okay, so how much would a PSU cost if I would buy that extra? from some other company / store?

that package looks like a great deal, but it seems now you've cut the price down to 700 US dollars from 1000, is there any chance you can raise the price to around 900 again just by adding, I don't know, more RAM or a better video GFX card? :p

I know it sounds stupid, but maxing out my budget is something that I'd like to do if it gets me further in my purchase .

If you click his link Thingie and then click the button that says "
Konfigurera systemet" it will take you to a more detailed look at what he has. The components are listed by manufacturer and model number so that is in English lol. They did not specify a PSU though but I was assuming they were going to use a cooler master like the Case so that is what i priced out for him.

I also couldn't tell what OS you were lookibng for Decai so I left it out.

You also never answered if that one comes with a monitor, mouse and keyboard for that price.

EDIT: LOL somehow my copy paste created a link to the page.

Well since we have you talked into building lol, let me direct you to this thread that Carbon made. It's a long post but but with more useful information packed into such a small space than i have ever seen. It gives you a brief description of all the components and WHY he recommends what he recommends. He has suggestions for the levels of build, low budget, mid budget and high budget. Also the prices on some of the components has dropped since his last update of it so you can get more for your money now.

EDIT: Crap I forgot the link again lol. http://www.computer-juice.com/forums...station-18844/

Building it scares me, so Id probably end up bringing the parts to the shop I buy it from and make the guys there make it for me :P on and Newegg doesn't ship to Sweden :( only USA and Canada.
