If people want to check if their CPUs or GPUs are "good enough", or require upgrading to balance with the new parts, then one place I have always found useful are the CPU and GPU bench data at Anandtech:

Another one is techPowerup.. brows.gif
Here's an example of Powercolor R9 290X PCS+ 4GB GDDR5 review.There's even a list of games on how many FPS does this GPU gets on Max Settings 1080p Battlefield 4.All you've to do is click the page button(U need to scroll the page first tongue.gif),then click on which game that u want to see the GPU's FPS etc compared to others.

If u want to compare CPU vs CPU,search up in example:"Intel Core i3 4130 vs AMD FX6300".If u see a link which includes http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/351/AMD_F...i3_i3-4130.html
Then that's it. smile.gif
Here's Intel G3220 vs AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600 http://www.cpu-world.com/Compare/12/AMD_At...Core_G3220.html

[Budget] - around RM2000, but trying to get as cheap as possible
[Purpose] - distributed rendering NODE - CPU rendering

I had in mind the following stuff, just looking for any constructive input. hmm.gif
I am wondering if best just get FX8320 which cost around RM530 and overclock it?
I don't have much experience on CPU matter.

Fractal Design Core1000 mATX chassis - RM170 (I like the minimalistic of it)
AMD FX8350 AM3+ 4.2Ghz OctaCore - RM669
Asrock 960GC-GS mATX AM3+ mobo - RM179 (oh Gawd why no ITX board... cry.gif )
Corsair 550W VS550 PSU - RM209 (in case of expand GPU and stuff)
CoolerMaster Hyper 212X CPU cooler - RM125
Western Digital 1TB HDD - RM189
Kingston KVR 8Gb x2 DDR3 1600 - RM490 (12GB is bare minimum...)
Cheap USB Wi-Fi dongle - RM29

RM2060

Better go for full HD monitor(21.5") since you can afford one.

Wrong choice on the CPU and board. For FX-8xxx builds, it is recommended to get an ATX board, mainly the fact that only ATX boards have proper VRMs for powering the CPU. Note that a weak VRM would throttle the CPU, and in rare cases, causes the VRM to fail. The only way to do so is to go with a Xeon/i7 build, as they have much lower power requirements.

The power requirements of FX CPUs (especially FX-8xxx series CPUs) are very high and generally requires very robust VRMs, and robust VRMs usually require a lot of space on the motherboard, unless motherboard manufacturers do this:

I see hmm.gif didn't know there will be such hardware issue. Definitely need a reliable system as it can be stressing for days.
Yes I also trying to keep it small so was thinking about ITX.

Also, do take some time reading this:
http://www.overclock.net/t/946407/amd-moth...m-info-database

VRM throttling/failures is no joke, though. There are several members who encountered VRM throttling issues. Here's some: tongue.gif

https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3068076/all (System freezes, when the CPU is loaded using Prime95, most likely VRM throttling)
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/3078942/all (MSI 970A-G43, very well-known for problematic VRMs, causes FX-8350 to throttle)

Even our moderator goldfries he wrecked his MSI 790FX-GD70 (due to VRM failure) with a Phenom II x6 1100T... sweat.gif
