Looks good to me... if you're looking to save some $$$ can consider getting value RAM and switch to WD Blue for HDD, otherwise just go ahead with your system build

Soft budget of 6-7k

[Purpose]

Gaming, maybe streaming

[Hardware that will be reuse from old rig]

None

[Monitor resolution]

1080p

[Game or software that use frequently]

Needs to be able to run AAA games smoothly for the next 3-4 years, ideally on ultra for at least the first 2.

Build in my head atm:

CPU: Intel i5 - 4670k
MOBO: MSI Z87 - g41
GFX: ZOTAC GTX 770 4GB VRAM

PSU: Rosewill Capstone 450W Gold (Already have this)
Case: Corsair Obsidian 650D

Any comments? Or RAM recommendations?

Note: Only overclocking at a much later date so probably not getting an aftermarket heatsink til then.

Thx for the comment, but I already have my SSD and PSU so those won't be changed. Will be getting cooler only when I overclock, haven't used a DVD drive in 5 years? I believe.

Reason I'm not SLI-ing is partially because it's overkill and partially because any money I have remaining would go towards other stuff like monitor and maybe even a new chair.

Hi all, my desktop is basically dead after using it for about 6-7 years. So I would like to rebuild a new one. I am planning to get the i7-4770 but the rest I'll need help to recommend, prefer if I can have the small casing, micro-ATX or mini-ITX if possible. My requirement is to have a smooth gaming for the games mentioned above at high setting level. My guess is the Intel chip built in HD4600 will not be able to render the game smoothly... right?

Thanks in advance !

1) Use FSP Hexa 500W ok?

2) My room is not air condition. Thus do I need decent cooling system? or just install more fan inside the chassis is enough?

Hi guys, I need some help here. As my rig is more than 5 years old and my mobo recently got struck by lightning, I guess it's time for me to "move on" and get a new one. tongue.gif My current rig is running in:

i5 750 2.67ghz (32bit)
ATI HD4870
16gb ram

Bold means I am hoping it can stay if is possible, italic means I know it's gonna get going.

[Hardware that will be reuse from old rig] Keyboard mouse, HDD, monitor

[Monitor resolution] 1900x1200

[Game or software that use frequently] HoN, COD, Diablo 3, photo and video editing

[Personal Preference Brand] Nvidia please

My mobo condition is like few USB port is failing me, my unifi port is dead and one of my ram slot is dead as well. As for my GC, it is really old and I wanted to have a change to keep up the current game settings. tongue.gif So should I be fixing it or get a new mobo and a GC?

Thank you in advance.. notworthy.gif

It's hard to find a new 1156 socket motherboard.It anyone has,it must be an old stock.So,i suggest you might wanna look at second hand motherboard @ garage sales.

Since you mentioned that my proc is too old, then maybe GC, MOBO and Processor have to go. :/

It's 5 year old rig already so I am intend to change a new one.

OFF TOPIC: Do anyone happen to know any place that offers cheap service for repairing the mobo? In case is too expensive to get a new rig maybe I'll just fix all the faulty parts and be done with it instead of burning a huge hole in my wallet. :/

What is your PSU?

Anyway,try to survey for 2nd hand motherboard inside Garage Sales(if you dun mind)..You can get 'em at cheap price instead of repairing your mobo.

As for the GPU,i would suggest Zotac GTX760 2GB at RM799.But you need at least a good 500-600W of PSU to run it..(unless your PSU is good enough,no need to replace)

As for the gpu, Zotac brand is better than NVidia / AMD?
Not much of a comp geek thus don't know much about it.

i7 is not needed unless there's HT related apps involved.

Zotac is the brand who carries Nvidia GPU..and that is Zotac Geforce GTX760 2GB
