How about PSU? Is Hyper fury x ram good enough?
Thanks
*
PSU option

Seasonic M12II-750 EVO (80+Bronze) RM439
Seasonic X-750 (80+Gold) RM659

Any RAM brand would do, RAM doesnt contribute much on gaming performance

Forgot to ask, what about my cpu? is the Amd Phenom II x6 1055t recommended? or is my cpu already good enough to play the games i want at medium/high.
*
ur cpu is an old cpu,
i would say it will somehow tone down the GTX960 performance,
but with ur limited budget, even the GTX960 is get slow down,
u will feel a really2 big dffrent from ur current build

with a motherboard that has am2+ socket, what cpu is recommended?
*
i would not recommend you to change the cpu,
on the pricelist, no shop still selling that cpu family,

just go with the GTX960,
n keep the saving,
until u afford to buy a new current mobo+cpu

Hi, Guys.  rclxm9.gif I wonder where did you guys buy the pc parts after planned. Was it through online or directly from shop?
I'm planning to build a new gaming rig around 3k capable of playing games like BF4 and Witcher 3 without problem. Any suggestions? Thank you biggrin.gif
*
It is all depends actly,
if u dun have time, on9 shop is ur solution,
and also if u dun live within kl area,
because small shops outside kl usually sell component way higher price, btter deal on9
the oni setback is the dealing would take long time to deal

Direct to shop (lowyat) is btter option, but oni if u have time,
It is not ncessary u take a complete rig in one shop,

Can I have an option with an i5 instead of an Xeon? He lives in Terengganu so I don't know what his options are. He just needs a rough guideline of what he could buy. Then up to him to choose himself
*
in that case,
buy on9, more cheaper than buy at small shops,
they usually put margins of their transporattion cost,

can search for idealtech, techview, e tech, gbros here,
n also idealtech have their own website,
techview, e tech, gbros have lelong website

The different between brand is insignificant right? But ideal tech seem to give a good price if buy bundle. And they dont sell other brand of gpu except asus
*
yup, interm of performance,
most of the custom clock GPU is on the same performance,
asus have strix, leadtek have hurrican, gigabyte have windforce, palit have jetstream, zotac have amp, galaxy have HOF, bla....bla...blaa..
most of them is on the same performance,
but in term of price, msi, gigagbyte and asus seems to be lil bit overprice,
but however, zotac gives u the longest warranty 3+2 years..

this only as guide for min requirement,
u dun nid that xpensive PSU to power up this rig, unless u going for GTX960 + OC cpu,
we always prefer intel+nvidia combo (for now),
u still have option to swap with dell monitor, better quality n color

another opt is; swap the SSHD with

Hey sifus, please help me with something.

My friend wanted to buy me specs from another country, but i have no idea what's the difference. Could some1 help me out:

One recommended by you sifus(before GST):
Intel Xeon E3-1231 V3 3.4GHz RM899
Asrock B85M-HDS RM249
Gainward GTX970 4GB GDDR5 RM1099
Kingston Value RAM 8GB DDR3 1600MHz RM219
WD Caviar Blue 1TB RM184
Seasonic M12II Evo 520W 80+ Bronze Fully Modular RM279
Thermaltake Versa H25 RM129
Total:RM3058
The 1 my friend found:

I7 4790K RM 1150
ASROCK Z97 EXTREME 4 RM 620
GSKILL 8GB 1600 CL7 RM 320
EVGA GTX 970 SC RM 1490
WD 1TB BLUE RM 185
ANTEC 520W BRONZE RM 280
Total price: 4045

Should I be going for the 2nd 1? because I told my friend to get me the first rig, but he said he couldn't find the parts, also whats the difference between EVGA GTX 970 SC and gainward? are all gtx 970s compatible to the same mobo?
*
if ur usage oni for gaming, get the 1st rig,
that evga is custom cooler variant, shud perform 2-5% better,
but not worth the xtra RM400 different

if oni for gaming, better invest on SSD, will boost ur performance
