Recommending a customize pc for my friend. Just want to ask the opinion for the build. Just to remind, we're living in UK now so not really much choice of brand to be considered here:

Cpu : Intel Xeon E3-1230 v2
mobo :ASRock B75 PRO3
ram : Kingston 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory
HDD : Segate Barracuda 1TB
GPU : Asus GTX760-DCMOC-2GD5
PSU : Seasonic S12II 620W
Case : NZXT Elite Black
DVD : Lite On DVD Writer
Monitor : ViewSonic VX2370Smh-LED 23.0"

Budget: 800 Pound (We have bloody 20% VAT tax, so that's mean everything here is 20% more expensive)

Purpose : Architectural works. No gaming
*
That's already a good build.You can tone down the GPU to GTX650Ti and go for 16GB ram since there's no gaming involved.. smile.gif

I'm planning to spend 9k for a complete new system including speaker, monitor. Purpose is for gaming, movie, and music listening. Anyone could recommend me some good setup? I'll allocate 1k-1.5k on monitor (No 3D monitor pls) , 1k~1.5k on speaker and 500-800 on sound card. I'm going Intel and Nvidia, not going to consider R9 290. Should I get I5 or I7? I might be going SLI later on, would a 700W PSU be enough to support?
Intel Core I5/I7 4670/k4770k
Motherboard, prefer something with wifi like P8Z77 v pro (Recommend me)
G.Skill 8G x2
Graphic card Any brand 770/780
PSU 700W
HDD - 3TB X2
SSD - Plextor or Crucial? 128G
Casing with 4USB front, Better if there's 2 USB3

Thank you very much for this, but may I ask why Dell U2913WM? Isn't that super wide? Looks a bit weird to me, where can I get 4770k for RM749? I check all of the reseller selling at about 1k.

Sorry..that's typo error..it's i5 4670K.. sweat.gif

As for the monitor,u can also consider to buy Qnix monitor,which comes in 1440p..and it's cheap also smile.gif

3.No need for Perfomance RAM,Value RAM is enough.

Hmmmm, if you wanna go 4-6K, I'll go for the middle ground.

CPU                      AMD FX-8350                 699
PSU                     Seasonic X650               599
Casing                Corsair Obsidian 350D       345

RAM                    GSKILL RipjawsX  F3-14900CL10D-16GBXL  559
Motherboard      Asus Sabertooth 990FX       699
Boot SSD            Samsung EVO 840 250GB       589

If you're willing to spend more you can get the AMD FX-9370, plus a Cooler Master Nepton 140XL for your system for an additional RM600-700 in total.. But it'll still be around 6K.

Why not consider Intel setup?

Intel Core i5 4670K 3.4GHz
Asrock Z87 Killer mainboard
Kingston KVR1600MHz 2x4GB
Zotac GTX780 Ti 3GB DDR5
Cooler Master V650 Gold PSU
Samsung 840 Evo 128GB SSD
Cooler Master 690 III case
NZXT Kraken X40 CPU Cooler
Liteon 24x DVDRW

Do check Idealtech's latest pricing.Roughly costs RM6K.
