Oh, budget is between 1200 Euros and 1500 Euros.

Corsair is the thing here in Sweden. They dont sell much BeQuiets.

120GB SSD to 250GB SSD sounds like it will be anotha 100 Euros? WOnt I just be fine with 120gb SSD (Windows 8, Skyrim, Oblivon, The Witcher 3 and Dragon Age Inquisition) + 1.5TB HDD?

What do you mean CPU heatsink? I forgot what that is. If I buy a CPU it has a fan included and those metal rails it stands on, then I put that cooling paste between the metal and the CPU. It works like that with AMD FX-8350 too, doesn it?

You don't want to cool your CPU with the stock cooler do you? Do you have a high tolerance for noise? If not then you need a proper heatsink, especially for an AMD CPU which just gets crazy warm. The Thermalright HR-02 Macho is really a staple in most gaming PCs. It's very cool and quiet for its price.

Have you decided yet on which 290 you will get? When it comes to noise, cooling and OC I prefer the Asus DirectCU the most. But you can't really go wrong with MSI Twin Frozr, Gigabyte Windforce or Sapphire  Tri-X.

 

So are those Thermalright HROS2s heatsinks commonly available? How much cost and does it mean I will b able to overclock the processur?

I have a high noice tolerance because that's what I'm used to and on top of that I use head-phones. So I will only get a cool/silent solution if it benefits the grafix performance.

I have decided to go for a R9 290 Gigabyte Windforce.
