Hi guys,

I need gaming rig recommendation based on above preferences. I had left the computer hardware technology for quite long time and really need your opinion to help me out. Is there any specific brand for GPU that is better than others nowadays? I also thinking of getting Skylake instead of Haswell due to I will not be upgrading my rig in the future. So I might fork out extra cash so that the rig can last few years longer.

Thanks!

Any specific brand for GPU that is better than others? The answer is depend on your luck, even those expensive "premium" brands like Asus, MSI, Gigabyte also have chance to fail/problem in just few weeks/months time, so just get the one with longest warranty period, like Zotac, 5 years warranty.

Your budget can fit SSD so no need to spend at SSHD, the 8GB SSD in SSHD doesn't really bring any significant speed improvement.

Intel Core i5 6500 - RM 875
MSI B150M Bazooka D4 - RM 409
Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB DDR4 2400MHz RAM - RM 289
Zotac GTX970 4GB GDDR5 ZT-90101-10P - RM 1479
Liteon S900 256GB SSD - RM 409
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 225
Seasonic S12II 620W - RM 349
Thermaltake Versa H25 - RM 139

Total: RM 4174 (Techview price inclusive of GST)

GTX750 isn't really enough for Fallout 4 to be honest, you are just under the min requirements, if you are ok with low/med settings then it should be fine.

And about the upgrade ability, Haswell is currently being replaced by Skylake now, so in terms of CPU upgrade, nope, not possible to jump from Haswell to next gen CPU due to socket difference, but you still can upgrade to Haswell i7 next time if you want. As for GPU, no issue there since the board is also using latest PCI-E 3.0. If you can find MSI B85M-E45, then get it instead of the Asus board, it comes with additional 2 RAM slots for future upgrade when needed.

So the budget includes the OS license key too? If yes, then not much you can squeeze anymore because genuine key is quite expensive here, it would take maybe 10% of your budget  

I see, well had a 2nd thought and "readjusted" my budget. So now in my mind:

Intel Core i5 4460 - RM830
MSI B150M Bazooka D4 - (The shop doesn't have this, probably I'll look at other shops. Or do you have other recommendation similar to it?)
Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB DDR4 2400MHz RAM - RM 289
Zotac GTX960 2GB GDDR5 (MSG:GZ version) (Can't seem to find this brand either? Any other brands and model similar to it?)
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 225
FSP Hexa+ 550W - RM 189
Thermaltake Versa H25 - RM 139

Btw, I am based in Penang.

Ok back to budget of 3k (without OS) Sorry I know, I have been adjusting a few times. 

You picked a Haswell CPU, so the mobo and RAM listed above need to be changed due to compability issue.

So you are buying the parts in Penang? Not much choices then because product range is limited there. You can try to find Hikari85 in Garage Sales, she has a shop in Butterworth.

Oh so the one, you suggested was a Skylake? (i56500) Sorry, I'm kinda lost touch with tech stuff now. I see, couldn't find the user though but once again Thank You very much!   

Hi, anybody can suggest me CPU casing which is similar to CM Storm Enforcer's dimensions? It must be 230mm wide at least as I am using a tower cooler.

My friend is looking to build a PC. Suggested rig is appreciated

Will use Haswell instead of Skylake due to budget unable to fit Skylake hardware.

And the price of GTX950 is just too close to GTX960, not worth the money.

Intel Core i3 4170 - RM 495
Asus H81M-K - RM 229
Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB DDR3 1600MHz RAM - RM 220
Gainward GTX960 2GB GDDR5 Reference - RM 799
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 225
FSP Hexa+ 550W - RM 189
CM N200 - RM 185

Total: RM 2342 (Techview price inclusive of GST)

Personal preference : Intel if possible.. AMD is still okay provided if I can run my games in high, if not ultra setting
