i don't think cycom got stock.

Ok you system builder sifus. Looking for a new PC, including monitor but excluding keyboard and mouse (since I have those).

Purpose: Gaming @ 1080p with Ultra settings @ minimum 60fps *today*.
Additional considerations:
1) Want a PC that can run reliably for the next 3-5 years. Obviously as newer more demanding games come out over time it's possible that I might need to eventually drop from Ultra to High settings to maintain 60fps minimums or get a new GPU in say 3 years time, that is fine. GPU upgrade is easily done and less troublesome than a CPU/MB upgrade.
2) Want a good 24inch monitor that is good for gaming (e.g. 120hz and <5ms response time? or Gsync? Not sure which is more important, please advise). 27inch is too big for my liking. 1080p is good enough as a result.
3) Budget: Am overseas (Australia), so budget calculations are a bit..... different? Let's say around RM5-6k range including a good monitor, but if you say +RM500 will offer a huge improvement (e.g. the next tier CPU/GPU/monitor) then I'll give it serious thought since I want this rig to last well.

Thanks

120-144hz and Gsync monitor with 6k budget? Not gonna happen. Too demanding with the budget you have.

Thanks!

Some curious questions about the rig you listed:
1) Assume the rig is chosen for overclocking power since the CPU is a K variant and the D15 is included, roughly how much of an overclock would you guesstimate could be achieved while remaining safe/stable over the long run?

2) The Dell monitor looks like amazing value for money for an IPS panel, but does the 8ms response time make a noticeable difference for gaming? A lot of the stuff I hear about "gaming displays" (e.g. 2ms response time, 120-144hz, even Gsync) is news to me, so I'm wondering if it's a "night and day" kind of difference or just "it's nice if you have it, but you might as well wait 1-2 years for prices to drop since it's not a huge difference" kinda thing?

I'll skip the Asus display, while the specs look amazing 27inches is too big for me and the price premium is a bit too brutal

i dont think D14 / D14 can fit in the 400R casing.

I've been using U2414H for a month now. Don't see any difference. Monitor prices drops slowly. We won't know how long "gaming" monitors becomes affordable/

Easier if you go to apes, they sell all the tubings, waterblocks , radiators. And they can assemble it for you.

Dear all sifus

Need help
This my first time on building my own budget gaming pc and I dont even know where to start.

I would like to know the minimum build that can play modern games(like ac4 and bioshock infinite) with medium-high setting. My budget is 1.5k-2k. Is my budget is too low or I can still play the game with low setting?? I hope I can anyone can help me.

Thank you in advance

Looks good. Power supply is overkill. Go for Seasonic M12 II Evo 520W at RM279 (modular). Best you can get at this price range.

Medium is fine with this
