CPU-Cooler - Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - 25 euro (Since you're total real beginner, don't use liquid cooling, it's really advanced and quite expensive)
Motherboard - Asus P8Z77-V LX - 110 euro
RAM - Corsair Vengeance CML8GX3M2A1600C9 Low Profile (2x4GB) - 45 euro
Graphics Card choice 1 - Cheap Power - Asus GTX560-Ti DCII 2DI/1GD5 (TOP version) - 220 euro

PSU - XFX Pro 550W - 60 euro
HDD - Seagate Barracuda ST1000DM003, 1TB - 75 euro
Optical Drive - LG GH24NS90 Black - 15 euro
OS - Windows 7 - 64 Bit Professional - 130 euro (Hardly a price difference with Home these days)

High Power: 1230 euro
But if you're looking for 500 euro max... don't expect anything that can play Battlefield 3 smoothly...
Well... I can probably get some money help from grandparents and such so... at this point I really don't know EXACTLY what price point, but thats probably the amount I will pay. Prices will probably drop in the next 4-5 months, right? Christmas sales too...
