medium to high gaming..already have a monitor...not sure if i want to get back to little oc'ing or not lol

Can please state the budget?

that's why still thinking

maybe can give me few options..perhaps for 2-3k..3-4k?

He said:"still thinking how much should i fork out to build a rig.."

CPU:Intel Core i5 4440 3.1GHz RM579
Mobo:Asrock H87 Pro4 RM319
GPU:Gainward GTX760 PHantom 2GB GDDR5 RM849
RAm:Corsair 8GB DDR3 1600MHz RM239
HDD:WD Caviar Blue 1TB RM189
PSU:Seasonic S12II 80+ Bronze 620W RM299
Casing:Corsair Carbide 200r RM229
ODD:Liteon 24x DVDRW RM59
SSD:Intel 530 Series 120GB RM349
Total:RM3111
GPU is from Lingloong @GS,the rest are from Viewnet.
If you want it 4K,get Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X 4GB GDDR5 RM1699 (from Viewnet).If want 3.5K,get Sapphire R9 280X Toxic 3GB GDDR5 RM1299 (from C-Zone).If want 2.5K,drop the SSD and get Intel Core i3 4130 3.4GHz RM369 (from Viewnet).

Imo ditch SSD and get a cheaper case like Bitfenix Shadow [ DAMN BEAUTY ] and get 780 Amp! He is going for High "Gaming"
Edit - DON'T DITCH the SSD. I just noticed the price down there. Get Bitfenix Shadow and throw in the 780 Amp for Smoothness olalala.

Zotac GTX780 AMP! Can get you R9 290X Tri-X for 250 more.. or he can opt for Sapphire R9 290 Tri-X 4GB GDDR5 RM1699..better in Price/Performance ratio than the Zotac GTX780 AMP!..

Bitfenix Shadow same price as Corsair Carbide 200r..
No monitor in 3K build,an i5,GTX760 and SSD are well balanced in 3K imo..

Only 8% Better But depend also. I don't know why, I always loved Nvidia so that's why just keep sticking to nvidia. Damn I don't know much bout AMD

Recommending people cannot always recommend the one you like the most like NVidia. Find the one that fits the budget,suit his needs etc.

Yea...need to stop recommend people all nvidia Seems like I got some homework to do on AMD

haha opposite from me , been with AMD GPUs all the way
BTW @hiezad - wait for another week, BitFenix launching new airflow-optimised chassis

You mean

this one >

Comrade Bitfenix, we have come to annihilate the dark ones.

Biiitiful!!

tsk tsk tsk, nope

here's a teaser

thank you for yours suggestion.

Demmit, Bitfenix y u make so sexy case ;-;

Whatever it is better be an ATX case

lol these are budget-oriented chassis bro expect them to the priced close to the Merc or the Outlaw

otw to our shores and even the windowed side panel version is coming

long story short.. yes it's an ATX chassis

Wait the price the same as Merc or Outlaw? And a windowed version too?! I see what I'm getting at. Dunnid Bitfenix Shadow no more

Might start recommending those new Bitfenix casings instead of CM K380/K280 in the RM120-180 price range if budget allows..
