Ah i see now...coz that hyper 212x cooler was quoted package under RM4k buy them . Thanks i'll think about it..

CM Hyper 212X CPU Cooler RM135 Not necessary
Corsair Carbide 400R Casing RM299 If you're okay with the looks
Liteon 24x Sata DVDRW RM65 Last 2 weeks I bought a ASUS DVD optical drive from Viewnet for RM55 only

The rest of the hardware is okay.

last time I used my DVD drive i dont even remmber when, so if you did't plan to use em, can skip it also

Considering he doesn't know much about PCs, optical drive might comes in handy when he install the drivers and stuff.

true

You don't simply spend more money for 750W and above, its just a suggestion in case if u really tend to do that setup like a few weeks or 1~2 months later on.
If you have no idea on how to do it, just use single gpu solution for less problem and stick to your current spec will be fine.

looks like a cash is not a factor to him maybe

oic.. i just worry abuot the quality
because i not so familiar on this brand yet

Hi, currently this is my rig:

Mobo: Gigabyte GA-880GMA-UD2H with onboard graphics HD4250
CPU: Phenom II X2 555 BE (unable to unlock to 4 cores)
Cooler: Hyper 212 evo
PSU: Seasonic G 550w
RAM: 4 gig Corsair DDR3 1333 x 1
HDD: 500gig
DVD: LG LiteOn
GPU: Leadtek geforce GTX650 (not installed yet)

I want to upgrade the mobo to a low-budget gaming rig but I want to keep the CPU and the rest of the equipments as they are. At the same time, the new mobo is to be able to be linked as a HTPC to my LCD tv and hi-fi.

Would you guys please recommend a suitable mobo for me? My budget is very low +/- RM250 yeah I know not much I can afford right now. My choice mobo brands are: Asus, Gigabyte & MSI; Asus & Gigabyte preferably.

many thanks in advance.

bob

Wa so fast V3 already

Your Mobo broken??
If not why not just use that

Please suggest to me a cheapest rig that can play Far Cry 3 on ultra.

I am not sure if my mobo broken , the CPU was unlocked to x4 when I set it up early last year but I noticed just a couple days back that the "unlocking" was undone and now it is back to x2! Is this possible?

And also I noticed that the temp is rather on the high side even at idle. Its always above 70C (from sisoft sandra & CPUID HWMonitor, really abnormal i think. I go into setup and noticed the same temperature. So I went to check online, some says its the NB chip, its ok and it shud be high to run properly they say. I don't think so coz when I try to unlock it again, the system didn't even get pass the sign on page, and getting worse if you attemp continuously meaning, it doesn't even get pass the POST! Weird I think. I suspect the mobo somehow couldn't control the temp as it getting warmer, I check every fan they all running fine.

So the best guess is: change the mobo, since the rest of the components seem ok. I don't think the CPU kaput already.

Any ideas? And any recommendation for a mobo? I am looking at Gigabyte ga-970a-d3. Is this ok?

thanks

FC3 ultra on what monitor? 30" Apple screen?

best to state your maximum budget cause to some ppl RM10K is cheap also please state if you have any preference (brands, colours, style etc) and whether if you need peripherals and monitors as well as the OS

erm... a 970 do not have any on-board displays so better to go back with 880 chipset since you wanna connect directly to your TV

not too sure about the software part though sry

i got samsung 21" monitor. already got 2TB HDD, so only need SSD. mouse keyboard all got. So it's just the CPU.

Still no budget? NVM will let you off the hook for once, and for the record.. its a PC or RIG... not CPU

Try

Intel Core i5 3470 RM559
MSI B75MA-P45 RM229
Kingston Value RAM 4GB RM94
Plextor M5S 128GB SSD RM299
Sapphire HD7970 trixx edi RM1349
Seasonic SII 620W RM299
BitFenix Shinobi Window RM219

Total RM2679

should be able to play on ultra
