    Hello.
    I am new to Boards and I am also a new to building a PC so please bear with me. I need to buy a desktop PC for my own Graphic Design & printing business which I am starting up. I will not be doing web design or video work...print only. My budget is 700-800 euro.

    Therefore I need a PC that has high RAM, fast processor, good graphics card and good monitor. My friend has helped me come up with the following spec from hardwareversand but I would like some advice before I go ahead with my order as its a big investment for me!

    The Following is the components we have chosen:
    - LG GH24NS bare schwarz
    - Thermaltake V4 Black Edition ohne Netzeil
    - MSI R9 270 Gaming 2G, AMD Radeon R9 270, 2GB DDR5
    - ASUS PCE-N15
    - 8GB-Kit G-Skill RipJaws PC3-12800U CL9
    - Seagate Barracuda 7200 2000GB SATA 6Gb/s
    - AMD FX-8320 Processor, Boxed, Sockel AM3+
    - Samsung Monitor S22C350H
    - Super-Flower Amazon 80Plus 550w
    - ASRock 970 Extreme3 R2.0, AM3+, ATX
    - Rechner Zusammenbau

    I will be using Adobe CS, high internet use, running multiple programs simultaneously, connected to an OKI ES360 A3 printer.
    So I would just like some advice on whether this is a good build for my needs and if all the components are compatible and/or reliable?

    Thank you in advance.:)

    Firstly make sure you use Geizhals.de discount site for hardwareversand.

    Try add an after market cooler AMD 8000 series run hot.

    If you don't need the 2 tb. Get the Seagate sshd 1tb 65 euro. Faster than the 2 tb.

    Hello SterlingArcher, thanks for your advice.

    Like I said I am a newbie to PC building so I need to ask...
    Is Geizhals.de a separate company/site from hardwareversand or are they connected?
    I presume you have used either/both of them, so you find them reliable?

    I will look into the other 2 suggestions you made.
    But other than those, do you think this is a good build for my needs?

    Thanks.
