So you want gaming first then? Hmmm Imo get a GTX 760 Phantom Gainward for RM 849 @Lingloong. Then when got the money get a i5-4670k with a Z87 mobo. I think some people sell it as a bundle and can get cheap hmm.gif
Edit - Also get a new PSU. Antec VP-550w RM 199 is good enough can get in viewnet nod.gif

now im only play dota 2. ya for gaming.. gtx 760 vs r 270x which 1 is btter?

As per can see here the 760 is 12% Better. Reminder that that's a ref. 760 so a phantom can atleast have 17% more juice to it.

alright.. noted. thx for the feedback!

GPU: Palit GTX 750 Ti StormX Dual OC RM 560 - Viewnet
RAM: Gskill AEGIS 4GB DDR3 1600mhz RM139 IdealTech

Then you'll gave to top up a bit more for the GPU. You'll need at least a 280X to run BF4 Ultra maxed out smoothly @1080p Ultra 4xMSAA.

then i have to stretch out my budget . hmm maybe end of this month i buy the gpu and psu. which gpu of r9 280x u recommend for me? or should i get gainward 770 2gb? should cn play most of the games at ultra right?

1) Yeap 620w is good enough.
2) In a way yes. I guess it'll bottleneck the Proc.
*
but there is no harm in bottleneck right? coz im planning to get the gpu n psu this month, then next mnth i'll get i5 4670k.. after i buy the cpu, then i will play high end game like titanfall/crysis etc..
