Yes, it is one of those threads again. I don't have much knowledge in building a good gaming machine, so I was hoping you guys would help me out. Budget for it is 1 300 € and hoping it shouldn't be obsolete in by next year or 2. Smile

Thanks forward

Something like http://pcpartpicker.com/p/14XzJ ?

Alternatively, swap out the 770 for two GTX 660's and whenever Nvidia / AMD comes with something new, you sell em and buy the new thang.

mmmmm NZXT Switch <3

That's a case you get if you're water cooling through. It has good airflow but it's HUGE and will have a lot of wasted room.

Mine for reference

I'd prefer the NDSL with a flashcart, I'm rather partial to M3Real, as then you can access the enormous DS and GBA/GB catalogue ^_^

The only reason I prefer the M3Real is the GBA compatibility courtesy of the bundled GBA cart, something R4 didn't have unless you have a companion SlotB card such as - like you said - F2A Ultra. The M3 launches GB/GBA ROMs from SD plugged into the M3. I bought my mum one for her NDLS and she loves it Very Happy
