Hi to all sifus here, I'm looking to build a gaming rig with 5K budget inclusive of full HD monitor (keyboard, mouse, speaker not needed).
Will Intel i5 proc more than enough instead of i7? Any recommendation / advice? Thank you very much. This post has been edited by jimmy.soo: Jun 28 2013, 03:51 PM |

QUOTE(Cable707 @ Jun 28 2013, 04:17 PM) Yup.i5 is more than enough for gaming. The above processor is meant for overclockers? I'm not a fan in overclocking, more towards a stable, fast processor will do.Intel Core i5 4670K 3.4GHz RM699 MSI Z87A-G45 Gaming Edition RM539 G.Skill RipjawsX 1600MHz 4GB x2 RM239 Zotac GTX770 AMP! Edition 2GB RM1499 Rosewill Hive 650W 80+ PSU RM299 Fractal Design Arc Midi case RM335 Seagate SV35 1TB HDD RM218 Plextor M5S 128GB SSD RM309 Dell U2312HM IPS Monitor RM539 Liteon 24x DVDRW RM60 Thermaltake Water2.0 Performer RM249 Total - RM4985.00 (GBros & Cyntrixtech)  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? |

QUOTE(Cable707 @ Jun 28 2013, 05:15 PM) Yes.That's the cheapest pre-OCed GTX770 GPU in the market..comes with 3 free games & 2+3 years warranty.. Thanks and yes 770 series and 780 series does have a lot of difference in terms of the cost  Isn't that worthy?furthermore,it has almost the same performance of GTX780 reference.. regarding the CPU,you can consider : - Intel Core i5 4570 3.2GHz RM588 - Asrock H87 Performance RM375  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? |

QUOTE(zhen^wei @ Jun 28 2013, 10:34 PM) look familiar, is it from our website ? Yes its taken from your website, thanks for the advice for me overall is ok, u can add more bucks to get 4770k then OC to 4.5ghz, casing can get bigger, then get H100i or other AIO liquid cooler. I5 enough for gaming btw, ya. old stock maybe. maybe can get Hyper 212 plus which cheaper more   |

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. |

QUOTE(Razortooth @ Jul 6 2013, 09:09 PM) Well thank you for the update, well there are some changes to the item as well and overall the price difference is only RM1 although it was RM1 but thank you again Thank you for the answer Will do. But maybe won't buy it these day. So i'm worried that the price will change, can I come back again and post the rig I wan to get the latest price, or maybe something new came out that is better. |

QUOTE(coklatua @ Jul 19 2013, 05:36 PM) Thanks for the recomendation. That is factory over-clocked out of the box, higher clock with better performance of course. You can always check out the review http://hexus.net/tech/reviews/graphics/565...70-amp-edition/.but have some quetion here, the zotac amp edition is just a 770 that is slightly overclocked right? So, can we overclocked the normal palit 770? Is the perfomance will differ? |

QUOTE(Aivihc @ Oct 23 2013, 04:25 PM) nope.. more to home/media center (online streaming). any other option for the GC? Coz I don't need such powerful card Integrated graphic/on-board should do just fine if that's the case, can use a cheaper PSU and maybe have a SSD? and more storage for HDD? |
