Quite good, for that budget i have to say.

And yea, no problem there. Can upgrade to any better 1155 socket Intel CPU, add RAM, or upgrade GPU or add HDD; any time you want later on.

Oh okay.. Thanks
Wait!! How about operating system?? Windows 7 right, should you buy it or do they give free?? Lol, if buy how much then? never were into the pc stuff all this while with console only :/

Also, does it include keyboard mouse speakers headset all? Or should I have extra cash in hand to buy them.. if so suggestions for good quality and not so expensive?

Since u say u can fork out some more money,
Can get Sapphire VAPOR-X HD7770 RM479
or get a bigger monitor at RM279, oso acer, very lazy find the model

I used i3 2100 about a year..and it is just for gaming,nothing else..the rig served me very well..nothing goes wrong n everything was smooth as silk..

1155 socket will give you a lot of future upgrading options : i5,i7 or even Xeon..

Bottom line,go for chocobo7779's suggested parts n I believe you won't regret

okay scratch my previous comment, Windows 7 Home Basic is at RM229, or u can go find er Jack Sparrow if u know what i mean

u can spend the extra money maybe on like a Logitech Keyboard Mouse set and a good pair of speakers

Greetings,
I would like to seek for sifu's advise.

I plan to get a gaming rig with the budget of 2k or less. After doing some research here and there, this is my build:

Intel i3 2120 - RM365
Asus B75-M - RM240
Kingston 4GB - RM70
Saphire 7850 OC 2GB - RM760
Seagate 750GB - RM209
LiteOn DVD Writer - RM59
CM Elite 311+ - RM115
Corsair CX500 - RM200

Total: RM2018

Is it worth to take HD7850 OC 2GB?
Is the PSU sufficient for this build?
With this budget, can I get a better gaming build?

Really need advise from sifu here. Thank you.

alternative for the mobo - msi b75ma-p45 rm224 (2 more ram slots)
gpu worth to buy but where u get those pricing?
make sure the psu is 'v2' with 80+

Thank you.

Yeah, i actually plan to get MSI too but I visited a few local shop but they don't stock this mobo. I will try again to look for this mobo. I am from Penang, i got the price from the local computer shop. I saw LinLoong is selling this GPU at RM725, not too much difference, perhaps I can negotiate more with the shop's tauke.

Hmm since u getting Penang , perhaps can check with swisspac , I heard some forumers from Penang recommend that . Actually the Asus one is good to go if cant get msi

i have missed Swisspac. Ok, I will try asking them later. thank you for your helps.

Guys I am considering buying a new com..Budget RM1500+-..The guy at the shop suggested the following:

RM 1104 (w/o HDD)
- I5 3470
- 4gb ddr3
- Standard casing
- Mobo ASUS P8H77
- IF ADD ON: ASUS GT 640 +RM409

Is this a good rig for doing work/ browsing many tabs(min 20 or more) at once plus occasional gaming like Skyrim/diablo3 and such?

Any recommendations on which parts should be improved (or downgraded)?

Considering getting I7 3770 which increases the cost another RM400.

as all the sifus stated before. i5 is good enough for gaming purposes. no need to get i7.

Sorry I haven't gone through the thread yet.

I realise there are many types of i5 processors. Which will suite me more?

What about the other components like graphic cards and such? The shop guy ask me to use the onboard GC instead.

For gaming, any I5 CPU will do. For the GPU, depends solely on your budget, what games are you playing and on what resolution?
