Thanks for the quick response. A few question as I'm a noob.

1) I don't have access to a SB CPU to update the BIOS. Will the guys at Viewnet/All IT/ etc be able to do it for me if I get them to put together the rig? If not, what are the alternative mobos?

2) Which version of the 650 ti is best? Is GAINWARD GeForce
GTX 650 Ti 2GB worth the extra money?
"Gold sample" is cheap here -http://www.ipmart.com.my/main/product/Gainward,GeForce,GTX,650,Ti,Golden,Sample,,1024MB,Graphic,Card,Gainward,Warranty,,363025.php?prod=363025

3) What are the advantages of the K280 casing? I'm not a fan of the design but if it is the best in its class in terms of ventilation, etc I can deal with it. What are the alternatives?

4) Is the SSD crucial (no pun intended)? Will it offer a big boost in speed? If it's not crucial I could put the money into a bigger monitor or some speakers. What would you recommend?

1) Ask them to update, else MSI Z77MA-G45 RM309

2) Do you find 2GB variant? http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/802109

3) Its advantage just good cable management & normal ventilation. You can pick from NXZT Source Elite 210, Thermaltake Comander MS-I snow, Xigmatek Asgard Pro window/ Asgard 381, Aerocool Strike X advance/VS-3 advance/X-predator X-1, Silverstone RL-02/RL-03.

4) SSD is optional, you can put it into monitor, suggest Dell U2412M.

Thank you so much for the help.

One final question, is the brand of GC important. I noticed lingloong has the LEADTEK WinFast GTX 650 Ti 2GB GDDR5 at RM555. How does LEADTEK compare to Gainward? Is the LEADTEK worth the extra rm100?

Thanks again for your help. I owe you roti canai smile.gif

Get the ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 for RM299 from Viewnet. x8 x8 CFX/SLI, overclocking support, ATX form factor. Though it's based on the slightly older Z68 chipset. Still supports IB CPUs though. (may require a BIOS update) or MSI MSI Z77MA-G45.

Do you need soundcard? SSD? That PSU are not recomended. A True Power 500W PSU can handle your hardware. FSP Hexa 500W RM150. CM K280 is better than CM Elite 371.
