What's your PC build and how much are you willing to spend on a PSU? hmm.gif

It's alright, but it's based on an entry level design so I won't recommend powering a high end rig with it icon_idea.gif

Ryzen 7 3700 x + gigabyte rtx2060
off topic a bit but I heard that since the rtx 3 series are coming out, I should wait for the price drop to get 2060?
On the budget I think I probably wouldn't mind maybe 400+ for it

It should be fine, but I'll probably will recommend something like the XPG Core Reactor if you can spend a bit more hmm.gif

Your usage? Looks good, although I'd swap the GPU to a MSI Ventus RTX2060 Super (about the same price) over this one icon_idea.gif

Klevv is essentially the consumer brand of SK Hynix (one of the largest DRAM manufacturers in the world), and their DRAM chips are often found in many name brand RAM sticks icon_idea.gif

The board is overpriced though and has poor VRMs - look for the B450 Tomahawk MAX or even a decent B550 like:
1. B550M Pro4
2. B550M Steel Legend
3. B550A-Pro
4. B550 Gaming Plus
5. Tuf B550M-Plus Gaming

The PSU should be good enough for this build icon_idea.gif

Also, if you are only gaming, drop the CPU down to a 3600 and put the remaining funds towards a better GPU icon_idea.gif

Look for DotaTech at Lazada (I think your recommendations come from Dotatech hmm.gif )

Go for a WiFi adapter if you can (preferably a PCIe one, or a M.2 card) icon_idea.gif

The one in the Aorus Pro WiFi isn't that good to say the least icon_idea.gif

You can pick up a MSI 2060 Super for not much more, and it's a faster card overall:

Yeah I see, yesterday I mistook it for 2070 super. My quotation came from etech.Tbh I would probably like to try to build a pc myself but I want the aftersales service of the pc shops.
sadly etech is quite far from where I stayed.Last night I looked around and it looks like Viewnet price is pretty good as well. Maybe if I buy a whole pc from them I can get a disocunt

If you are going for a mini ITX system, I'd probably recommend a SFX PSU (usually they come with an ATX adapter) as it is smaller and the cable lengths are much more suited for SFF builds icon_idea.gif

Something like this should do:

https://www.lazada.com.my/products/fsp-sfx-...554bxQ0938&mp=1

Modular units (especially fully modular ones) are not cheap to begin with sweat.gif

If you are willing to spend a bit more then there's always the XPG Core Reactor 650W/NZXT C650 icon_idea.gif
