thanks for the great help 

How about 2011 socket 8-core and 12-core Xeon processors?

In terms of GPU as well as computer hardware selection, I personally find noise performance important, as I run my PCs 24/7.  It is irritating to me to have to hear fan noise when idle, and especially when gaming, where high fan noise (especially from some GPUs today) can intrude into the gaming experience (if you do not wear headphones).

In that respect, I have mostly kept to buying GPUs from either Asus, Gigabyte, or MSI - specifically the Asus Direct Cu II, Gigabyte WindForce, or MSI TwinFrozr series of graphics cards.  I do understand that they do cost more, but for those people who are looking to buy a new rig, please consider if you are willing to spend more for a quieter PC.

Hi Guys, want to ask you guys opinion about this build. I almost make up my mind and I'm down to this 3 option and my budget is around 2k-ish:

Option 1:
CPU: Intel Xeon E3 1230 V3 Rm799
Mobo: Asrock H87 Performance Rm399
RAM: Kingston Value RAM 1600MHz 8G RM245
Casing: CM N600  RM269
PSU: Seasonic S12II 80+ Bronze 620W RM299
Total: RM2011

Option 2:
CPU: Intel Xeon E3 1230 V3 RM799
Mobo: Asrock Z87 Extreme3 RM429
RAM: Kingston Value RAM 1600MHz 8G RM245
Casing: CM N600 RM269
Seasonic S12II 80+ Bronze 620W RM 299
Total: RM2041

CPU: Intel Xeon E3 1230 V3 RM 799
Mobo: Asus H87-Pro RM439
RAM: Kingston Value RAM 1600MHz 8G RM 245
Casing: CM N600 RM 269
PSU: Seasonic S12II 80+ Bronze 620W RM 299
Total: RM2051

The reason for the build is for some video editing, photo editing and some programming such as Mat-lab and currently I have 2 monitor and will be using dual display cos i will do some multitasking like doing some work on one monitor and surfing the net on the other monitor. I also play some game such as DOTA2, FM, Grid 2, Hawx, starcraft 2, i can live with medium setting. Here are some part that I will re-used back:
HDD: WD 500G Blue
  WD 1TB Green
  WD 3TB Green
GPU: Asus EAH 6870
Monitor: LG 21.5" E2242
            Viewsonic VA1703wb

The reason I choose these 3 motherboard is that:
-all 3 have 6 sata3 connector (can install up to 6 HDD since I'm a heavy downloader  )
-all 3 have DIGI+ VRM - Phase digital power design (asrock Z87 & H87 performance 8) & (Asus H87=Pro 6)
-all 3 have 6 USB 3.0
*although the price difference is just around RM30 to RM40.

For the CPU i think i choose the Xeon since its have 4C and 8T which help in doing some rendering video and programing (sorry correct me if im wrong still in learning process  )

The casing I choose CM N600 is because it can support fan up to 10 fans (which might help full in future since I want a good airflow for the casing in order to keep it cool) http://apac.coolermaster.com/en/product/De...eries/n600.html

plus I might left my computer on 24/7 most of the time.
What do you guys think about this rig since I'm stuck with these 3 option  . Appreciate you guys opinion and suggestion 
sorry for the long explanation..
Thanks in advance guys..  

Hi guys, looking for GPU at below RM300. Using a FXP HExa 400W.

planning to buy normal atx case. PALIT GTX 750 Ti StormX is bigger right?

dlam rm5000

Alot people seems recommend i5-4440 for processor
From what I know it cant be OC right? Is it because of the price or is it because of performance ?  If wish to have a OC processor what kinda processor will you advice ?

agak2 berapa harga nnti masuk malaysia?

That i3 is good for gaming ah? Some sellers told me not recommended lah. They suggest i5-4440 If it's good enough for most games then I'll probably consider downgrading to save budget because money is a little tight but I need to replace my dead laptop a.s.a.p.. Though to be honest right now that build you posted is a lot cheaper than what I've got here:
Mine lari budget ody cuz I still need to get a wireless usb thingy, dvd-reader thingy, and keyboard (already got mouse) 
I'm not really looking for anything fancy tbh. 1366x768 reso is fine with me. I just want to be able to run Excel and some games. I'll probably get the monitor Cable707 suggested though since it looks good

Gaming and workstation thou.
I would like bitfenix prodigy but that case cannot support dual gpu I guess.
I am going LowYat tomorrow so I need to know what to buy. 

Or AOC i2369VM at RM629.AH-IPS..slight cheaper for the same spec..

Go with the cheaper one.. i2369VM has thinner bezel(same like Asus MX239H which great for Eyefinity/multi display ) and MHL technology..since they're both AH-IPS,so i think there's no significant differences..

how about speaker any suggestion which 1 should i get?

Guys, is it ok to get H81 chipset compare to B85?

Torn between Asrock H81M-HDS (RM185) vs Asrock B85M-HDS (RM239). Price gap quite obvious.

I only know that H81 chipset only got 2x USB3. But for Asrock H81M-HDS it got 4x USB3. The rest more less the same.
