Design simulations?Like PS CS6,Adobe AE,C4D,Maya?
I'd just get a decent build.The 8 Threads in Xeon and i7 CPUs is helpful for Video Editing,Video Rendering,Photo Ddting,Photo Rendering,Animation and stuffs like that.
I'd get a good midrange card for animations though,like GTX760,AMD HD7850-7870 (IF ITS STILL SELLING) or the R9 270X GPU.

No, I'm using engineering simulation software, like ADS.. But i guess it's just the same like other softwares..

Oh...my bad.

If i bump down a little to oth i5 and the Leadtek 650, would it still be good?

If I bump down to i5 and the 650 Leadtek, is it still good? Try to squeeze in the monitor.....or if the monitor can be slightly smaller?

Get Dell S2240L 21.5' RM489.
It's not that good,its decent though,but cant play most games on high settings i guess.
Spend abit more and get Leadtek GTX760 2GB ddr5 RM849.

So a recap, either the Xeon with 650 or the i5 with the 760?
I guess the dell is the best monitor available right?

[Budget]2.5k-3k

[Purpose] gaming. at least be able to support dota 2, sims city, gta 5

[Hardwares that will be re-use] none

[Monitor resolution] getting new monitor, most likely HD

[Games & softwares that use frequently] League of Legends, l4d, sims 3/city

[Personal preferences] wont mind going slightly over budget for better graphics card

Intel Xeon E1230 v3 with Leadtek GTX650 TI Boost 2GB ddr5 or Intel i5 4440 with Leadtek GTX760 2GB DDR5.

In your opinion, which setup is better?

Idk if this can run GTA v or not,as it havent come out on PC.

Cpu:Intel Core i5 4440 3.1 ghz RM569
MOBO:ASrock B85M Pro4 RM279
GPU:Leadtek GTX760 2GB DDR5 RM849
RAM:Corsair 8GB DDR3 1600mhz RM229
HDD:WD Caviar blue 1TB RM189
Casing:Cooler Master K380 RM149
PSU:FSP Hexa 500W RM149
Monitor:Dell Ultrasharp U2312HM 23' RM629
Total:RM3042

Prices from Viewnet.
Idk any shops near Puchong,so you have to go to Viewnet in Lowyat to get these parts.

Hmm,if u are playing FPS Games like BF4,i'd get the i5 4440 and GTX760.BUT if u wanna save a bit more money to get better CPU,u can consider the xeon and gtx760,IF ads do use cpu alot.
,so refering to your question of the Monitors from Dell,it has a lot of good monitors,there some monitors that are good other than dell's too,like some from Asus and Viewsonic.

At least get the 2GB TI Boost version to be more future proof, just a tad more pricier than normal 650.

WTA budget for this spec:

Casing : CM Storm Scout 2

Processor:i5-4570

Motherbord: ASRock H87 performance

Ram: Corsair DDR3 1600 16gb

Hardisk: WD 1Tbyte blue

Powersuply: FSP RAider 650W

Optical drive: Liteon 24x DVD

Graphic card: Leadtek GTX

The shop give me estimate about rm3k.. can help give any suggestion on change of spec that noted that can low the price to <2.5k.. tq

What GTX? I presume the 760?
Looks nice... Though for 3K you can squeeze for more... R9 280X anyone?
16GB is overkill for games actually

i5 4440-RM579
ASRock B85M Pro4-RM259
Corsair 1x8GB Value 1600-RM209
WD Caviar Blue 1TB-RM189
Seasonic S12II 620W-RM299
LiteOn DVD Writer-RM55
Sapphire R9 280X Dual-X-RM1099

Total: RM2689

R9 280X yo....

No casing.

I think if his budget is tight, better keep with GTX760.

Well, just get a CM K280?

Hi guys,

Need a suggestion to build from scratch a photo editing rig.

Budget - the cheaper,the better.At least no lagging or hang while editing raw photos..maybe below rm2.5k?

No hard gaming involved.Only flash games.

I'm located at KL.

Thanks sifus..
