QUOTE(lace @ Jan 3 2015, 07:34 PM) You can't fit tower cooler on ITX case.QUOTE(RedFezz @ Jan 3 2015, 07:40 PM) hi thanks.does xeon is much better than intel core (i5/i7) in general and graphic/rendering purpose? Xeon is slightly slower than i7. Only difference is slightly slower speed and no built-in GPU.Almost everyone goes Intel and Nvidia when it comes to graphics or 3D rendering. |

QUOTE(ErgoProxi @ Jan 5 2015, 02:22 PM) A couple of simple questions. Yes, two 2.5" HDD is lighter than one 3.5"1. Is two 2.5 hdd lighter than one 3.5 hdd? 2. Is i3 4150 enough for rendering? Thanks in advance. Not recommended. Rendering is all about number of cores and threads. The more you have, the faster it gets. |

QUOTE(Minecrafter @ Jan 6 2015, 07:30 AM) His question was about CPU,for GPU different thing. Idealtech and C-Zone has easy payment plan. Maybank credit card is required. As for other credit cards, gotta check with them.Eh,3.5K is possible with GTX970.. CPU:Intel Xeon E3-1231 V3 3.4GHz RM819 MoBo:Asrock H97-Pro4 RM329 GPU:MSI GTX970 4GD5T RM1249 - IINM,another name for it is Tiger OC.

That is over budget,but you can haggle with them to get it cheaper or switch out the MoBo to Asrock B85M-HDS RM239. About paying with installment,i've no idea. |

Good Z97 motherboards that can overclock better doesn't come cheap.Would need your comment on the following rig that I plan to build before CNY Proc : i5 4690K Mobo : Ram : 8GB Hard Disk : WD Blue 1TB hard disk PSU : Seasonic M12 II Evo 520W Graphic Card : Gainward Phantom GTX970 Monitor : Will reuse Casing, DVD Drive, Keyboard & Mouse. I cannot decide which mobo is the best (less than RM 400) and monitor (preferably 23", not too glossy screen & less than RM 600) For gaming (not too hardcore) Please comment on my build. Thank you. Xeon E3-1231 V3 is more value for money if you are not going to overclock. It is i7 in disguise without built-in GPU. This post has been edited by TristanX: Jan 6 2015, 02:13 PM |
