Hi there. First time coming here.

Going to get a new pc soon. So I've been looking around and thinking about what sort of a system to get.

I was looking at something like;
- X6 FX 6300 (RM 499)
- Asrock 970DE/U3S3 (RM 209)
- DD3 4GB PC 1333 - 2 units (RM 138)
- Sapphire 6870 (RM 419)
- 1TB Western Digital (RM 199)
- DVD-RW 24x Samsung (RM 59)
- Silverstone ATX Redline RL01 (RM 179)
- 500W Silverstone Strider (RM 219)

- Samsung 20" LED Monitor (RM 319)

Total: RM 2240.

So, I would appreciate some advice on this system. Is it a good system?

The objective of getting the new system is so that my family can use the PC for their own thing. My sibling's request is that the system is able to play The Sims 3 and personally for me, I would like to play Sim City 5 when it gets released.

if possible do not buy silverstone strider 500w. this model 80plus basic, failure rate is super high.

Hi guys, wanna build a 1k rig without mouse, keyboard and monitor.
For browsing and spreadsheet purposes only, thus can leave out graphic card as well.

Cheers!

Really? Any recommendation for PSU? sweat.gif

I think the most aggressive game I'll play is Sim City 5. The other games are like FIFA and Football Manager. Nothing significant really. Plus, I'm hardly going to be around. So its only for my sibling, and wants to play The Sims 3 ( doh.gif Of all the games...).

Both psu are sufficient for pc with single graphic card usage.
You can get 80+ gold if u want a good one, like seasonic G series 550W cost around RM359.

Nope, he means higher end graphic cards need more power. Such as 7950, 7970 or gtx670, 680.

save some $$$ by lowering some parts

1) CPU - go for the i5 3470 will be sufficient
2) RAM - go for Value RAM 4GB x2 - no noticeable difference in performance
3) Motherboard - can get the B75 chipset, recommend the MSI B75MA-G43
4) PSU - Don't go for CM brand to be safe, go for FSP, Seasoonic, Corsair, Silverstone and at least 500W
5) HDD - Go for the WD Blue 1TB instead of green
