The above processor is meant for overclockers? I'm not a fan in overclocking, more towards a stable, fast processor will do.
Zotac GTX770 AMP! Edition 2GB RM1499 is this GPU the best in terms of value for money? If I were to get a better one, how much would I be looking for in terms of topping up?
*
Yes.That's the cheapest pre-OCed GTX770 GPU in the market..comes with 3 free games & 2+3 years warranty.. brows.gif
Isn't that worthy?furthermore,it has almost the same performance of GTX780 reference.. brows.gif

regarding the CPU,you can consider :

- Intel Core i5 4570 3.2GHz RM588
- Asrock H87 Performance RM375

Thanks and yes 770 series and 780 series does have a lot of difference in terms of the cost sweat.gif
If it is the above processor Intel Core i5 4570 3.2GHz, will using the air cooling system is a bit too much or it is recommended for gaming purposes?

For a non OC-able setup,stock cooler already enuf..But if you're insist on buying one,just go for a cheap one will do..maybe CM Hyper TX3 Evo or Hyper 212 Evo.. wink.gif

EDIT: Is there any difference in performance between the 1150 socket and the 1155 socket?

Hello sifus, below will be the rig I'm going to consider getting. However not sure about the GPU, RAM and the rest where I left it blank below.

Given a 5K budget, your recommendation is greatly appreciated. Will those stuff below fall within my budget? I'm not into over-clocking.

CPU: Intel Core I7 4770
Mobo: MSI Z87 GD45 Gaming
LCD: Dell 23" U2312HM

GPU: Zotac GTX770 2GB AMP Edition or 4GB?
RAM: Gskill RipjawsX RED 2x4GBD DDR3 1866mhz or Kingston Value RAM would do?
HDD:
SSD: Plextor M5S 128GB or 120GB Crucial M500 SSD?
PSU: CM Silent Pro m2 620W PSU or RW Hive 650M Bronze "Modular"?
CPU Cooler: Does an aftermarket cooler is necessary? Or stock one will do just fine?
Case:
ODD:

Thank you.

Hi sifus, my friend will be doing his master's in architecture and is planning to get a new rig. He's gotten some quotes from lowyat, and this is the best suggested rig by the sales assistant:

Intel i5-4570
Gigabyte H87-D3H
Kingston 4GB 1333 x2
Xigmatek Tauro 600W
Sapphire 7850 2GB
Seagate 750GB
LG DVD-RW 24x
Cooler Master Elite 311
AOC E2351FH 23in monitor

Total RM2790

Just wondering if the rig is good enough for his needs, and if the hardware is as good as the staff says they are - we're both noobs when it comes to hardware and PSUs.

He can push his max budget to around 2.9-3k. He'll be reusing his peripherals to save up some cash, so the max budget can be used entirely for the rig.

Thanks in advance!

architecture you mean? :

Intel Core i7 4770 3.4GHz RM895

Cooler Master N200 case RM139

Plextor M5S 128GB SSD RM319
Liteon 24x DVDRW RM65
Dell U2312HM monitor RM539(GBros@GarageSales)

Total - RM2919.00

Thanks mav..however there's few questions pop up on my mind thou

1) Will 550w psu enough for this setup?

2) Will this setup sufficient enough to handle GTA IV and the upcoming GTA V?

3) Does it need another extra cooler? Because it's a gaming rig and i scare it will overheat too fast.

Thanks in advance for any constructive feedbacks ye=) Looking forward for it
*
1) Yup.Should be enough to power up those setup.

2) Yup.GTA ain't that demanding game.

3) Yup.You can add some fans inside the case..

Many ppl tend to recommend Asrock B85 chipset over Asus,MSI,Gigabyte.

Pricing seems similar among all 4. Is there any advantage in Asrock?
*
Asrock is the bestest bang for buck.Asus is pricey(their B85M-E priced at RM359 iinm)..MSI B85M-E33 doesn't have internal USB3.0 port.Gigabyte also pricier than MSI or Asrock.

B85M-G is listed at RM289. Not sure bout B85M-E.
I think those using B85 chipset rarely would slot 2 GPU right..

None afaik..Anyway,cheap mobo like Asrock's B85M Pro4 which costs RM279 already nice for any build.So,there's no point on spending more unless you're an Asus diehard fans.. smile.gif
