AMD current CPU lineup is very old already, it is not worth to spend your money on it, better wait for Zen (upcoming AM4) platform which is expected to arrive in the next couple of months.

Yes still need few months... damn. I shall wait if i want AMD then.. sad

If you run triple A titles on 1440p max settings, then GTX1070 and above is more preferred. Palit GPU is ok, price is cheap but not as premium as other brands like Asus, Gigabyte, MSI etc. You need to fork out extra few hundreds for those brands and in return, you get little to zero performance improvement (in terms of FPS) which is not budget friendly at all.

Alternative build would be a locked i7 rig which provides extra threads compared to 6600K.

If your ambient temperature is high and you do a lot of heavy OC, I suggest you to get a better cooler, same goes to RAM, get a high speed RAM when you have a Z170 mobo, Skylake CPU does benefit from high speed RAM.

I don't think you will need to overclock with a cpu that powerful. Plus 16gb ram is better for the newer games (better safe than sorry)

INTEL CORE I5 6600  -RM 949
Use the stock heatsink    -rm0
ASROCK Z170 Pro 4  -RM 548
16GB value ram DDR4 2133mhz -RM 299
PALIT GTX 1070 GameRock -RM 2099
Seasonic S12II-620 EVO -RM 299
Sharkoon DG7000 (RED) -RM 269
SAMSUNG 750 EVO 120GB -RM 229
WD 2TB Caviar Blue  -RM299

Total RM4991

With this,you should only need to upgrade the graphic card every two years (if you are planning to stay in 2k resolution) and psu every 4 years (just in case for bigger,hungrier graphic cards of the future)

I'll bet the cpu can stay strong for 4 years.

Alo!

Can anyone quote me a rig upgrade for RM2k?

What I only need:

CPU (not planning to OC), Mobo, RAM and a bit for casing if possible
Rest of the hardware salvaging from old rig (hdd,psu n gpu)

Usage: Gaming & Photo rendering.

Thanks.

Hi all, this is a build I'm planning for a small corner of my study desk. I'm building this with the challenge to put air-cooling into a Corsair 250D.

Usage: Steam (AAA titles), Movies, Surfing, Music
Overclocking: No
Preferences: Casing must be 250D, must be air-cooling

Not too worried about the price since I'll be hunting after that. Rather I would appreciate feedback if I've overlooked any parts that are clearly bottlenecking/incompatible:

PSU M12II-520 EVO
Casing Obsidian Series™ 250D Mini ITX PC Case, front fan replace with Spectre Black 200mm
Processor I7 6700
HSF Hyper 103 - Can fit in after i remove the ODD bracket from the 250D
Mobo MSI B150I GAMING PRO AC - WIFI/BT4.0 included
RAM HyperX Fury DDR4 8GB 2133Mhz x 2
GPU PALIT GeForce® GTX 1070 Dual Fan
SSD Sandisk Ultra II - 480Gb

I realise that MSI-B150i comes with either AC or not (the wifi+BT module). Will it be better for me to opt for the AC, or just seperately get a USB dongle for the purpose?

I'll worry about the KB+M, monitor and speakers later on.

Since you didn't mention your case form factor and PSU length so I am going to reuse the current case and assume your case is ATX form factor which supports ATX mobo.

Intel Core i7 6700 - RM 1305
Gigabyte H170-HD3 (D4) - RM 446
Kingston 16GB (8GB x 2) DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 290

I will go for on-board WiFi card instead of dongle anytime now, cheap dongle overheats too fast and might face frequent disconnection when it is hot, speaking from my own experience sweat.gif

Good day guys!

I'm looking to rebuild my rig since this one is dying off slowly. Prep RM2000 for whole CPU.

Parts I don't need to rebuild: DVD room, HDD, GC

Usage: Illustrator, gaming, youtube, watch movie.

Prefer: High power PSU as I am planning to plug in 2TB. Looking for i7 build. i5 is budget is too constrain.

Remark: I am in dilemma to whether reuse my CM690. It's bulky for mid tower and I am looking for other alternative; something small and lightweight. laugh.gif

Hi I need FIVE computers for my office and I have gotten the below quotation:-

Type A (RM1,330.00)

HP Pavillion 251-A150D Desktop PC; P/N N4R23AA
- intel pentium J2900 2.41 ghz processor
-2gb ddr3- 1600mhz ram
- 500gb sata harddisk
- ultra slim tray super multi dvdrw ODD
- hp 7 in 1 card reader
- on board ethernet support
- hp wlan 802.11 mini card
- Windows 10
- HP keyboard and mouse

Type B (RM1,200.00)

Clone system
- intel pentium G4400 2.7ghz processor
- asus intel H110M- D3 w/vga/snd/lan/matx motherboard
- kingston 4gb ddr3 1600 mhz ram
- 500gb sata 7200rpm hard disk

My budget is around RM1,300 for the CPU, need something more future-proof too, can include SSD ? DDR4 rams necessary ? Which one to pick ? Need to modify any of the above specs ?


Any suggestions would be helpful, Thanks!

i7 6700 costs 1.3k and you left 700 for the rest of the part only, so i5 is more budget friendly in your case.

What's your current GPU model?

2TB HDD doesn't require super high power PSU, just treat it as normal HDD.

First option is out if your workload consists of excel/word/PPT processing, J2900 is weak and the 2GB RAM can barely do anything now.

The second option is better with latest Skylake Pentium CPU but you need to get Windows license key separately as it is a custom build PC.

Intel Core i3 6100 - RM 479
Asus H110M-K - RM 274
Kingston 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 147
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 209
Cheap OEM case + PSU ~ RM 100
Logitech MK200 Wired Combo - RM 65

Total: RM 1274 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

If you want a 120GB SSD to be included, you can either downgrade the i3 to Pentium or 8GB to 4GB RAM, top up a bit if necessary.
