QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Dec 18 2015, 11:50 AM) i3 is more than enough for Dota 2. other part remain the same if i go for i5?Below is one of the cheapest paths to get Skylake i3 + DDR4 RAM to run Dota 2 at max settings stable 60 FPS. Intel Core i3 6100 - RM 510 MSI H110M Pro-VH - RM 329 Corsair 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 200 PowerColor R9 270 2GB GDDR5 TurboDuo - RM 529 WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 215 FSP Hexa+ 550W - RM 189 Thermaltake Versa H25 - RM 139 Total: RM 2111 (Techview price inclusive of GST) The iGPU (HD 530) of Skylake is just slightly slower than R7 250 (GDDR5 ver) which is able to push out almost 60 FPS in 1080p max settings (except heavy team fight), so I guess you can live with iGPU if you want i5 for now.  |

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Dec 30 2015, 11:43 PM) The mobo you choose only got 2 RAM slots, if you can, switch to MSI B150M Bazooka D4 or Gigabyte B150M D3H, both 4 slots and price is around the same. asrock around rm350.msi cost me 400++ at my area. im ok with 2 ram slot. |
