[Budget] RM3k to 4k

[Purpose] movie, gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] none, will need a brand new desktop

[Monitor resolution] anything 20"+

[Location] kl

My budget 2-3K

mainly surfing and secondary for games
was wondering can i use SSD just for boot up comp and hd for the rest (don't need so much as i have a NAS for videos and pic)
is water cooling necessary?

any recomendation on parts and why?

want to play the new xcom 2   

Has anyone here using Athlon X4 860k for gaming? hows the performance wise and daily basis usage experience.. been thinking of getting one for HTPC

cutting things short, jumping from fx8350 to skylake 6600k with plans going on to 6700k later due to work requirements - after effects/3d works/games

budget is 2.5k
confirm is
a)i5 6600k - rm1033
b)thermaltake s31 - rm321
need help recommending on
1) mobo - currently Asus Z170 Pro Gaming fits my budget nicely -rm705
2) ram - 8gb single for now,another 8gb later - KINGSTON HYPER-X FURY 8GB DDR4 2666MHZ RAM -rm249
im using cooler master cm690 II right now, would it be wiser if i just use this case first and go straight for 6700k?
or change case now, and upgrade cpu later? the cm690 works fine just that its a freakin dust magnet.

Perhaps light game and with mid-range GPU, say 4gb x2 of rams kinda build

makes sense. that mobo ok ka?

Hi A friend has ask me to help them look for a 2x computer

1x Home and simple/medium Gaming

Since its a considered a low end system, I opted to buy a pre made PC as it seems cheaper, not to mention hassle free.
I have narrow it down to the 2 bellow

- 3 year warranty, less hassle if anything goes wrong.
- i will add another 4gb ram total 6gb
- looks like a full size tower easy customization CPU can be upgraded if needed later
- atx PSU can easily replaced if anything goes wrong.

Now i need to find Ori Windows. Im still new in lowyat assume below all good sellers for Ori OS?

I was thinking of choosing Windows 7 or 8.1, they just need something stable office environment.
What you guys think?
Not sure if Windows 10 is suitable for them.
-Just dont like the idea of windows force updates and can potentially screw drivers and other stuff.
-Big Brother mentality, scanning system.
-Cortana which they will not use and probably slow their system

Or just buy the slightly more expensive i3 Asus PC below, but less warranty 1 year compared to 3. really like the 3 year warranty tho.

- For their normal office environment, I dont think they can not tell the difference between a Pentium G3240 vs i3-4160, I rather spend the money on an 120GB SSD instead and extended warranty instead.

- i will add another 4gb or 8gb RAM
- looks like a full tower easy customization CPU can be upgraded if needed later
- looks like an atx PSU with 250 watt
- i think i can get away by puting a GTX 750 ti with out changing PSU.
- BUT for the price of a 750ti I can get a R9 270 which has amazing value for money, but i will need to upgrade the PSU.

I think I can get away with 400W and save??
The PC with no graphics is not going to use more then 100W, r9 270 is not going to use more then 150W, total 250w max, is my assumption correct?

is it possible to fit in asus gts450 gpu?

currently i have 4 stick 2gb rams.

[Budget] 500 below (possible to get new ram??)

[Purpose] will use this as replacement with my current setup, i need abit compact, usange for torrenting, wathing movies, and sometimes playing dota 2.

[Hardwares that will be re-use] others beside mobo and cpu

[Monitor resolution] tv-1080p

Good day. Please recommend a build (CPU + monitor only) that can play DotA 2 at max settings with an average of 75fps at 1080p. Budget is approximately 4k inclusive of the monitor.

Additional requirements:
One SSD & one HDD for storage
Built in WiFi would be a plus. If that's too expensive, I can always get a USB dongle.
Don't include the case as I'll pick one myself as design is subjective.
Please quote an ITX build if possible, unless an ATX one is cheaper.
Screen size should be at least 23". Bigger is better, as long as I don't have to sacrifice too much on the response time etc.

Thanks in advance.

I need to buy 2 rigs, not 1
1x for office
1x for home/game

ITX rig is probably going to cost more. they dont mind a normal tower pc or mini tower size, as long as mobo are standard size and PSU are also standard size.

Hi guys. Need your help to recommend me to build a CPU that can play Dota 2 at decent 1080P quality. Budget approximately 1k++ only (ya I know it is quite a small budget) exclusive of the monitor.

[Budget] 1k++ (less if possible)

[Purpose] Mostly for light gaming approx. 30% of Dota 2. Some photo and video editing.

[Hardwares that will be re-use] 1TB WD Cavier Blue, Keyboard and Mouse, DVD-RW Writer.

[Monitor resolution]Acer K272HL 27" 1080P 60Hz 5ms LED Monitor DVI-D Monitor. Not HDMI capable. Already bought this monitor for RM685.

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Will use photoshop and some light gaming esp. Dota 2.

I think within this tight budget I can only get AMD APU series right? I might upgrade my CPU from time to time to more high end rig but maybe by usingAMD build not much that I can do. or any other recommendation? Thank you.
