    Hello,
    Looking for some advice please on components for a budget gaming PC. I'm looking to upgrade 4 parts.
    Mainly used for red orchestra 2 and minecraft. I had a decent GPU - gigabyte 660.

    I need a PSU - 500w
    Motherboard
    CPU
    Cooler

    Budget: would be possible under €300
    Have used hardwareversands before.
    Thanks

    i3 4160 €120
    H81M board €60
    500w BeQuiet PSU €60

    Buy from Amazon, alternate, mind factory or computer universe, HWVS is gone down the pisser.

    Could out remaining budget into a stronger GPU, or get an i5 4460 alternatively
