[Budget] RM6500

[Purpose] Photoshop, Illustrator and gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] Monitor, 4TB HDD

[Personal preferences] Don't really need a dvd drive and would be a plus if everything can fit and cooled reasonably well in a relatively small case
Thanks in advance

Intel Xeon E3 1231 V3 - RM 979
Asrock H97 Pro4 - RM 369
Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Value RAM - RM 229
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 199
Leadtek GTX970 4GB GDDR5 Hurricane - RM 1429
Seasonic M12II EVO 520W PSU - RM 299

Total: RM 3504 (Viewnet price inclusive of GST)

520W is enough for this setup, he can go for 620W if he wish to do so but I prefer modular cable, PC looks nicer and you can get rid of unused cable for better air ventilation.

The PSU& mobo i was planning to get ax760& z97k respectively so that i can use use it after future upgrades.

Will switch WD green for Seagate. 

For PSU i would prefer a higher wattage & quality one so that i don't have to change it in future. 

Was planning to get either AX760 or Cooler master 750 (which is only RM 500).

For mobo, decided to get MSI Z97-SLI KRAIT. Planning to get another GTX 970...

Might get a K-series processor too in the future
