My bad, I meant Prodigy M. Price should be roughly the same. I suggested a m-ATX board since it has better expandability options in future.

I am looking to build a HTPC.
Budget 2-2.5k.
I need smooth 4k video playing and loads fast. I don't mind getting a SSD for fast loading apps. Any reckon? Thank you in advance.

Fixed that cheap 1.2TB SSD.

BTW,smooth video playing isn't dependant on the GPU huh?

I'm not that familiar with 4K video playing.Correct me if i'm wrong ya'll.

Hi, I'm helping my friend to build a new rig.
I saw jayacom now has the haswell refresh cpu in the list. Is it worth to get the haswell refresh?

Lol. I got multiple buddies with 15-25k builds. All mostly for looks and branding. To be honest, anything more than 2 GPUs is a joke. So is buying overpriced Mobos and RAM.

[Budget]: Around RM1500

[Purpose]: Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use]: Needs the rig only. Re-using my old DVD-Drive.

[Monitor resolution]: Full HD, 1920*1080.

[Games & softwares that use frequently]: osu!, LoL, google chrome. (might play heavier games in the future  )

[Personal preferences]: Try to stick with Intel 

[Location]: KL area. Can visit Lowyat plaza no problem.

So far light gaming only. If possible can get a better CPU. Probably will upgrade to a better Graphic Card after this when I play games a lot 

Bro, can help if which will be better for those in red font... Both price about the same.....

CPU: Intel i7-4770k
Mobo: Asus B85-Pro Gaming or ASRock Fatal1ty H87 Performance
RAM: G-Skill Rip Jaw X 1866 CL9
GPU: Asus GTX760 DCII OC or PowerColor R9-280X 3GB TurboDuo or Gigabytes R9- 280 X OC
SSD: Intel 730 series 240gb 
ODD: Lite-On 24X CD/DVD Writer
PSU: Seasonic M12ii Modular (620w)
CASE: Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-03
DSP: Dell S2340L - LED IPS
Thanksssss

Already got the my CPU (i7-4770k) and SSD (intel 730s 240gb).....
For gaming... gaming.... n gaming.... 
Budget around RM2500-2600....

But i have no intention to OC the CPU yet now    not really know how to do it... n worry burnt it too... 
Anyway, i get 4770k from overseas, get it for price similar to i5-4670k...
will it be a waste?? if i got for Asrock Z87 killer... but will not OC??

So.. question back to the Mobo n GPU... 
Any recommendation?? or there are others choice??

Are there any alternatives for the PSU? I dont mind spending a little bit more since i've learnt my lesson not to skimp on them >.>

Also, no plans to upgrade, so I can go as low as 400W.

Hi, is that below spec ok or need some modify? for normal use only

CPU : Intel Core i5-4460
Motherboard: ASRock H97 Pro4
RAM: Kingston 4GB DDR3
PSU: FSP Hexa 500w

Civilization is heavy on GPU eh?

Btw,i think PS eats up a lot of RAM..

Hi,

[Budget]
RM 5500

[Purpose]
Video game
Listen to music - Should I get external DAC or sound card?
Movies

[Hardwares that will be re-use] -

[Monitor resolution]
Want to get monitor with 27" 2560x1600. But if it's not suitable for gaming then can go for 23"/24" 1920x1200. Prefer 16:10 ratio.

[Games & softwares that use frequently]
High graphics video games, crysis.. etc, etc..

[Personal preferences]
Want to get a PC to play high graphics video games, preferably minimum 80% close to highest settings. No low fps or lag.
System is quiet when not gaming. And not too loud when gaming, if possible.
No need ODD, as it's seldom used and I think Windows 8 can be installed through USB.
Please suggest keyboard and mouse too.
Can suggest speakers too. But it's not included in the budget, as they can be expensive.
