3d rendering software uses lots of ram. Are you sure about that?furthermore, he already put 1 ssd in his rig, i think no need to put another ssd.

err i missde the sssd
anyway even wth the ssd on
i still think shud go gpu firsr then 16gb of ram
unless if he really eat up all his 8gb then the ram upgrade will come first...
imo

Sapphire R7 265 2GB DDR5 Dual-X
Seasonic S12 II 620W

Silverstone RVZ01.. brows.gif RM3xx from IdealTech AFAIK..you need a SFX PSU to power it up,though. tongue.gif
Bro,if want to suggest,check the person's budget first.. sweat.gif

XiuKeong,you don't need watercooler if you are not overclocking.Even the cheap CM Hyper TX3 Evo RM69-89 os enough. biggrin.gif Also,with that budget you have,include Gainward GTX970 4GB GDDR5 RM1099 from IdealTech.. brows.gif

Tq for the fast reply. I have some questions to ask you :

If I wanted to change to i5 or i7 in the future should I go for the Z97 mobo instead?
I am most probably will build a new pc after June 2015. Is it better to wait for Skylake since it might be out later this year?
*

[Budget] RM1.3k+-

[Purpose] For general office usage (Microsoft office, accounting software etc)

[Location] Ipoh

Been searching around for the hardware for my need. Here is the list hardware I gathered so far, please let me know is these spec are fine.

Pentium G3220 176
Asrock H81M-HDS 185
WD Blue 1TB hard disk 179
Kingston 4GB DDR3-1600 x1 125
Any 20" LCD ~ 300
Any Optical drive ~50

Total = RM1015

Meanwhile Im still undecided for psu and case. I see you guys here all seems to be recommending Antec VP400 @ RM109? Is that the best within the budget?
For casing, is CM Elite 360 okay? since I prefer it to be as small as possible.

cm n200 i think will be smaller..
u wan matx smallest rite?
specs are not bad specs

Stretchable to RM 3.7k. LOL! Very... Uhhh... Gonna get scold die for this by the gf but meh... Peace of mind than having a laptop that would cost 1 part worth RM 3.2k.

So looking at other threads and various other posts by you and others, I've come up with this (need to decide on a monitor):

CASE CM Elite 130  $169.00
CPU Intel E3-1231 V3  $829.00
GPU Gainward GTX970 4GB GDDR5  $1,099.00
HDD WD Caviar Blue 1TB  $179.00
MOBO Asrock H97-Pro4  $329.00
MONITOR BenQ GL2460HM  $539.00
PSU Seasonic M12II Evo 520W 80+ Bronze Fully Modular  $279.00
RAM Corsair 8GB DDR3 1600MHz  $229.00

Total: RM 3,652.00
