Yea and get the h77 mobo will do

Another forumer recommende ASRock Z77 Extreme and Asus P8Z77-M.

What about them? Are they overclockable?

I do not have good experience with Asus. Used to have a mobo and gpu, where both of them broke within 12 months of usage.

Thanks. Any ideas about rams? Should I get 2 x 8GB (keep empty slots for future upgrade) or 4 x 4GB? I guess normal value rams would do for me?

Which version of Microsoft Windows should I get? Windows 7 or 8?

for me, I think 2x8GB is better choice. less stress on memory controller and 2 sticks of course consume less power than 4 sticks.

SSD go for Intel 520 for reliability and superb support service.

Thanks, I guess Intel is the way to go then!

I will not be doing any CF or SLI at all (might not even install a graphic card now). What do you guys think about ASRock Z77 Pro4-M? Is this the ASRock version of Asus P8Z77-M? Or I should go for ASRock Z77 Extreme4-M instead?

I agree on the RAM sticks, not too sure abt the stress and power but it'll definitely enable you to place a max of 32GB in the future

Intel supposedly have great aftermarket services so go with that

Will take your advice! I have decided on these. What do you guys think?

Processor: Intel Core™ i7-3770K

Motherboard: ASRock Z77 Pro4-M

Rams: Kingston ValueRAM DeskTop Memory 8GB Module - DDR3 1600MHz KVR16N11H/8 - 2 Units

SSD: Intel® Solid-State Drive 520 (120GB)

O/S: Microsoft Windows 7 or 8?

Email Glodon support to know software compatibility with Win8 as the link show up to Win7 64bit.

You mentioned that you won't overclock it, no need take K version, and the motherboard can go for H77 variants.

Will go for those overclock capable setup. I think the price is not a big different.

okay, then you're good to go. If you want go for win8 you might want to do some compatibility check first.

Ok, thanks! Scouting for the best price now. Any recommended online seller or shop to purchase in Klang Valley?

Hi guys, wanna ask any mobo match the Asrock B75M-DGS? budget & performance +- the b75. preferably asus @ intel. same goes for FSP HEXA 500W 80Plus, preference are cm @ huntkey. thanks!

Sapphire 7770OC Edition is about RM450 but i'd recommend you up your budget a lil to get a Sapphire 7850 around RM590? If want new games on ultra or high your going to need a bigger budget.

How big are we talking? 1k...? 2k? if so what else do i need to change?
And if i get Sapphire 7850, will i be able to play hon and dragon nest without any lags?

Mmm I guess invest in a GTX670 around 1k. With your processor it might bottleneck it's performance a little but you can always get a better processor in the future and even with the bottleneck of your proc your going to see a MASSIVE performance gain when compared to your old card.

Yes 7850 those games no problem whatsoever but if your asking for latest games high or ultra maybe not.
