around 1-1.5k for processor, mobo, and PSU. maybe a new piece of ram too.

My total budget would be around 3k full set excluding monitor. But i dont think i need a new video card so soon. Just wanted to replace my spoiled mobo, and to be able to play fifa16 and cs only. I assume my video card can support fifa16 right?

If you want to reuse your current RAM, you need to go with Haswell (4th gen), assuming it's DDR3 1333MHz/1600MHz, make sure it is compatible with new RAM, if not compatible, new 8GB RAM is enough for now.

Intel Core i5 4460 - RM 769
MSI B85M-E45 - RM 313
Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Value RAM - RM 199
FSP Hexa+ 550W - RM 199

Total: RM 1480 (Viewnet price inclusive of GST)

Hi Terence, thank you for the suggestion.

I think I'll just get the new 8gb ram since old ram is very old, don't think it will last long. So its ok to use my old video card first, and upgrade to a much better one later right.

Just noticed that viewnet is located at KL, I'm in Malacca, that's mean I need to order from their shop? Do they help the customer to assemble and install the os?

Need a suggestion for cpu cooler, case is Corsair Air 240.
Or if I really need a third party cooler for my i5 4690 no OC, only for movie, surfing, coding and gaming?

How about this budget gaming rig.

I think the cheapest available option here is the Asrock B85M-ITX,priced around RM325.

Better than both builds.What's your budget anyway?

any other option minecrafter? any mobo that cost around 250 or less?

i think i will stick i3 for this one since i have already had i5 (haswell) and i7 (haswell) in my stable.

You really can't tell much the differences in real world and i can go up to 4K max but if i can save up to 1K it will be damn good.

I think if you buy the parts for a whole rig,only then they will.Not sure.

Sigh, do any of the mentioned shop in this thread do postage?

Never assemble a pc, install os and other necessary software before.

Edited: just noticed there is thundermatch available in melaka, although their stocks may not be as much as those in KL.

Try Idealtech then, free postage (for rig > 3k) and rig installation.

Added the entry level of Skylake while retaining other hardware.

Haswell can serve you well with your requirements actually, so no need to spend another RM 500 just to get Skylake due to the price of Skylake mobo (DDR4 based) is very expensive. You can think of switching back to DDR3 based Skylake but there are reports saying DDR3 (1.5V and 1.65V) RAM will damage the memory controller due to high voltage so it is not recommended until a fix is issued.
