GTX 750 is good enough for Dota 2 under 1080p. What other games your friend will play? You can upgrade to a better graphic card if you plan to play FPS games e.g BF4, COD or etc.

Piece of cake for GTX750 Ti. Recommended monitor is full HD.

erm. shud be csgo and other offline games such as pes or fifa14, dats all i think. i3 proc can tahan for 2-3 years?

plus, is the mobo good? whats the diff with rm280 mobo and rm170 mobo?

i3 should be fine for 2 - 3 years, depending on the games you play. An upgrade to your graphic card should do the trick.

Entry level mobo usually have lesser SATA 3 or USB 3.0 ports.

Therefore, should add up a bit more for the gpu i guess. i3 + gtx 760 shud be good combo masta raven?

So, mobo is just about the speed of data transfer. thats all rite?

Please also take note there are also games that demands CPU power like Watchdogs, MMORPGs and RTS.

There is difference between GTX750 and GTX750 Ti as well. RM124 for 8GB built-in SSD on Seagate SSHD is expensive. I would suggest going regular 1TB then buy 128GB SSD later. You can always add it later and reinstall or migrate the OS. Data migration has no data loss.

Thanks a lot tristan. I dont play those kinds of games, but sometimes, my hands get a bit itchy and want to try out those kinds of games. haha

128gb ssd how much eh? if combo with 1 tb hdd then how much?

Thanks a lot for the tips. Hence, should I wait a bit more for the price to go down? Or, just pay increase the budger around 2200-2350 maybe?

Whats ur advice master?

120-128GB SSD can be found for RM239-299 depending on brand and grade of the SSD.

When you buy a PC, you will try to buy the best price/performance and use it for a long time. RM2350 can get you these.

Core i5-4460 - RM569
Asrock B85M-HD3 motherboard - RM239
Kingston 4GB DDR3-1600 x1 - RM129
Leadtek GTX750 Ti 2GB DDR5 - RM549

Changed to better motherboard, CPU and power supply.

This looks good and really solid imo If there is a battle between gpu, between, gtx750 ti boost vs r9 270. which is better to pair with my CPU?

R9 270 is better.

R9 270 is faster.
Also,there's no GPU named "GTX750Ti Boost".

why izit r9 card price dropped so much? i saw last 4 month the price quite expensive.

so i5+r9 270 would be good for around 3 to 4 years max?

haha. sorry mate. influenced by 660 ti boost gpu.

Yeah, the price dropped a lot. Hard to predict the lifetime of it because there are always some games that demands more power.
