Hello everyone,
i know that several threads exist about such topics, but since new updates occur to parts and prices, i am asking this question.
any advice on which parts to get to build a decent gaming rig ?
budget is up to 1.8 K, i don't want to order parts from amazon, i just want to get parts from local providers.
i just want it to last for few years not a year or two.
thank you for your help.

Any overclocking? Also just the case right?
ironman
Prefer not to overclock, and yes please, just the case, monitors are my next step
Thanks Avo

4790
MSI H97 GAMING
16GB/8GB HyperX Kingston
2TB HDD
256GB SSD (Nothing good available right now unfortunately, you can just get one later)
Any case you want (I recommend the Scout 2)
620W Antec PSU
GTX 780 (I really recommend not getting a GPU and getting a 980. ETA is in a few months)
Get a genuine version of Windows. Yes it's 109+VAT, but you use it for a whole decade, you'll get updates and official support which are very important for security. Not to mention it's legal.
I don't think I missed anything(?)

Thank you Avo :)
will check the cost of these parts and will update you.
