The 4700MQ... though if you are gaming, it's the GPU that usually makes the difference...  Most laptop's GPU are underpowered compared to their desktop counterparts...  For example a GTX760M is weaker than a desktop HD6790... sweat.gif  Conversely, my HD7950 would demolish almost every single laptop GPU around... tongue.gif

lol, i know.. just wonder how would lappy cpu fare if compare to desktop one.. erm, which memory is better; hynix vs elpida? and mostly available in market is hynix right?

Hynix is usually preferred by overclockers. tongue.gif  Though Elpida is fine as well, though it won't give you stellar memory overclocks. tongue.gif
Most GPUs offered can have a mix of Elpida and Hynix/Samsung chips.  You can determine it using the latest version of GPU-Z:

Use a stress test tool like Unigine Heaven/Valley. icon_idea.gif
Coil whine is not a malfunction though.  tongue.gif

scared my gpu overheat later haha.. any precaution to take b4 benchmark? cause my r9 290 v easy rise temp... and benchmark usually stress ur gpu performance..

zotac amp gtx770 and sapphire r9 290 non-x reference, which one more best bang for buck? cause more games i think more optimized for nvidia cause got physx, so will gaming aspect affect amd card?

If you want pure performance right out of the box, then it's R9 290 reference. However, do take note on its noise level, which can be intrusive for some people. biggrin.gif Depends actually, I think only currently AC IV, Batman AO, COD: Ghosts comes with PhysX. While it's nice to have PhysX, it isn't entirely necessary. And these games still work fine with AMD cards.

It's good,but it can't challenge i5 CPUs.Im sure the A10 7850K will come out at a price of somewhere around 550,which is able to get a i5 4440 3.1Ghz RM579.. icon_idea.gif

Yup,i mostly do video editing atleast once a day,atm it takes 45 mins to render a 20 mins video in 720p...a pain.. cry.gif
And yeah,Xeon CPU normally helps for editing and rendering..a i7 in disguise,.1Ghz slower,no iGPU and around RM170 cheaper than i7 4770.  brows.gif

lol got gpu, igpu no need dy, wont do much performance in gaming. u use vegas pro? i convert 1gb+ video using handbrake oso take quite long using i5 haswell.

But why are you getting the 4770K and you are using the iGP?
The best iGPU would be AMD's Kaveri APU, though Intel's Iris Pro is pretty powerful (you can't have the CPU with that GPU, unfortunately)

why? cause its use for Mac?

if wanna increase computer speed, which one shud upgrade? ram, cpu or add in ssd? cause i don really know much diff.. to me, both ram and ssd decrease loading time, just that ssd more exp cause got capacity can store things.. and if change cpu, will the performance increase bcome more 'visible' than adding ram? and if i use ssd, will the transfer speed of file from pc to usb and usb to pc increase?

PC to USB transfers are highly dependent on the quality of the flash chip on the USB drive. icon_idea.gif

so pc to usb transfer not affected by ssd? and if the softwares and os i put in ssd, the programs will run a lot faster and smoother if compare i add ram is it?

Yes.  Still dependent on the program though.  If your programs isn't memory intensive then a SSD would benefit quite a bit, and if your RAM isn't sufficient then prioritize on the RAM.

u recon which ssd? does diff brand of ssd differ a lot in performance given same capacity? some of the prices diff quite a lot

Performance-wise, yes as different brands utilizes different flash memory.  However, you need not to worry as SSDs can have minimal difference in real world usage. tongue.gif
