# ATI Radeon GPU to be the gpu.

# 500GB of HDD

# RM60 DVD

# its AMD proc we're dealing here, so i'm thinking to spend more on heatsink and psu.


THANKS SIFU !

do u really want AMD processor?
maybe u can try Intel processor...

i asked him, he say confirm want AMD.

Phenom II x4 won't help much on photo/video editing

agreed.. Phenom II x4 was the tech from Few Years Back.. an i3 Proc can beat it easily in all single threaded apps..

cannot really tell this although I'm using Phenom II x4 955 BE, just follow his request and give him a quote lol.

Since you going for AMD, maybe you could get the NVidia which has CUDA for helping you in editing

Shall you pick the NVidia, please spend lil' of your time reading thing article Adobe Creative Suite family

although right now i`m using phenom II x4 955
i will recommend using intel processor
just like all sifus here said..

i don't know when i can
have the chance to try Intel processor...

same goes with me. rather later got ppl complain about bottleneck n hot , u will have chance if ur cpu die

sifus, can give comment on the following rig? is it ok? OC stable? all prices from viewnet.. budget 4-4.5k but as minimum as possible..

intel i5 3570k - RM699
Asrock Z77 Extreme 4 - RM489
LG DVD Drive - RM64
4GB x 2 KVR - RM126
WD HDD 1TB - RM244
Intel 330 Series 120GB - RM319
Corsair 400R casing - 359
MSI GTX670 OC - 1299
Corsair TX650W - 379
Monitor - Dell U2312HM or any other good 23" led monitor..
As for the cooler, should i take CM hyper212 Evo + 2 scythe gentle typhoon or thermaltake bigwater A80 cooler with a scythe gentle fan?

Why don't just use the stock cooler and save money and get watercooling ?

i'l be carrying my case to and from certain places, juz wondering if i put in a watercooling set, wouldnt it be harmful during travel?

OC stable put aside, coz it depend on the invidual skill, knowledge plus luck
Not all processor born to be golden chip~

ic sifu.. btw, curious.. the stated PSU, is it good enuff if i were to OC to around 4.2ghz? can it support?

For such spec, the PSU could handle it fine~

If your radiator inside I don't think so. You can think about taking bitfenix prodigy because the lab function or you can take corsair vengeance casing. Both build for lan purpose.

when it comes to 'RECOMMENDING'..do u want this thread recommends trash?suggesting parts is not easy.You're about to tell people what best for them to buy..if people with ZERO knowledge,and u recommend them crap,how?same goes like Seasonic n Cooler Master Extreme Plus...which u recommend?
