Right so I want to be able to play 6s with approximately 150 to 200 fps with mumble open in the background. I'd prefer it to be dx90 as well but if it makes much of a difference I could also stick to dx8. That's bascially all I am asking for. The problem is that I have virtually no idea about computer specs so building one myself is not an option. I also haven't really decided on the budget yet.
Any suggestions?

do you know what type of a computer you can build with this money

I'm a little shocked that PC only comes with a 256GB SSD stock.

Build it yourself. Trust me, all you need is a few hours of research and you'll be fine. Not to mention you will save a ton of money doing so.
Anything with a modern intel quad core cpu would kill tf2 at dx9

1) alright lets say ~1000€ roughly.
2) Are there any websites destined for that cause I have been looking around quite a bit and haven't really found anything.

i highly recommend building a pc
i built mine like last month and its been wonderful
yes, it is like putting a puzzle together if you have the manual
I recommend getting a decent case as i got a pretty small case and a small mobo
I had to limit myself at 700 i think(?) cause i bought the new 144hz benq

Well you don't really need to learn about all the different parts and specs because someone here hopefully will suggest a build, but pcpartspicker could be a good resource, and tomshardware makes lists of top components for various price ranges, although there will certainly be discrepancies depending on your specific needs. Once you know what parts you want, just watch a youtube video of someone doing a build, or try to just google an online guide. It really is just as easy as playing with expensive legos, and as long as you are careful its pretty hard to screw up. When stuck, just look at the installation instructions that come with whatever parts you ordered. The only issue I had on my first build was a faulty motherboard, and most companies have very good RMA systems, so I had it replaced free of charge withing a week.

Since you're a german guy: alternate.de has one of the best pc-configurators online, possibly the best. Pick your hardware, compatibility will be checked automatically, keep track of your budget, let the system be build together for you, in case you don't know how to, and enjoy. Might be a bit pricey but you will get quality hardware and fast, reliable service.

alternate.de charges 100€.
hardwareversand.de charges 30€ (frequently promotions for 5/10/15/20€, I think I still got a code lying around). And the prices are lower aswell.

Hey dude, don't be afraid to build it yourself!
I had never done it before either, the only experience I ever had was to swap the HDD of my old laptop... so basically I had no idea how to build one properly.
There are sooo many guides and nice people around that will help you pick the right parts and building it the right way!
In the end it feels just like building something a little bit more difficult out of Lego, and afterwards it is so rewarding :D

Fuck all these people who are calling you a pussy. Im going to give you what u want, if i did not have friends who knew how to build i pc i would have never built my own.
If you want a Custom Gaming Pc here is what i know.
Digital Storm.
Alienware(Pretty overpriced)
Razer Laptop
Finally i would strongly suggest NCIX where you pick all the parts and they build it for you. If you need help with parts go to the PC parts thread. For plus 50 dollars they build the PC.

building a pc is like buying an ikea closet, or whatever..
you click thing A1 into thing A2, you screw screw B1 into slot B2. repeat few times.. and you're done!
every motherboard comes with a manual, and that manual has all the steps written in there.
they're as easy to read, understand and follow as the manual that comes with the average desk, closet, bed, or whatever else you can think of.
the internet is full of information and people willing to answer questions if you feel uncertain about something.
anyway; i hope you can get some confidence to go ahead and manually put it together. it saves a lot of money, and you will end up with a better rig :)
and a nice bonus is that sweet satisfaction you feel, after you put in the last piece, close the case up, start the pc.. and your beast-pc is alive!
