SSD is a lot faster, people use it as primary storage for OS, favorite program/games/apps etc. Everything load faster than HDD.

Bro, I want to run Skyrim on very high settings but not in 21' screen. only 20 inches...i want use FX 6200 but wanna know whether 7870 very good at it.

21" is the physical size, you need to check the resolution of the monitor

but if its the HD7870, it should be able to run Skyrim at High settings

i would like to build a 2k rig, so far i have come down to this, but would like to save more money by cutting cost, for the rig below, can i save more on the cpu and graphic card? main use is surf net listen to songs and 3x weekly online gaming

rm344 i3 3220
rm229 msi b75ma-p45
rm299 sapphire hd6790 (startec)
rm129 kingston 8gb ram
rm195 intel 330 60gb ssd
rm199 wd blue 1tb
rm140 win 7 64bit - to buy online
rm400 lg ips224t
rm79 logitech g100 combo
rm83 edifier m1360

why would you need the SSD though?

imo, some online games can be quite graphical+CPU intensive

If you can live with low graphic detail, yes. If you use many program, 60GB SSD is not enough. Better save some more and pick 120GB SSD. Else just stick to this build.

hye guys. can you guys recommend a rig with RM 2000 budget.
mostly would be for surfing, work and occasional gaming.
(Games played such as MW3, Skyrim, Dota2 etc.)

The budget don't need to include chasis, monitor, speakers, mouse and keyboard.

How about this:
Intel i5 3470 RM564
MSI H77MA-G43 RM289
Kingston 8gb ram RM142
WD Blue 1TB RM199
Sapphire 7850 RM579
FSP Hexa 500W RM150
LG DVDRW 24X RM59
Total RM1982

looks nice. what if i wanted to go for an NVidia card?

GTX650Ti < HD7850 < GTX660

ok. i had bad experiences with ati before. although it suits my budget more.

CoolerMaster 500w. Is that enough. Btw, what is the price for Corsair 500w and above? And thinking to get a 1TB HDD and 120gb SSD. The cost surely up a lil bit eh

Corsair CX500 RM199
Samsung 840 128GB RM330(ronaldjoe)
WD Caviar Blue 1TB HDD RM259

500w is enough or not to support that specs? Is that the cheapest price i can find? Thanks!

Most 500W 80+ bronze PSU will be able to support the specs.
If it is CM 500W GX series will recommend u to replace with a better one since it has some bad issues ago.
Example: Enermax NAXN82+ 550W RM215 or Seasonic S-series 620W RM299
The other price you can find is similar as suggested by Cable707, perhaps about ±(5~10%).
For WD Blue 1TB price should be around RM200, but price differ from time to time maybe my price list is outdated. So correct me if I'm wrong.

Never looked at the psu model. If I cant use that psu, i need to find decent psu. And for the hdd, what is the main difference between blue, black and green? Quality? Price?

Performance
Black > Blue > Green

Energy Saving
Green > Blue > Black

Price
Blue and Green are just similar at 500gb & 1TB, Black will be expensive. However as the size goes up, Green is cheaper.
