Nope just desktop

Assuming your monitor resolution is 1080p.

Intel Core i5 6402P - RM 773
Asus H110M-K - RM 274
Corsair 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 130
Palit GTX950 2GB GDDR5 StormX - RM 609
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 209
FSP Hexa+ 450W - RM 166
Tecware F3 - RM 119

Total: RM 2280 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

Budget: RM3,000

Purpose: Light gaming (Dota2), google chrome, video streaming

Hardwares that will be re-use: None

Monitor resolution: To update again after I got home, I forgot lol

Games & softwares that use frequently: Dota2, Microsoft Office, Google Chrome

Personal preferences: Casing to be Coolmaster Elite 130

Location PJ/Kepong

Plan to get:-
Intel Core i7 6700
Asus H170 PRO
Kingston DDR4 2133 16GB(8GB*2)
FSP Hexa+ 550w
Bitfenix Nova


Use back:-
Hard disk x2
Palit GTX950 StormX Dual
DVD Writer


My question is, Asus H170 PRO is it enough for Intel i7 CPU? Will it bottleneck the processor performance?
Since I got GPU, can I use Xeon processor to replace the i7 6700? XEON E3 1220 V5 is selling for RM899.
Or XEON E3 1220 V5 performance only can compare with i5 6600?

No mobo will bottleneck the locked i7, even with the cheapest H110 mobo, you just get more on-board features with better chipset.

Skylake Xeon only usable on C232 chipset mobo, it doesn't work on normal consumer grade mobo anymore.

If you are going for Xeon path, you need to look for Xeon E3 1230 V5 instead of Xeon E3 1220 V5, the latter CPU is 4C4T which is basically an i5 (between i5 6400 and i5 6500), 1230 V5 is 4C8T and is competing directly with i7 6700.

Without what?

Hi..can anyone suggest me a PC for engineering simulation. As powerful as possible with budget 5-7k. Can put more budget if really needed. Multitasking also.

Intel Core i7
Cooler
Highest RAM?
Mobo?
Nvidia GC around 1k (if not bottleneck)
2 TB Hdisk
Power supply
Casing
Auto backup external hdisk
Monitor 23"

TQ

If you are rich means, go for 1070. That seems like an overkill build.

You can safely save RM1k.

Buy an i5 6600 processor, non K version. Use the stock cooler.

Get a 600W Bronze PSU.

Get a cheaper case.

Get a cheaper motherboard.

Only sensible thing in your build is a GTX 1060. I have a GTX 960 running in a 4 year old Dell PC, now going to buy GTX 1060. I just feel you pay too much for no reason. GTX 1060 is extremely power efficient, won't cause worry to your motherboard at all.

Thanks bro..

It depends on whether you want to get an overclockable rig (more powerful with overclockable CPU but subject to stability issue) or non-overclockable rig (more stable but slightly less powerful than overclocked CPU).

Thanks alot man

Typo in the initial build list, removed the K from the CPU model.

[Budget] rm3000

[Purpose] lots of gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] keyboard, mouse, headset

[Monitor resolution] 1080p 144hz

[Games & softwares that use frequently] dota, overwatch, starcraft

[Personal preferences] no windows 8.1/10 please

[Location] Batu Muda, KL

thanks in advance

Thank you for the suggestion sir!

So the 1080p 144Hz monitor is included in your 3k budget?

If yes then you need to sacrifice a lot on the rig components because 144Hz monitor isn't cheap (cheapest is around 1k).

woops my mistake dont need 144hz necessarily lol

So a normal 1080p 60Hz TN/VA will do right?

Intel Core i5 6402P - RM 773

If you need SSD, swap the GPU to 2GB model so you can add in a 120GB SSD.

If you don't need monitor then you can upgrade the GPU to RX480/GTX1060.
