thanks for ur suggestion will consider it

and can i know whether this motherboard are good for its price? or got other better than this?

In terms of price among brands, Asus is the highest.
Gigabyte, MSI or Asrock offer cheaper price for same chipset of mobo.

ANTEC 450W VP450 Navotech(RM169) is a better choice for PSU. Ask them for normal Sapphire HD7790 1GB DDR5 can cut you some cost. Also case is cap ayam, better take Cooler Master K280. If you can wait a long time, Navotech should be able to built for you, but be warned, they always crowded with customers. Also you could replaced the RAM with 1600mhz Value RAM. This from

actually why need G-550 and not quote a 620W modular /non modular ?
*
Because it is just slightly expensive if compared to other models at 80+ bronze rated. And modular cables included are flat and black colors that look more clean imo.

To make sure every components run well together. Balancing in building a rig can be the same concept as building a house, say you wont like to see a house built that is imbalance laugh.gif .

Yup, the GPU is pretty good performance in this price tag imo. It outperforms gtx660ti but cheaper.
Here's the link for some of the other games benchmark: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/...GTX_760/16.html

herm,is the mobo future proof?since this is a once in a while purchase,i might consider increasing my budget.is the gaming mobo from msi good?specifically msiz87 gd65  brows.gif
*
There's no future proof in most pc hardware, as the technology improves fast nowadays. New hardware will keep on going and soon or eventually replace the current ones by a matter of time.
This is pretty obvious we can see on smart phones, getting slimmer and specifications getting better.

In fact that gaming mobo doesn't help to improve the gaming performance by much. Unless you are making use of the killer lan port, but most ppl now are using wifi/wireless so i don't see a reason to spend much on mobo. Unless u really utilize the most features from it.

A cheapo network usb adapter will do the trick biggrin.gif .
TP-Link USB ADAPTER WIFI 150N TL-WN727N RM15
or
TP-Link USB ADAPTER WIFI 300N TL-WN821 RM45
Casing maybe get something like CM K280 RM129, at least got the front usb3.0 port.
or maybe CM N200 casing RM159.

From IdealTech is Leadtek brand, https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2832209&hl=
From GBros is Zotac brand, https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopic=2832209&hl=
The Zotac AMP! version is pre-overclocked one and comes with custom cooler, so will be slightly expensive than a reference one.

so my friend suggested this specs.is it ok?

leadtek gtx760 - 799
aerocool v3x advance with additional fans - 150
corsair vs 550w - 179
lg dvd rw - 59
i5 3330 - 529
msi b75ma e33- 219
kingston valueram 4gb pc1333 - 109
western digital blue 1tb - 189
asus ple - n15 wireless card - 79

the question is,is the psu strong enough to support the system?
cause got a few people suggest to change to 600w.he said something about efficiency >.< 80% efficiency and what not.i dun understand sad.gif
*
Screw out that i5 3330, get i5 3470 with better clock & boost speed by adding RM30 only.
For PSU, get something better such as Seasonic S12II 620W. To secure the power is always more than enough.
Efficiency of the PSU is determining how much powers will be drawn from the socket wall.

Example: 80% efficiency, pc consumes 200W.
So the total power will be drawn socket wall = 200/0.80 = 250W.
The 250W will be the one that being measured by metre reading.
As we can see, better efficiency save more power and money.
For Malaysia the electric is cheaper than other countries, so as long as your psu is 80+ bronze will be good enough to conserve power.

Seasonic S12II 620W RM299 or Rosewill Hive 650W RM299
The mobo no need change, coz i5 3470 still the same socket as i5 3330.
