Go for a XFX, MSI, or Sapphire rx 480 8GB
like this - 239 Euro

the gigabyte card isn't very good.

Look for a better make case (Zalam re terrible) - see corsair
i.e this is an m-atx case

I would Aslo get a SSD Or A M.2 SSD or 120GB or 250GB as you OS Drive or you machine won't be as fast as you'll want it to be. HDD Are okay but thats really for data.

The motherboard you listed could be improved and save money i.e. this m-atx size baord is 91 euro

Your cpu is an i5 but is rated a 3ghz - is that high enough - see if you can find reviews on it and its performance.

One last important point if you getting a monitor, and you are getting a rx480, then buy a freesync monitor. the cheapest 24" one I can find in amazon de is this 159 euro

Now think how much have you saved in getting a freesync monitor instead of a g-sync monitor!

If you can afford it get 16GB ram or at least a 1 * 8gb stick and then you can get another later!

AOC and LG have cheap FreeSync monitors:

1) The cheapest: AOC G2460VQ6
24", 1980x1080, 75 hz, TN, 170$
FreeSync range: 48-75hz
https://www.amazon.co.uk/AOC-G2460VQ6-24-Inch-LED-Monitor/dp/B015510R4M


2) High refresh rate: AOC G2460PF
24" 1980x1080, 144 hz, TN, 210$
FreeSync range: 35-144 hz
http://www.amazon.com/AOC-G2460PF-24-Inch-Gaming-Monitor/dp/B01BV1XBEI


3) Cheapest ultrawide: LG 29UM68-P
29", 2560 x 1080, 75 hz, IPS, 350$
FreeSync range: 40-75 hz
http://www.amazon.com/LG-Electronics-UltraWide-29UM68-P-LED-lit/dp/B01B9IDLAW/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1465081379&sr=1-1&keywords=lg+29um68

My personal choice will be the LG + RX 480 / 490.
Edit: That LG's FreeSync range might be expandable to 32-80 hz (LFC sweetspot), source:

Convincetemi a non prendere il suo fratello maggiore: https://www.amazon.it/AOC-G2590PX-Monitor-Speaker-Regolabile/dp/B078S36M7Y/ref=lp_16068409031_1_7?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1542962417&sr=1-7&th=1


Considerando che non ho ancora un pc da gaming e che lo farò l'anno prossimo. Per ora lo userei per cazzeggio e film.

Convincetemi vi prego, che ho la scimmia.

Vorrei l'altro a 110 120 euro. Secondo voi me la rischio e lo metteranno in offerta?

That is because there are 2 "Styles" of the same monitor. But one is 144Hz without freesync and the other is up to 75Hz Freesync, the reviews are for both models.

This is the monitor

using a 1070 with Display Port.

Updating drivers seems to have fixed it for now.

Thanks for the reply and thanks /u/S4L4MANDER

Here's a decent looking one for £100: https://www.amazon.co.uk/AOC-G2460VQ6-Monitor-DisplayPort-response/dp/B015510R4M/

Would the below be ok?

For the cable would this work? I just have a generic 1080p 60hz monitor at the moment but want to run two monitors

Which of these monitors would be the best to pair with an RX 480?

I think, not for sure though (I thing that I have 120hz), I went from playing on Geforce Now on a Mac to playing on a beefy computer

High FPS gaming = i7-7700K, and fast ram, and a gpu above the GTX 1060. Since the 1070 is overpriced currently I went directly to a GTX 1080. In Germany the 1080 Ti is too expensive anyway, which makes this the right pick. The disks are as requested, and the case is a good one, also fits colour-wise (black).

I would not add the SD card reader as a requirement to the case, too uncommon by now. Rather get an USB model like https://www.amazon.de/Transcend-TS-RDF5K-Kartenlesegerät-MicroSDHC-microSDXC/dp/B009D79VH4/, it only costs 8€.

For a gaming PC wifi is really not the right choice. You should connect via cable, and if ethernet is not an option look at powerline adapters. But you can add a wifi card like https://www.amazon.de/Gigabyte-GC-WB867D-I-Netzwerkkarte-Braun/dp/B00HXCGKZC/ if wifi is really the only way to get this machine online.

