So now its Christmas and Ive gotten a wonderfull present – I’ll get a PC of my choice with the maximum budget 2 500 euro / 2120 pound.
I dont have a problem building it, but I could use some tips on what hardware to investigate in.
Any tips?
Spend half of that on the pc, the other half on booze and hookers.

You should never spend more than ~£800 on a computer you will use for gaming — anything more and you are just buying high-end hardware that won’t be “high-end” in a few years, and will have dropped in price substantially. You’d be better to buy a £600 PC and upgrade it component by component than blow all your money on one now and have to upgrade parts when the next big thing comes out.
You can’t futureproof a computer, so don’t try.

altough i would go for something around 800-850W PSU instead. so that you got yourself covered some years without spending too much money.

PSUs die easy (lots of moving components and reliance on placement, coils and the like). Don’t buy more wattage for no reason.
Asus P6T Deluxe v2
I7 950
GTX 580
Corsair HX-1000W
Samsung Spinpoint F4 2TB
6GB DDR3 1600mhz cl6
that would cost u like 1500€, get a good watercooling system and case for 700€ and overclock that cpu to 4.5ghz, get a 120hz monitor for 300€, and here u go 2500€ :D
