Okay thanks. Just afraid that it might not be enough to keep the CPU cool.

If i have a mobo
ASROCK H81M
Can i combine 2 different types of ram voltage?
eg
1x 4gb 1.35V
1x 4gb/8GB 1.5V
different brand, different cl10 and cl11

Same mobo may tolerate it, some will have to undervolt to work, some won't work at all.

The best would be buying the exact same model of RAM.

Many thanks to terence_nwb for suggestion in V10 thread.

completed change my rig to ITX form-factor with components below

New:
Intel i3-4160
Asrock B5M-ITX
2x4gb RAM KVN16N11S8/4

Secondhand:
Fractal design node 304

Others reuse
Asus GTS450
Silverstone ST50F-ESB
Liteon SSD 120gb
Seagate 2TB


BUT........ I think need to upgrade PSU aswell because with current PSU, its very hard to do cable management with that small size casing

change to full modular PSU might solve this?

Can recommend cheapest possible within 400 budget?

Congrats on your new build, RM 400 can get Seasonic M12II EVO 520W or 620W (more upgrade room).

It is PITA to do cable management with non-modular PSU in ITX build

Thanks again

ill check it out

YES! it is

thx bro for the heads up, appreciate it.
just wonder does this motherboard supports wifi since ill be using wifi instead of cable.

forget to mention earlier, i have a 120gb SSD that will be install with the system too.

thx

Just get a WiFi adapter to connect to WiFi.

TP-LINK TL-WN881ND, around RM 60.

Hi Terrance thank you for yourr recommendation

Is the processor enough? Should I go for xeon? Also the ram is high performance?

Thanks

Hello

[Budget] Around RM5-6K

[Purpose] Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] none

[Personal preferences] GTX 980

[Location] Selangor

possible to build a rig with gtx 980 with this budget ?

I tried to use Xeon and high speed RAM but your budget is holding back you from getting them

Terrence Pls share your best rig.. Budget is 10k now I am also looking at 980ti but not sure if it'll help as I am not into gaming but i want the best card to support 4k down the road in 3 years

Most important is when i open say photoshop, dreamweaver, visual studio, evernote, multiple excels and words.. many chrome tabs.. it wont lag.. no lag at all is most important.

I run ocassionally four windows with 10-20 chrome tabs open.

Please suggest.

TBH GTX980 isn't worth to get anymore with its current market price, better top up a bit for GTX980Ti or swap to the stronger R9 390X/Fury.

Gigabyte H170-HD3 (D4) - RM 486

2. Palit GTX980Ti 6GB GDDR5 Super Jetstream - RM 3109 (Require top up)

Terence, i plan to go for i7-5930k with X99 baord.,. thoughts?

Not all software will use GPU as hardware accelerator FYI, some of them use GPU VRAM to store image/video data while some of them don't use at all during rendering.

The difference between 5820K and 5930K is just the max PCI-E lanes supported increased to 40 in 5930K which is required for 3/4-way SLI/CF setup (or when you need more PCI-E x16/x8 slots), this is not useful in your case, you can also overclock the 5820K to match what 5930K is offering manually, they both are hexa core CPU.

Intel Core i7 5820K - RM 1680
MSI X99A Raider - RM 940

What you could do is get the rest of the components which your budgets allows and use the processors iGPU for the time being as the next generation of cards will be dropping sometime soon in about 4 months based on speculation. That way you won't be salty when you realise a new card has been released in the same price bracket performs if not better.