The display remains. You should get a 144Hz display, and if you really want a second one that one could be a regular 1080p 60Hz display, you won't play on the two at the same time, right? A sound combination would be https://www.amazon.de/AOC-G2460PF-Reaktionszeit-Displayport-FreeSync/dp/B01BV1XBEI/ + https://www.amazon.de/dp/B015510R4M/

Woah. Thank you. This was very comprehensive guide. Prices in Spain are usually a bit more expensive, specially the monitors. RAM is quite well priced, I could lower the price to aroud 60$ pero 16GB if I purchase a lower brand.

And, yes, the computer will be used for gaming (also for work but I don't require anything special). I feel that point 3 is for FPS and MOBA like games, which I'm not very fan of, so I'll look into response time and refresh rates.


I've checked the Asus VG248QE and really liked it. Is ranging at 270€ but considering the feautures I'm almost sold. The other 2 ones are ranging a 700€ here, they're out of the cuestión.

This one, AOC G2460VQ6, recently got on sale so I can get it for around 150€. It has same resolution and 1ms response time but a much lower refresh rate of 83Hz(?). This one is Free-Sync compatible and since I have a Nvidia will be unused, but I dont mind taking and AMD once the next gen hits. I'll have to think this out, since its a 120€ difference, but the Asus seems so much better.

this good for a replacement?

https://www.amazon.co.uk/AOC-Monitor-Response-Adaptive-G2460VQ6/dp/B015510R4M 115 pounds but a great monitor. 1ms, displayport, hdmi with cables included. Using it right now and works like a charm for me. A little higher than your price point but a great monitor. There is also a 22 inch of this that you might like altough i cant find it on amazon

Both of these monitors are the same price atm:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/AOC-I2369VM-inch-HDMI-Monitor/dp/B00BDBWE0Y/ref=sr_1_46?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1466631240&sr=1-46&keywords=monitor

https://www.amazon.co.uk/AOC-G2460VQ6-Anti-Blue-Adaptive-Compatible/dp/B015510R4M/ref=sr_1_47?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1466631240&sr=1-47&keywords=monitor

I like both, and i have a gtx 980 so im wondering which i should pick?

Thanks, I'll take a look!

Now I'm comparing the XF240H to this G2460VQ6 which is £50 less, but I suppose I might as well get an IPS monitor 75hz if I'm not going for 144hz!

Is it worth getting the 144hz monitor with a RX580?

After some googling I also found this, seems not bad, and even cheaper!

Alright, changed a few things.

I'm no expert in coolers really, but I've always heard that noctua ones are the best air coolers out there, while corsair usually has the most popular AIO water coolers, so you could start you research from this (example of corsair water cooler)

I put in a better mobo which should, in theory, be more reliable (although I'm not sure that's true. Some people claim that ASRock mobos are not as reliable as asus, msi or gygabyte ones since they cost less, while others claim that they don't give any problem. Not sure where the truth lies. Anyway this asus one also as a few cool things, like auto-OC. Also keeps the usb 3.1 A and 3.1 C as the asrock mobo).

kb+m, added the best ones out there, your choice now (ps the corsair k70 costs 144 on amazon though, 187 with RGB. PCPartPicker has it wrong :/. The logitech g502 is also much cheaper)

As for the monitor it really depends on the gpu and on your needs. If you are ok with a 1080p panel and you want an nvidia gpu, get a good IPS panel and be done with it. (example 1, example 2, example 3).

G-Sync monitors are usually waaay to pricy. Seriously, nvidia should cut the shit down, it's stupid that you can't get a gsync monitor for under 500€...

If you instead go the red route, you can get a freesync monitor cheaply on amazon (but they usually aren't IPS). (example 1-75hz, example 2-144hz)

If you want a higher res panel, then you should get a 1440p one. Gaming at 4K is not really feasible IMHO, even with a gtx1080. (example 1, example 2)

If you do a lot of editing and stuff you could also be interested in a 21:9 monitor (example 1example 2, example 3)

edit: high end new gen amd cards come out this winter BTW. Check news for Vega architecture.
