[Purpose]
Browsing Web, Homework, YouTube, Social, Some mini online games that is NOT heavy graphic (You can think of it as it was a light casual user)

[Hardwares that will be re-use]
NONE

[Games & softwares that use frequently]
Chrome are the most and Microsoft Office are seconds.

[Personal preferences]
- Core i3 model
- Mobo (no idea) (2 Ram Slot would be more than enough; No plan for future graphic card upgrade)
- HDD 1TB
- RAM 4GB
- DVDReader
- Power supply + Casing (if small or compact would be a bonus)
- 24" monitor
- I need a WiFi adapter (Using UNIFI)

[Location] Gonna buy from Idealtech again, but not sure which spec list to start from.

PS: Not sure my budget can throw in a 24" IPS Monitor? I saw Dell one RM8XX if that case, my rig would be just RM1k only

Thanks, how about change the ram to 8gb ?
Btw is there any alternative graphic card for nvidia ?

Typo on the RAM price, it's RM134. 8GB is RM249.

You can find Leadtek GTX760 at RM749 from Viewnet. Or, Gainward GTX970 reference at RM1099 from Idealtech or lingloong.

Alright, so is it better to get 1 stick 8gb or 2 stick 4gb ?
And I stick back AMD graphics card better lol

You might wanna wait for GTX960. There are some pics of GTX960 cards already flying around.

Can't wait already, even wait for it my budget sure over already

just stick 1x8gb ram.

But 2x4gb got dual channel right @_@

ya no much different so u can upgrade another 8gb in future

Hello sifus..mind me askin what aftermarket cooler shud i get for a small form factor chasis.. As much as the corsair AIO is popular, i have also heard they have high pump failure..

Do advice thanks!

Noctua NH-L9i RM169 from IdealTech.

seems like a good cooler bro...got some other brand which go with the theme im going for? red black? ahaha any suggestion?

Hi there all! Would need some help on this!


Budget around RM3,000

Purpose I am a multimedia designer so I do quite a bit of video editing and web programming. I also do a fair bit of programming for web and interactive installations.

Monitor resolution Maybe one 23" 1920x1080 monitor

Games & software that use frequently a whole bunch of Adobe products from Adobe illustrator & photoshop to Adobe Premiere Pro & After Effect. Adobe dreamweaver and Adobe Flash for coding.

Personal preferences Would prefer to have a setup with a bunch of storage and also SSD to run the software.


THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH! smile.gif

I might go with the msi H97M-G43 if available...also, would you recommend water cooling or there's too much pump failures to justify its reliability? on the cheaper side..air cooling seems to be the way to go, do you have any recommendations? thanks

Cooler master V750 still recommended? As I searched through the google,is it not the V700 that by seasonic. Quite misleading though.

Thinking getting the V750 for gtx970 sli. Is it a green light or a nono? X-650 seemed to be a little too high price..

How about these?

Xeon E3-1231 V3 - RM829
Asrock H97 Pro4 motherboard - RM329
Kingston 8GB DDR3-1600 x1 - RM249
Leadtek GT740 1GB DDR5 - RM319
Intel 530 120GB SSD - RM259
WD Blue 1TB hard disk - RM174
DVD writer of your choice - RM59
Antec VP500 power supply - RM149
Bitfenix Neos case - RM179
Acer S230HL 23" monitor - RM449

RM2995 total (Viewnet prices)

Try Coolermaster TPC-812 from Sri Computers at RM159. Noctua NH-D15 at RM369 from Viewnet if you wanna max out.

V750 Semi-modular is ok. The reason why Seasonic X-650 is higher because this is Tier 1 PSU. V750 Semi-modular is Tier 2. Tier 1 has the best performance and quality of the parts inside.
