Hi, I need some suggestion for my gaming rig, mainly use for watching movies and dota 2. All prices below from thundermatch as it is nearest my hometown, so I can just go there in case anything happen in future. I think idealtech is good but I worry pc hardware might damage during delivery.

i5 6500 - RM 919 / i5 4690 - RM 845 / i5 4460 - RM 786

MSI nVidia Geforce GTX970 OC 4GB GDDR5 - RM 1479 or other graphic card like gtx960,960 or gtx750 gives better performance price ratio?

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Oct 7 2015, 06:12 PM) Alright I will just create a build with i5 + GTX970 which is good enough for 1080p gaming. And due to limited products range by Thundermatch, there is no cheap DDR4 based B150/H170 mobo to pick so I will just use Haswell instead because there are reports saying DDR3 on Skylake mobo will cause damage to memory controller after long time of use. Intel Core i5 4460 - RM 788 MSI B85M-E45 - RM 313 Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Value RAM - RM 198 Kingston HyperX Fury 120GB SSD - RM 259 WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 229 MSI Tiger GTX970 4GB GDDR5 OC - RM 1590 Corsair VS550 - RM 219 Asus SATA ODD - RM 69 Thermaltake Versa H25 - RM 139 Dell S2340L IPS - RM 656 Total: RM 4460 (Thundermatch price inclusive of GST) Thank you so much! Btw, is it better to use i5 4690 with extra rm60? Will performance improve a lot? Also, is it better use better psu with extra rm40? Corsair VS650W Modules Power Supply. Are there any better monitor 24" inches with similar price? |

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Oct 7 2015, 06:54 PM) Didn't notice the price difference is just RM 60 because other shops are selling roughly RM 100 higher. You can go for that but speed is mostly depend on the app usage, normally 3.0GHz is enough for gaming nowadays unless you do rendering work which benefits from higher speed. Same goes to PSU, RM 40 is OK for 100W for me too. As for monitor, S2340L is the best you can get with RM 600 range but please take note the screen is glossy finish, meaning you can see reflection when you are under bright light source. Thanks again. Appreciated it. How about motherboard, is it better to use Msi z97 at RM 399? |

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Oct 7 2015, 08:08 PM) Oh, not the real Thundermatch it seems, just a subsidiary of it. But anyway, you are using a locked CPU so getting a Z97 board might be a bit useless though, but you do get full size ATX board and more PCI-E slots so you make your own choice here  Thanks, I will stick with msi b85  |
