So,

as I mentioned on another thread I'm about to build a new computer for myself, and so I thought I'd share some of my building fun with you. It's going to be a Mini ITX build, so I'm very excited about it.

I'll keep updating this post as I progress.

Motherboard arrived today ( 150€ )

The case I'll be using ( 130€ - includes server grade PSU and case fans in the top part )

Compared to my laptop:

and compared to my current PC:

UPDATE (don't mind the poor quality pictures please):

So here's the finished build.

Complete specs:
Mainboard: MSI 7920-001R Chipset: Z97
RAM: Kingston 4 GB (will probably get another 4 GB next week)
CPU: i5 4690 (stock fan, temperature not really going anywhere near max)
GPU: Radeon HD 7850 (the one I had in my old computer)
HDD: 640 GB
SSD: 240 GB
Case: EVGA Hadron Air (will probably change the two case fans, because they have no RPM control, and while the keep the case super cold, they are somewhat loud)

I will probably have another take at the interior to make the cable management a little bit cleaner.
Also, the more I look at it, the more I think it needs some LED lighting inside!

I'm quite busy, so unless it's a quick thing or really urgent I am unlikely to be able to answer PMs throughout the week, but I try to reach out to everyone who contacted me during the weekends. If it's urgent, you can also contact any of the supremes, they can do a lot of things or relay directly to me if necessary.

Looks cool.
I wounder what you have paid for it. Just to compare prices. But I can imagine that you feel no need to share this Smile

I suppose all of the components I use will be cheaper in almost all other EU countries. Pcsmash

Unfortunately only received the case today, so I'm still waiting for CPU and RAM.
Updated first post with pictures!

It looks nice and it's pretty small, which is cool.
What kind of graphic card are you going to buy? I bought myself
Gigabyte GeForce 640 DDR3 2 GB and it cost 80€ with discount from 136€. GTA IV and Farcry 3 runs just great, but on low graphic tho. My other parts might not be very good.
