QUOTE(pcnoob2708 @ May 19 2013, 09:33 PM) i tot the price is 1029 7950 still out of budget even top up 300, unless u pick other brand of monitor that might offer cheaper.RM300 perhaps upgrade to Sapphire 7870 XT RM769 for best bang of buck as it offers similar performance as gtx660 ti. Then upgrade ram to 8gb RM169. |

QUOTE(TheLaptopDudeGuy @ May 24 2013, 12:33 PM) Thank you for the setup, i mixed up your recommendation and the one on the front page and ended up with a 2k setup which over at kch cost about 2.4k. You may try to ask a quote from pc image via email to check price if lazy to pay a visit to their shop. But their respond is quite random, take few days sometime. |

QUOTE(djronzai @ May 24 2013, 12:59 PM) thx for ur reply, but i saw some comments from tomshardware, there are ppl suggesting not to OC leadtek GTX 670 due to the poor cooler they have, and they got no backplate which i dun even know what was that. Most of the ppl suggest to take asus and gigabyte if really wan to OC [FYI, my gaming room is quite hot btw, that why my laptop is busted] You can have a look on a GTX670 review to see if it meets your requirement for game setting.http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/NVIDIA/GeForce_GTX_670/ If way too much, just pick a slightly slower gpu GTX660 or 660 ti for budget saving. |

QUOTE(TheLaptopDudeGuy @ May 24 2013, 03:05 PM) Just went at afternoon and purchased You sure they carry other Sapphire models? If not mistaken the 7770 vapor x is left over one by a forumer due to canceled deal. Thats why no normal version available.They didnt have the normal version, so i got the sapphire 7770 vapor x model, but i only realized after i bought it, a extra RM10 could get me the sapphire 7790, so definitely in a facepalm moment now Last question, not sure if this is too off topic, but a CM K280 with just the front fan installed is enough to cool the rig right? Gonna leave everything stock as i want this rig to last me around 3-4 years |

QUOTE(djronzai @ May 24 2013, 08:22 PM) look like you have poison me I suppose u are refering to a wrong one. There's a different between 7970 and 7970 GhzSAPPHIRE HD7970 3GB D5 384BIT OC [1299] SAPPHIRE HD7970 3GB D5 384BIT VAPOR-X [1399] I just dont get it, since we can OC ourselve, but why many GPU they come out a OC version itself?? what the point? and the difference between these two are RM100... sorry i am very new to GPU still ![]() The pre-OC is for someone lazy to do manual OC. Most of the time pre-oc'ed version offers better cooling solution. This post has been edited by hmwgbworld: May 24 2013, 08:32 PM |

QUOTE(TheLaptopDudeGuy @ May 25 2013, 07:03 AM) Unfortunately just got my rig last night, didnt try to cancel it as they had already built the rig, and im not sure even if its possible to change at such the last minute, still want to maintain healthy relationship with pc image Well what done is done, let it be About the fans, they installed a single intake fan at the side. Thinking about installing another outtake fan at the rear, should balance out everything right? Just swap the side fan to the rear side as exhaust. Most of the time I only mount fan(s) at rear or top side as exhaust, let the side/front blank as passive intake airflow to reduce noise.

Should i go for k on cpu for oc ? Please advise. thanks. |
