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)
