Will adding another RM500 to make it RM2.5K help?  Thanks

forgot to mention that my old rig is

p5ql pro asus (running in vista mode)
intel core 2 duo e7400
amd hd 2400 xt
power supply e-view 230v 4.0A
320gb HDD WD
4gb ram

is there anything i can savage from this to minimize the budget? sorry for burdening you and thanks for helping

Thanks !
1) According to the website of the PSU, it says that it supports only up to 4th generation, what does it mean? and will it affect me?
2) Is there another monitor that is 1080p but non-glossy? ( IPS or LED) but with around the same price?
3) Can i take my friend's windows 7 key to use it on mine then?

Thanks again !

Hi guys, need suggestion for a gaming rig.

[Budget] RM5000 + monitor

[Purpose] Gaming - Fallout 4 and Skyrim (High/Ultra settings @ avg 50 - 60fps)

Is that achievable? Or do I need a higher budget?

Good day. I need a little help here. My 2010 pc just died,and I need a quick replacement as my project is due in 3 weeks. Ive been looking around on lelong, and I found cheapest Skylake combo I could come up with. Here's the list:
Intel Pentium G4400 RM 285.60
MSI B150m Bazooka D3 RM 393

The mobo stated, it support ddr3. But I believe somebody said in this thread, ddr3 + skylake will have an issue in the long run. Do correct me if im wrong.
Btw, I dont overclock.

[Budget] Under RM 1k

[Hardwares that will be re-use] WD Blue 500gb, 2 x kvr16n11/4 (hopefully), aerocool vs3 casing, gigabyte hercules x580, palit gtx 660 2gb gddr5, 20" monitor, mouse, keyboard.

[Monitor resolution] Not sure. It's a 20" AOC e20-something,cant recall..

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Mainly Illustrator, Skyrim, M&B Warband, Sid Meier Civ V.

[Personal preferences] Skylake preferrably, upgradeable in the near future (mid 2016), Want to try mass effect.
Any suggestion appreciated.

Are you suggesting me getting a good CPU, and upgrading Mobo later? Does this mean that I need to format the windows later?
Since ive been using socket 1155 for some times now,i was leaning toward latest platform. I think G4400 could still get the job done, but I maybe wrong. What if I grab this 4gb Gskill high performance ddr4 2133mhz for RM 129? It'll still be under the budget,and I get Skylake.
Thank you for your time.

NBA 2K16 (steam?)
Droid4x (android emulator)

[Hardwares that will be re-use]
Friend is selling me a corsair casing for RM150 (i forgot the casing name)

Cryorig H7
Gigabyte Z170XP-SLI
EVGA GTX970 FTW+ ACX2.0 / Gigabyte GTX970 G1 Gaming
Seasonic M12II-520 EVO

Need suggestions for the cheapest SSD and 2x4GB DDR4 RAM.

Also still can't decide which of the two graphics card I should go for.
