ok got some idea, i think better got for z87 or h87, more features la.. better use matx form factor. got some rough idea already, thanks guys biggrin.gif

Yup nod.gif , fancy mobo just good looking and extra features that most ppl wont use much from it. The cost saving from such mobo can spend on other components.

is there any alternatives to the mobo and gc? also all can fit nicely in the casing? i experienced some cases where the psu cable not long enough in casing that locate psu at the bottom
*
Yup, there's other mobo band like MSI that might be about the same price. WHile Asus will be needed to top up RM30 or more.
Other brand of gc will be slightly expensive to get.
Yes all can fit nicely inside the case.
Enermax NAXN82+ PSU cables should be long enough, CM K280 isnt a big case.

any idea which shop in lyp i can find the asrock mobo and enermax psu? and it doesnt look like i can find the gc in any of their pricelist. any other model with similar performance and price range(cheaper is ok tho) for the gc?
*
i think jayacom has the asrock mobo if im not mistaken. else can try look from garage sellers like lingloong, idealtech, gbros.
enermax psu garage sale lingloong has it.
leadtek gtx760 can be pre-order from idealtech, there's alternative brand zotac/palit but cost RM899.

Here's the system that I'll be building for my friend. Usage will be internet browsing, casual gaming and movie/drama watching. Feel free to add your comments or suggestions:

Intel® Core™ i5-4570S Processor - RM403 (discounted price)
Asus B85M-G M-ATX RM299
Kingston Hyper-X KHX1600C9D3K2 DDR3 CL9 8GB - RM228
WD Caviar Green - RM286
LG GH24NS95 24x DVD Writer SATA - RM60
Sapphire HD7770 DDR5 1024/128bit - RM375
Cooler Master Extreme 2 Power 525W - RM180
Cooler Master Elite 344 Mini Tower - RM119

Total MYR 1,950

Overall ok, except PSU.
CM Extreme series has high failure rate and bad efficiency, u can option for a better PSU and grab the valued and reliable like FSP Hexa 500W RM149 only.
Would suggest get other brands for 2TB HDD, as WD Green will be slightly slower if u plan to use it as a boot drive.
eg. Seagate one has 7200rpm.

Thanks. I've totally missed the hard disk speed.

For PSU, is there any other suggestion? I don't see FSP in any of my reference price list.. Is Aerocool Strike X good?
*
Not so good from what i read from a review: http://www.kitguru.net/components/power-su...w-psu-review/6/
But this is for 800w model, not sure the others ok or not.

Other brand may consider Xigmatek Tauro 500W RM199. You can get FSP Hexa 500W from Garage / Lelong sellers easily. Cheapest i seen so far is CastleIT from lelong, RM137 only. I get mine from him with RM16+ postage to Sarawak reach in 2 days only.

Where's your location btw?

may i know is there any need to include ssd for my new rig? sorry for asking coz i tot ssd only installs windows os and make it faster only right? is there any other use of ssd?
*
SSD is optional, if u need the fast boot and apps loading time ssd is a nice choice of upgrade.
Normally ppl used too install os and frequently used apps/software on it.

Its basically a drive, usage more or less the same as HDD. Just the price/gb is higher than regular HDD only.

The best bet to spend your budget to the max is keep using your current stock cooler and only buy HDD & GPU.

Not much.

If I want to swap with Ivy i3 to topup the card to 7850, how about the perfomance?
Speed of precessing photos in photoshop will be slower.
To keep the i5 by changing to ivy and cut some budget on monitor will allow 7850 to fit,

Hello there, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask this but..
Can anyone suggest me a gaming laptop that could play games at medium settings at the very least.
Budget would be around RM2.5k.
Mainly used for gaming and work/study related.
I would very much like the ones that would last me long enough without having much heat issues.
