[Location] kl

I know the budget is tight, appreciate it you could help

Intel Core i3 4150 - RM 398.56
Asrock H81M-VG4 - RM 178.08
Corsair 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Value RAM - RM 229
Sapphire R7 250X 1GB GDDR5 - RM 344.50
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 189.74
FSP Hexa+ 550W - RM 199
Aerocool V3X Advance - RM 104.94
Samsung 20' S20C300FY monitor - RM 333.90

Total: RM 1977.72 (Price with cents is from Jayacom and the rest without cents is from Viewnet inclusive of GST)

Isn't it better to get an NVidia GPU for AutoCAD,no?

goldfries,can you please pin this thread?Thanks!

Congratz on new thread yahoo!

Nvidia GPUs have slight advantage over AMD in autocad but looks like he will use the rig for gaming like GTA V and the R7 250X will be a bit better than the same priced GT740.

Can i order parts online from jayacom?

Their online store still not yet complete the set up, but you can give them a call and see if they are doing shipment.

yes! I would say most of the time I will just use it to watch movies..gaming and cad? not so much..

I'm currently using a 4 years old ASUS N55S laptop. Would you recommend to fork out the 2k to upgrade to a brand new desktop? or just invest in a giant hdmi monitor? any monitor recommendation with budget of 600?

Definitely forking out 2K for a new PC would be great.

Monitor, you can go for 24-inch 1080p BenQ EW2440L at RM675.

Thanks. What about viewnet?

Viewnet also doesn't have online order service, if you want order online and ship the parts to your doorstep, you can try Idealtech, Techview, DotaTech, E-Tech etc.

https://www.nzxt.com/product/detail/34-phantom.html in love with that case, love the design, so futuristics. what do you think?

This post has been edited by TheDeadlySins420: May 10 2015, 04:01 PM

if full rig i would suggest idealtech..their warranty sevice is good as well

Nice case but if you like Phantom + H440 design, I suggest you to wait for Noctic 450, the baby of both cases

You mean this? love the aggresive design https://store.nzxt.com/products/noctis-450-black-red

Yes

So what is the diffence between mid and full tower case anyway?
