QUOTE(ezmeer94 @ May 16 2013, 03:48 PM) Decent setup but do consider the sapphire 7870xt card for better price/performance ratio kinda think of it, might as well throw in some more for a SAPPHIRE HD7970 3G GDDR5 Dual-X SAPPHIRE VAPOR-X HD 7950 3GB GDDR5 OC which is selling at RM1019  or should i go for 660ti |

QUOTE(hmwgbworld @ May 16 2013, 06:47 PM) Stick back to the question, main purpose of the rig. gaming and 3d rendering, need more cores for that hence the xeon.If pure gaming, an i5 is sufficient although no harm getting i7 or xeon. But the hyperthreading feature not helping much to improve gaming performance. not going to OC so no point for 3770k, and compare xeon E3 to 3770 xeon it's cheaper  |

QUOTE(hmwgbworld @ May 16 2013, 07:03 PM) Then u got a good point there. if 670 vs 7870? yeah sapphire price looks good.Regarding mobo, if not going to do multi gpu setup and overclocking, it is a bit wasted since it offers such feature. Unless u only aim for the sake of looking good lol. Instead of picking asus 7870 that price at RM900+, Sapphire 7870 XT offers around RM800 only and outperform asus 7870. damn i miss those years back where mid to high range of GC doesn't cost 1k |
