So my computer specs are:
-Antec Eleven Hundred Case
-Intel Core i5-3550
-MSI Z77 M Power MotherBoard
-Patriot Viper Ram 8gb 2400MHz
-Video Card I haven't decided. Possibly Radeon R9 270x
-WD 2TB Performance Retail Kit 7200RPM
-Coolmax 700W 80 Plus Certified PSU
-1 TrueQuiet 120mm White Fan

P.S: This will be the computer I will use for my YouTube channel as well. If you don't know what it is, it is SuperEliteBox (882 subs currently)

Go with the r9 270x(or 7870). It can play every game on ultra settings at 1080p at a reasonable price. Spending more money is just a waste. With all things considered, the 270x(or 7870) is the smartest graphics card anyone can buy today. I see no reason why any gamer needs anything more than it. Hope this helps!

Is the currency USD though? Because $400 is a big difference if you change currencies.

I recommend you change the case to Fractal Design Define R4. That is the best case i find with a prize $50 - $200 and is coming in at around $120.

If you have money the Intel Core I5 4670k is far superior to the 3550

Its useless to waste money on 2400MHZ ram since it still wont affect your gaming experience with more than 1 - 2 fps.

Also buying an hard disk with 2 TB is a true waste of money i dont think you will need more than 1TB for your youtube channel.

I recommend the NVIDIA GTX 580 or NVIDIA GTX 770 for the best possible performance. (The Nvidia GTX 580 is as fast as the 770)

Well this is only recommended if you have alot of money cause it is indeed alot more expensive.

-Best Regards Andre

The gtx 580 is not as fast as the 770 at all. However it is half the price of the 770, so it's up to him.

That RAM isn't worth paying extra for, just get whatever 8 gb kit of RAM is the cheapest. Also, that Hard Drive is overpriced. You can get a 2tb WD Caviar Blue or Seagate Barracuda for way less. As for your GPU i'd suggest a 770 o a r9 280x. Get a better PSU, CoolMax isn't one of the best PSU brands. Here are some better PSUs:
EVGA 600B
Corsair CX600M

That RAM is definitely not worth it, RAM comes at a clock speed of 1333MHz and to get it any higher you have to overclock it via the BIOS and some motherboards only support up to 2133MHz RAM, faster RAM also makes almost no difference at all, if I were you I'd stick with 8gb (2x4GB sticks for dual channel) of 1600MHz RAM and then use the extra money to upgrade your graphics card, you'll have a lot more difference if you upgrade your graphics rather than your RAM.
