But I was wondering if this build makes any sense? I'm using it mainly for gaming purposes and would like to avoid upgrading it for 2-3 years. Anything I can do better? Also, can someone tell me about after-sales service? I'm rather concerned about that bit since I'm not that good at computers so having back-up and tech support is a big deal for me. Sorry to bother ya.

QUOTE(AaronFPS @ Oct 29 2013, 01:49 AM) What's your location? The GPU is not available in Malaysia. Malaysia. But I'm considering NewEgg Malaysia for deliveries. I THINK they may have it. I know RMA is more troublesome but I hear the quality is better than, say, from LY? Could you recommend an alternate card also? |

QUOTE(AaronFPS @ Oct 29 2013, 02:13 AM) You can ask them to quote the full price including delivery, if the price is good then go for it. Some sellers from garage sales provide good service. Your budget is 3k? 3k-ish. Yeah. I haven't even considered the monitor yet.  Anything else to add? |

QUOTE(hmwgbworld @ Oct 29 2013, 04:29 PM) What's your location anyway? If the seller is living near to you can just do COD in person to person. In this way u save cost on shipping too. I'm in KL. But I don't have a car. Ah well, thanks for the info |

Sorry to bother. I've got a couple of questions for all the sifus.
What are your thoughts on the gtx 770? I'll probably be playing at 1080p and would prefer to keep the fps at >60 fps for most of my games without sacrificing too much for it.
What is the difference for card manufacturers like Gigabyte, EVGA etc? Any recommendations?
I heard that nVidia is doing a 3 game promotion? If I were to buy from any vendor in Msia, would I still qualify for it?
Also, last one, I'm undecided on a i5-3570k or 4670k. Any thoughts? Also, I don't see myself overclocking in the next year-ish. Should I save the extra cash and go for a 3570 or 4670 instead?

QUOTE(WiLeKiyO @ Nov 3 2013, 03:06 AM) GTX770 is a great card for 1080p. You should able to play most game at highest setting with stable 60FPS. Alternative choice would be the new AMD R9 280X. It's just brand matter, each manufacturer comes different cooling design. Just choose the brand and design you like. Price is vary, brand such as ASUS is usually more expensive. If you wish to overclock, doesn't matter when, take the K. I'll pick 4670K since it is newer. Ok. Thanks a bunch. The evga one looks so fancy... out hunting for a sleek looking one. |

QUOTE(WiLeKiyO @ Nov 3 2013, 03:16 AM) As I know there is no local seller selling EVGA, you have to order from Newegg MY. But they are closed until further notice.  Saw someone in Garage Sale selling it. Well, not sure which one to go for. Any experience in choosing? |
