Was thinking it might be beneficial if we have a thread about which manufacturers have good local aftersales support. Ooowhh..im not sure we have that specific thread,But we do have this, https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/861703 |

QUOTE(eugene_tan6 @ May 1 2015, 03:22 AM) Is a r9 270x vapor-x crossfire recommended? And how much power would be recommended to power this crossfire up? As dozen of time mentioned in other thread, a single powerfull gpu is more realiable than 2 CF gpu,If u already have one card CF gonna b the most economical solution for upgrade oni if u take a 2nd hand gpu, if u just about to get new gpu, just go straight get a r9 280x/r9 290 instead, It need around 600-750watt to run these as it is amd, runs a lot of power This post has been edited by mod_po: May 1 2015, 04:35 AM |

Once again, thank you. please be note that mobile GPU n dekstop GPU is diffrent even the model is the same, the confiuration is not,Also, do you know what monitor would be the best at it's cheapest price to run 1080p for games like Advanced Warfare without lags? Preferably something in between 25-30". so ur laptop R7 265 is not the same with R7 265 desktop cheapest 24inch BenQ GL2450-B RM489 cheapest 27inch BenQ GL2760HS RM899 |

TYVM it is more economical to get that as the i5 K nid xtra juice n stable mobo to OC, next gen gaming already start to utlise multi thread which xeon have more, xeon is an i7 without iGPU with slight lower clock |

QUOTE(Besanth @ May 6 2015, 01:58 AM) I've been quoted at 2 different price ranges. One at RM2000 and another at RM3000. I did this comparison to see the games that I would play, would it be able to run at both. However, the RM2000 seems to fit perfectly with any games I would play maxed out settings at 1920x1080. for gaming pc,My final question is, for the RM2000 price range specs that I've received, which is this: Intel Core i5 4460 3.2GHz RM676.28 Asrock H81M-VG4 RM178.08 Sapphire R7 265 Dual-X OC 2GB GDDR5 RM581.94 Corsair Value RAM 4GB DDR3 1600MHz RM124 WD Caviar Blue 1TB RM199 FSP Hexa+ 550W RM199 Thermaltake Versa H25 RM135 Total:RM2093.30 Is it possible for me to swap out the Intel Core i5 4460 3.2GHz RM676.28 with an Intel Xeon E3-1231 V3 3.4GHz RM899? And if I do, would it create significant differences for my gaming/PC experience in general or is the differences compared to the price hike not worth it? Also, thank you all of those who contributed and helped me find the best spec sheet for my PC. I highly appreciate it. Would highly appreciate this final advice too. ur focus always GPU 1st than cpu, so if u thinking of better performance it is most advisable for u to get better GPU, Leadtek GTX960 ref RM830 (estimated), but my concern is more on ur RAM, for gud gaming exp u nid at least 8GB ram RM229, so if there is anyting u ask that u nid to fix on this RM2k build, i would say the ram 1st |
