you can get a r9 280 for less than $550 and they are way stronget than the r9 270x .. hope i helped

Hey thanks i saw a r9 280 that is around €180 or $243. Is this about right?

Also my friend said to get a 600 watt psu and a different motherboard so i could overclock the system,what do you think?

Thanks in advance
