im now at my choice of GPU, could use some advice for everything, many thanks for reading!
 
Supply us with a budget and we will be able to help you ALOT more :)

...becuz right now you have a 530w PSU picked, which is underpowered...if you want a gaming computer, with the top of the line 2600k...so give us more info
 
Ok first thanks for your fast reply! i guess 1500$-1700$ is a good range. Also i really want this M/B and CPU wich i think is really good actually for 'a gaming computer' (feel free to talk if theres something better for my actual use.) like you said im really unsure thought about the power supply! thanks in advance for your help.

ps; english isnt my first language so please dont hate!:)

also i dont need keyboard/screen..
 
Do you need an operating system?, and I see your not in the US, but..

I would buy this:

Cooler Master CM690 II Advance
Western Digital Black 1TB **NOTE** Some people have been saying Samsung is now greater than western digital?
Corsair Force GT 120GB
Corasir 750AX
EVGA 570
8GB Corsair Vengence 1600 DDR3
2600K
MSI P67A-GD65 **NOTE** this is a better value compared to the MSI P67A-GD80 you had picked
