I mean, anyone who purchase gpus is because they want to game right? Hahahaha, how well does Gainward fare?
3 years?

Well it is still out of reach.... my budget is RM500-600 which only can allow for GTX750Ti. Are there any better gpu in this range?
I'm using Phenom II X4 955 BE with a Silverstone 500W PSU (if i recall correctly...currently not at home).
*
gtx 660 should be within that range, has a bit more performance than the 750ti

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.
*
You can get Antec VP 550W-rm199 , which is based on Delta OEM , also I've used the fsp hexa 500w on my sisters rig and it can power up a gtx 760 no problem.

Well if you're still a bit hesitant , just grab Seasonic S12ii 620w bronze-rm299 , its a good psu and silent when operation (suggest get this too if you can expand your budget a bit)

Guys, need recommendation for a desktop pc

Budget 3 to 4k
Purpose: gaming

Just the desktop pc, no monitors n keyboards/mouse

Im thinking of getting an sli compatible mobo, but use one card first, so later on i can add another card. And if possible wanna use i7. Possible with that budget? Maybe can stretch a bit la

Well if for only gaming, the core i5 is actually a nice cpu to have. Not many games do utilize the hyperthreading that the i7 offers

Great then

Any disadvantages/advantages between geforce n radeon? Read on the net that geforce runs quieter and at lower temp compared to radeon

Is SSD that important for gaming? Ive read some comparison, the difference is about 20 secs, which im willing to wait. Up to 1 minute extra is still ok for me
*
Bro rav3n82 had already explained that for you biggrin.gif , if you don't mind the functionality that the SSD brings I suggest grab a 3TB hard disk instead which will give ample rooms for your games and other downloadable stuffs tongue.gif . As games this days do come in big sizes (i.e BF4 (more than 30gb and more recently the new Wolfenstein is more than 40GB) .

Not much difference between AMD and Nvidia, though I do like Nvidia better due to their better driver support.

GTX 760 is good enough to be played in between high to ultra settings at 1080P so yeah if you wan't save a bit more on that it's fine.

For the time being minus HDD and SSD. Plus, no need OS, casing, peripherals, and ODD.

Possible to get Xeon and Titan GPU??

yup it has one of the highest out of the box clock speed of the 780ti. Like minecrafter can refer to gbros for that price (plus don't forget to ask to include that Watch Dogs game bundled together with the gpu biggrin.gif )

In the end i spent 3k...a big thank you to feiton for it haha..damn promos and poisoning...

Question! I bought a 2nd hand monitor (good price..half year old 2340L for RM400) but his cable is from hdmi to dvi...any difference between that and hdmi in both ends?

Thank youu
*
only difference is hdmi to dvi don't carry any audio signal while hdmi in both ends carry both visual and audio signal. Both supports full HD resolution (aka 1080P)

Because I live far from peninsular and my area kinda lack of computer parts for the likes of us; custom pc builder that wants more value and performance. That is why I need to find a legit store (highly trusted) for 'online shopping' X(.

Based on this link, the r9 250 from sapphire almost same bandwidth and memory clock speed as 3870, so I guess r7 250 will perform better than hd3870.

Hate to say though but I still think HIS still much better in terms of performance, this is my personal opinion, no offense, but here are the comparisons for both sapphire and his brand but both site uses slightly different system but I dont think it has much impact on performance. I dont know because Im not good in hardware though and finding those reviews under same site never existed

http://i2hard.ru/reviews/obzor-chetyrex-vi...-radeon-r7.html]sapphire[/URL]

HIS

Which store offers best deal for this gpu? Or any of them could import HIS for me? XD

Thank you in advance
*
try and get the R7-250X vapor (sapphire) as it has slightly more shader and memory freq. It's basically a HD7770 vapor-x rebadge. Don't worry it's a good level entry card, you can see the review around the webs. It's a bit more powerful than a gtx 650 mind you wink.gif

around RM329 im thinking about getting the Phanteks Enthoo Pro, i love the features it provide but not so much on the look.
and its a full tower case.

so RM325 i can get a Phantom 410, a nice looking case but with less features than the Enthoo Pro and the window is small too.
eventho this is mid-tower case..the size isnt very much different compare to the Enthoo Pro right?

and now im confuse on which one to get. im open for suggestion.
*
Well if you're not going to venture into having multiple cards, installing 240mm/360mm radiator or custom loop . I say the phantom 410 is a nice case to have. It has several colour plus has all the bell and whistles that you need. The only downside is that it doesn't come with dust filters sweat.gif but you can buy the magnetic dust filters which cost around rm15-20 like that or you can DIY from mosquito nets brows.gif

size wise

phanteks enthoo pro is a full tower while the phantom 410 is a mid tower (but its a big mid tower), so yeah if you like red , you'll definitely like the look of the 410 wink.gif

guys, im planning to get r9 280x. should i change my hexa 500w psu to something better to run the gpu?

anyone hv tested running r9 280x on fsp hexa 500w without any hiccups? pc specs as in my sig.

thx
*
change bro, the 280X is a bit of a power hogger. Later if you run unigine valley or play games, blue screens will pop up and instant crash sweat.gif . I had tested the powercolour 280x turbo duo before and the power consumption is just awful sweat.gif . Get at least a 600w psu, FSP Raider 650W is pretty decent and the price is around rm250-270.

should perform nicely. It doesn't need a power connector so power consumption will be low thumbup.gif

If you want to do overclocking yes the G3258 is good. To me both of the 280X and 770 are on par with each other. If you like to play games that uses the Nvidia Gameworks e:g Upcoming Assassin's Creed title then the way to go is Nvidia. I think AMD has upper advantage on Far Cry as per usual.
*
They are almost on par, i tested the 280x and the 770, in games like watch dogs the 770 performs slighly a bit better while in Bf4 you do see the 280x with mantle Performs quite well. The extra memory vram on the 280x some may say it's useful but i see it as pretty much redundant. Power consumption wise the 770 is more efficient . Even if you have a good 550w psu, you will most likely get away with it smile.gif
