No, the monitor is out of the budget. I just wanna check which monitor can fully utilize GTX 970.

Excuse me Sir, I wanna ask regarding the Dell U2414H, I know is IPS, but is it Matte finishing?

Thank you for the input, much appreciated but I have decided to get another CPU.
So my final setup will look like this:

Intel i7-4790
Hyper 412 (got it quite cheap)
MSI Z97 Krait Edition SLI
Kingston Hyper Fury (White) 8gb x 1
Seagate 1Tb. HDD
Xigmatek VECTOR 650W
Gainward GTX-970 Phantom 4gb.
Dell U2414H 24" IPS

Total cost = RM3,545

Now, the only missing piece is the casing, still hunting high and low for a NZXT S340...

Or do you guys have any good ideas for a nice PC casing?
Cheers!

Hello?? am planning to buy today, can anyone please reply with any insight on the matter?

Thank you for your feedback...

I know, but I'm going to SLI sometime in the future, and H97/H87 doesn't support SLI.
I got the i7-4790 for less than RM900... (matching my budget for the E3-1231 v3 anyways)
As for the Xigmatek Vector 650W, it's 80+ Silver rated and cost less than RM250... can't go wrong there!

Seasonic S12II 620W PSU beats the PSU that you've.For the quality of the PSU,we take a look at its component quality etc.

You should've asked before buying the parts,you know..
GPU or PSU?

Why does the GTX970 cost so much for used?

I bought the exact card for 1150 from idealtech ._.

Actually there are 2 version of the Gainward GTX970... One is the Phantom (max boost of 1312Mhz) and another is the reference version.
Of course the Phantom version would perform better than the reference version, but the price gap is small, so if he can stretch to Phantom, he should get that one 

Just my 2 cents 

if not mistaken, the S is glossy coating, while the U is anti-glare (myb matte coating), n the U equiped with rotating arm

i know right, kinda regret for not thinking thoroughly when i buy it. i was thinking if i get the single stick it would be a good idea to upgrade and add another 8gb stick. but after i reading from many sites( should have done this before buy   ) 8gb was already more than enough. should have gone for 4gbx2 for purely aesthetic. i guess i will buy 4gbx2 kit and sell of the single ram   

btw i was using a Sunbeam CCf tower cooler for my q6600 before, is there anywhere that sell an universal bracket in order to fit my new i5 4460 1150 socket?

i7 4790 (2nd hand roughly 700-800)
mobo not sure
case not sure
16gb 1600mhz ram (I assume 2nd hand cost RM400+/-, except if it is some high end performance RAM)
palit 770 4gb (something under RM700/750 seems reasonable)

2.5k exclude monitor

2nd hand

a good buy?

Meaning that the Asus GTX750 will work juz fine like leadtek GTX750 ti or Gainward GTX 750 GS? Just that the Asus GTX750 is slightly overpriced?

Sorry to budge in, but actually i asked on behalf of him dy, and he is my gf's younger bro which is not computer illiterate, same like me.

all above that are nice but the momboard still have video output, is that necessary? since i have a GPU

i will.. ask the seller.

is there any possibility he can fake the software output as different spec

what if the momboard change to the one which can 4slot ram and crossfire? how many money i should add in?

There is CF mobo that is cheap, but is not effective as the high end mobo..

Usually cf support mobo is cheaper than sli support mobo

sorry just google that out and found that is really a cheap and crossfire momboard. if im lucky there still in stock. haha

Yup they selling the older h87 n z87 mobo quite cheap now.u shud hunt for them first, any brand would do..

If u not lucky u can go with msi h97 gaming or asrock h97 perfomance, both is RM474

Hi, I just assembled my rig mostly as per you guys recommended previouslyand i even managed to get some pre-gst price from a dealer i found....

Xeon 1231 v3
Kingston Hyper Fury 4gb x 2
Regular 1tb HDD
ASRock h97m-itx
Leadtek GTX970
Thermaltake SmartSE PSU 630w
Thermaltake Core v1 case

Saw some comments here that the Xeon runs quite hot, any recommendation on cooler with height < 140mm
