HELL LOT OF DIFFERENCE, google youtube to see the comparison

simply Youtube for SSD vs HDD.. and hold your jaws

hie sifus, would like to ask can we actually can have a internal speaker for our rig? bcz i dun feel like buying external speaker n there is not much of choices for monitor with build in speaker in the market.

u could wait for the i3 3220 to come out around this month, i would rather spend more on the graphics card instead of the processor since its for gaming

im using browser at the same time gaming , thats why considering i5 now.
which graphic card do you recommend ..by budget around 2k , bt nw have to go up to 2.5k

With 2.5k,u can afford 21.5" monitor n i5 3470..

Intel i5-3470 RM584
MSI B75MA-P45 RM224
MSI HD7850 Power Edition RM849
Kingston Value Ram 4GB x2 RM128
WD Blue 500 GB RM199
FSP Hexa 500W RM149
Xigmatek Asgard Pro/Strike One Advance RM170
Any DVD rom/writer RM60
Acer V203HC RM279

Total: RM2642

Optional:
i3-2120 RM359
i3-3220 RM379 (coming around this month)
Sapphire VAPOR-X HD 7770 GHz EDITION OC 1GB RM479
AOC E2250SWD RM379

i3 and i5 almost the same since they both have 4 threads, but the i5 is a little bit faster since it has 4 physical cores

This spec is good but can get lower price

Intel core i5 3450 rm555
Kingston value 4gb x2 rm124

Just opt for sapphire hd 7850 oc rm759 is good enough , save the money for view sonic vx2250vm rm350

All prices from jayacom

was looking at the viewnet's price list, dint have viewsonic and i forgot to include the sapphire

Guys, helping a friend here and found this spec under gaming rig budget RM2k without monitor. Are these items enough for rendering and do some 3D works? Main usage 3D editing and multimedia stuff, will need to render etc. And I thought of upgrading the CPU to i5. Any suggestion? budget 2.5k with monitor.

Intel I3-2100 RM339
MSI B75MA-P45 RM224
MSI HD7850 Twin Frozr RM849
Kingston Value Ram 4GB RM64
WD Blue 1TB HDD RM254
FSP Hexa 500W RM149
Xigmatek Asgard Pro/CM Elite 311+/Strike One Advance [casing] RM170
Any DVD rom/writer RM60

Total: RM2054 + 55

If mainly rendering , change to intel core i7 3770 rm909 , change 7850 to palit/leadtek 550ti rm369 , throw in another 4gb stick then it's good to go

Hi Guys,

Able to make some recommendation on my planned rigs?

I'm looking for below items with budget 2k - 2.5k, i knew total up is already exceed my budget but i will try to lower down it.

PSU - Corsair TX750M MYR435 / Corsair HX650 MYR435
Processor - Core i5 3550 (1155 socket) MYR645
Motherboard - Asus P8Z77-V MYR619 / Fatal1ty Z77 Professional-M MYR 599
Graphic card - Gigabyte GV-N56GOC-1GI MYR669
SSD - Force 3 120GB MYR360
Casing - Bitfenix Shinobi MYR190
RAM - CMX4GX3M2A1600C9 MYR138

Mainly use for web surf and some game [not a hardcore gamer.]


Thanks.

Dont:
need 750W/650W
need high end Z77 motherboard since ur not overclocking, a H77 would do
get Corsair SSD
need 1600MHZ Ram

Thanks all for the answer, sound like it good to have SSD for OS installation and secondary HDD for data storage, is that what you guys normally setup ?

o wait, thats what he meant

That's how I setup . And I believe most SSD users do the same
