Hi. Need some advice for new pc

[Budget] Rm 2k

[Purpose] office work and design

[Hardwares that will be re-use] monitor

[Monitor resolution] full hd

[Games & softwares that use frequently] ms office, illustrator and photoshop

[Personal preferences] nil

[Location] kl

need recommendation for Motherboard and processor that can match well or with better upgrade capability for my current GPU : R9 280x Toxic.

Budget is around 1-2k (preferably with explanation why this mobo/processor over that)

Thank you

Games : Assassin creed 3, battlefield 4, and all future high end graphic games.

Ah I see. No use in getting the high speed rams then. Only very expensive keyboard supports higher than 2133Mhz.

Hey guys, this is my first time building a rig and I need some advice.

[Budget] RM 3 - 3.2k (would prefer to keep it below 3k but will spend a bit more if it makes a large difference in performance)

[Purpose] Gaming & Working

[Hardwares that will be re-use] Keyboard & mouse

[Monitor resolution] 1920 x 1080 (full hd)

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Witcher 3, Fallout 4, CS:GO, Matlab, PTC Creo

[Personal preferences]

This is what I came up with after reading a couple of reviews around the forum

Intel Core i5-4460 - RM 805
KINGSTON HYPERX FURY 8GB DDR3 1866MHZ RAM - RM 179
Zotac GTX960 2GB GDDR5 ITX - RM 799 (Christmas promotion)
WD Blue 2TB HDD - RM 309
FSP HEXA+ 550W 80Plus Power Supply - RM 189
Thermaltake Versa H21 - RM 139

*All prices obtained from Techview

I'm not sure what mobo to use and please recommend a good quality full hd monitor (preferably below RM700)
I can reduce hdd to 1TB and save about RM100 for other components.
Also please recommend anywhere within Penang Island where I can get better rates.

Oh dayum, motherboard I meant.. Hahahaha!

What's the cheapest Z series you can find? Probably around rm800-900? Too much I suppose. But I don't like the 'naked' value rams

Thankyou!
I would also like to ask, how much room do I have for upgrades with this build? Can I do any significant upgrades (better/SLI VGA , more ram, ssd etc) before needing to change my motherboard/PSU?
And how important is a sound card? Do I need one?

Yea, currenty looking at :-

Intel i5-6500 - Rm876
Intel i5-6600 - Rm987

Asus B150 Pro Gaming Aura - Rm559
MSI B150 Bazooka D4 - Rm399

Kingston Hyper-X Fury 8gb 2400Mhz - Rm239
FSP Hexa+ 550w - Rm189

Zotac GTX960 - Rm799
Zotax GTX970 - Rm1399
Zotax GTX970 Extreme Core - Rm1650

WD Blue 1TB HDD - Rm215
Keyboard & Mouse - Rm200

Re-use - Casing, SSD, Xonar Soundcard, Monitor, DVD-Rom.
Any improvements going for 16gb ram, or unnecessary for now?

I see. Wonder if I should wait a bit more and get the i7 6700 instead.. Hmm

I'm really sorry, I just managed to get a really good deal on an i7-4790k processor. Could you please recommend a 1150 mobo within the same price range instead? 
I'm also planning to use WiFi since the router is one floor below my room. Do I need to get a network card or does it come built in with the mobo?

Oh my, according to http://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidi.../m12582vsm33102 you are right. So dell xps 8900 is a scam.

Any other good cheaper 1440p monitor?

Nope, probably not going to overclock.

Budget will still be the same. A friend offered to sell me his 4th gen i7 for RM800 cause he's upgrading to the new 6th gen i7 
Will take look into those mobos. Those come with built in WiFi?

Hello,

I have bought MSI H170 gaming M3 mobo, and i5 6600, as suggested by the salesman too.
  for the recommendation
but now I have a problem, they don't really have Corsair (mayb its too cheap or something) so they're only left with G.skill ripjaw DDR4 or HyperX Fury DDR4, price difference of gskill abit more pricey by 2SGD (i'm in SG).

Which is better and any specific reason? or not much difference and I should just get ripjaw because the jaw are simply too coooool.

Thanks !

yes i think same, both was 2133 or 2400 mhz DDR4

another main concern is regarding motherboard

i am currently using ASUS P7P55-M
and i am changing to this MSI H170 gaming M3.
by myself.

What are the things that i should be looking out for when installing the mother board between the 2?
i.e. are there more USB port in new mobo that i need to put new cable?

are there anything that i need to change for new mobo like PSU? (currently using 520W seasonic)

need to upgrade my rig for video editing purpose.. current specs

i5 3470
cooler master 550w power supply
sapphire 7870 2gb graphic card
8gb ram
currently the rig lag when rendering videos. Means, i can't multi task while rendering.. which sucks. Any advice from sifu for which component to upgrade?

my budget is around rm1k-1.5k. 2nd hand components are acceptable

tq, can a i7 3770 use back the same mobo? btw.. same ghz, but since its 8core, should i expect alot of difference?

Will the replacement models for GTXxxx series come out soon? What's the life cycle of Nvidia GTX cards?

Hi, i would like to have your suggestion on my current PC spec for upgrade

Penang
Thank you for your time.

hi terence_nwb,
thank you for your suggestion.

I was wondering that my previous PSU (ACBEL 660W), is the suggested rig still able to power it? I encountered the PC was a bit slow to power on and thus the 1100W was purchased to solve the issue for power boot up.

as for the monitor, I do say that it is small due to my workstation size and I tend to upgrade it another time as the 23 - 24" monitor is over my current upgrade budget. I tend to upgrade it when the time comes.

Hi Guys

Just CPU for dota

Processor i3-6100
Graphic R7 370 NITRO Dual-X OC 4GB / 256BIT
Ram Preferred ddr4

or use i5 6400 igpu first and upgrade later?

Can help me to choose for other hardware? Total cost around how much?

other part remain the same if i go for i5?

Guys can share some advice on getting a new pc case? I wanna switch out from my Bitfenix Shinobi to something prolly of the same size. Prolly something aluminium and has better cooling, not looking for the best just looking for something with the best bang for buck.
