[Budget]5k. 5.5k max

[Purpose] Gaming such as FM, GTA, NFS, FIFA, DOTA2 and Photoshop mainly

[Hardwares that will be re-use] None

[Monitor resolution] No idea. Im not well-knowledge in PC. Suggest me.

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Same as 2nd point

[Personal preferences]
Big monitor if possible. Include all other parts such as wifi card, windows etc because I never had a pc before so it would be nice if it comes in complete set. I want a build that has very good cooling and also future proof that can last me about 5 years. Also I prefer the rigs being assembled for me. Is it possible lol?

Also with the budget of 5k, will I get more powerful pc if I buy Alienware?

RAM can be switched to just 1 stick of 8GB because the mobo you have chosen only got 2 RAM slots, so future RAM upgrade (to 16GB) will be restricted if you get 2 x 4GB now.

Mobo itself have some basic integrated sound system. Just plug connectors into the audio port behind will do.

It works fine enough for most people. Only those who are more picky on sound quality will need to invest extra on a better dedicated sound card.

Everything pretty balanced and solid for their price. As for performance, it pretty much determined by the GPU. To play AAA title shouldn't be much problem since most games are created with minimum requirement below GTX760. But you should adjust the graphic details and settings accordingly to make the frames more smooth.

The only thing I may suggest you to change is a slightly better mobo. Nothing crucial but you get PCIE 3.0, more RAM slots and so on.

No idea but personally feel that they won't entertain you if you only get a part or two from them. The least you should be getting casing, mobo, PSU and CPU all together then I will only consider assemble for you if I'm the shop owner.

Also, most shops do provide further discount if you get them all parts from them. Try and list out the specs list and ask them to quote you the best price.

Normally ITX GPU comes with 1 fan only so the clock speed will be lower than standard ATX size GPU.

The performance difference is very small, maybe 1-5 FPS difference in games.

[Budget] RM5k-RM5.5k maybe 6k

[Purpose] High End Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] None

[Monitor resolution] 1080p

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Witcher 3, GTA V, Batman: Arkham Knight, whatever AAA games coming out in the future at >60fps at least in high settings

[Personal preferences] Would like an SSD that's atleast 128gb, 2-3tb of HDD space(need storage for movies/etc), 8gb ram, might get another 8gb later on the road, 23"/24", no need for mouse/keyboard/speakers.
Semi decent casing, would not be travelling around. I'm thinking if it's worth going for higher resolution/size monitor but that'll increase the price of the monitor and gpu by too much.

[Location] KL

Planning on getting within 2-3 months, would like some suggestions. Would waiting till end of 4th quarter help with any of the prices?

Not interested in overclocking but if stock cooler too noisy would prefer to change it. Semi decent casing, would not be travelling around. I'm thinking if it's worth going for higher resolution/size monitor but that'll increase the price of the monitor and gpu by too much.
