both specs are unbalanced, entry lvl GPU, no details of PSU hence it's overpriced IMHO...

whats your budget and usage???
*
Oh. Uhm, below 3k preferably.

Usage:- the usual:- gaming, dramas, normal ms office app for work.

i noob at computer hardware, trying my best to search for every term and its usages. lol.

the first one (they assembled and sell), the second one is from ASUS's shop.

Yes you should copy the spec and bring to shop for quote, they will replace equivalent hardware to you if they don't have stock but it's best to check back here to be safe... have your mobile device with u and login at Starbucks/McD/KFC after you have the quotes to get your answer faster wink.gif
+1, totally right

oh ok, thanks bros! because I have so much questions, duno who to ask, lol, definitely have to refer back here. because the thing that I ask was regarding the ms word app and such progs, they say give me free this and that, some free upgrades.

But I guess I will follow you sifus advices!

erm.. do note that the price quoted here are excluding MS Office and the OS.. if you wanna include that hen it's another matter already

Uhm, if I want to include that, how much would it cost? and any other rig set to complement the price?

The whole true copy Ms Office apps is around RM200 right?
