May i ask what the pros and cons between AMD R9 and Nvidia GTX?
If I want dual screen and gaming keyboard like razer blackwidow X ultimate, what should I cut?

R9 390 vs GTX970

It is 8GB VRAM on R9 390 and is having more raw performance but power consumption is higher than GTX970.

To include another another monitor and expensive peripherals, you can downgrade the CPU to i5, change to cheaper mobo, drop SSD etc.

Intel Core i5 6400 - RM 773
Gigabyte B150M-D3H (D4) - RM 403
Corsair 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 148
Zotac GTX970 4GB GDDR5 Reference - RM 1397
Kingston HyperX Fury 120GB SSD - RM 209
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 215
FSP Hexa+ 550W - RM 188
Tecware Alpha Black - RM 219
BenQ GL2460 x 2 - RM 1020
Razer BlackWidow X Ultimate - RM 429

Total: RM 5001 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

Due to budget issue, I have to switch to GTX970 so I can downgrade to lower grade PSU.

Thin bezel monitor is more suitable for dual/triple monitors setup, you can consider getting a Dell UltraSharp (super thin bezel IPS panel) monitor first and add another one later when you have more budget.

can a Corsair RM650 support a Sapphire R9 390?

A lot of online review stated recommendation should be above 700...

Can

Ah.

Radeon R9 390 does not support VR?

I see only Nvidia being listed as Occulus compatible?

It is supported, R9 290 and above.

Helping friend, he actually bought some of the parts at kuching, but too expensive, sifu please help to settle the remaining parts

[Budget] RM3000

[Purpose] Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] I already bought corsair vs650, h170A gaming msi, ddr4 kingston and casing

[Monitor resolution] 1080p

[Games & softwares that use frequently] The Witcher 3, FarCry Primal, Dota 2

[Personal preferences] SSD and processor i5 and above, GTX 960 above ( i heard promotion now, gtx960 and above can claimed rm 100 steam wallet )

[Location]Sarawak ( will order from peninsular )

So, wit green camp or go red?

I'm using a Silverstone 650W PSU, so R9 should not be a problem....

It is limited to selected Gigabyte model only AFAIK, the price of Gigabyte card is very expensive which makes the deal not worth even with free RM 100 Steam Wallet, I suggest you to wait for next gen GPU instead if you are going to spend 1.8k just for a GTX970.

Intel Core i5 6400 - RM 773
Kingston HyperX Fury 120GB SSD - RM 209
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 215
Gigabyte GTX970 4GB GDDR5 Xtreme Gaming - RM 1779

Red camp is also going to announce their upcoming Polaris GPU soon, just hold for awhile

Hi guys. I would like to build my first ever budget gaming rig that can handle mid - high end graphic demanding games. If it's possible I would like to have a 120hertz monitor, but I don't think it will fit into the price range. If so, then recommend me something that is 1080p or 1440p that are bang for my bucks. I only demand for smooth 60fps on any games that i will list below. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

[Budget] RM2.8k - RM3.5k ( less is better )

[Purpose] Moderate gaming, extensive use of youtube and movies

[Hardwares that will be re-use] Keyboard, mouse

[Monitor Resolution] 1080p/1440p ( depend on my budget )

[Games and softwares that use frequently] Rocket League, H1Z1 ( high or ultra settings at 60fps if possible ), Tomb Raider, Hitman:Absolution, War Thunder, GTA V, Words/Powerpoint

[Personal Preferences] 120hertz monitor if possible, 1080p resolution is minimum, R9 390 or Gtx 970? And which is better? i5 is a must over i3.

[Location] KL

That's all for my requirements. I hope money won't limit your suggestion for better performance as I'm a newbie to all this IT stuff. Thanks

You might be a little bit too ambitious on your available budget

Intel Core i5 6400 - RM 773
Gigabyte H110M-DS2 (D4) - RM 289
Corsair 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 148
Zotac GTX970 4GB GDDR5 Reference - RM 1397
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 215
FSP Hexa+ 550W - RM 188
Bifenix Nova - RM 149
BenQ GW2270 - RM 429

Total: RM 3588 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

R9 390 is slightly better but your budget cannot fit it, even if you top up a little bit for it, you still need to change to a more decent PSU due to its higher power consumption status, which requires even more top up.

1080p 120/144Hz monitor is > 1.1k, prepare more money if you want to jump ship to it, same goes to 1440p which is even more expensive than 1080p 120/144Hz.

iching to get a powercolor r9 270 for rm 530....or wait?waited so loong liao no news pun.......btw not earger to game ..just thought it was a good deal..but usd 100 y after convert is rm 530 ?....
