H110 comes with 2 RAM slots only but for casual users, it should be enough, if you think it is ok for you then just pick H110 (save money).

Kingston SSD is ok, just need to avoid their lowest end series (V300) due to NAND issue.

Thanks again. I think I will pick H110.

Yea NAND issue. I know nothing about SSD chips but my friends are recommending me Samsung and Intel SSD. hmm.gif

btw, do you know any reliable USB 3 Extension tongue.gif tongue.gif My old CM690 dont have USB3.0 port.

You can go for Samsung 850 EVO then, or the lower end 750 EVO.

As for USB 3.0 PCI-E card, if you have budget then you can look for Silvestone (expensive) or Transcend (cheaper, around RM 50+).

Too risky to run R9 390 on an entry level PSU, you are advised to get a more decent and capable PSU to run it.

Intel Core i7 6700 - RM 1258
Gigabyte H170-D3HP - RM 562
Sapphire R9 390 8GB GDDR5 Nitro - RM 1549

Nvidia is expected to announce next gen GPU (Pascal) tonight at GTC 2016 so you might need to hold off from getting any new GPU now.

First, thank you for prompt info.

i5 is enough for the purpose?

As for the motherboard, Asrock vs Gigabyte vs Asus, which is better? Or they are the same?

8GB RAM is more than enough right?

You stated [Purpose] light gaming - such as Dota2, Csgo & use for work.

For Dota 2 and CS:GO, i5 is more than enough, you never describe what you gonna do for "work" so I assume it is just some basic stuffs and not related to any kind of serious rendering/editing nod.gif

ASRock, Asus, Gigabyte and MSI are all reputable mobo manufacturers, in theory they should have similar quality, but sometimes s*** happens laugh.gif Just pray you can get a defective free unit (most likely).

As for RAM, it is related to what you gonna do as well, Dota 2, CS:GO, basic stuffs etc., 8GB is enough.

Budget is too tight sweat.gif

If want to keep ~1k, drop the GPU.

If want to keep ~1.5k, downgrade the GPU to Sapphire R7 260X or switch to mATX build (mITX is expensive to build).

initially i thought a i5 was going to be better then i3 in gaming. fast dual vs slow quad core.
i3 fast 2c,4t vs slow i5 4c,4t

then i saw this site, they runing an GTX 980
http://www.hardwarecanucks.com/forum/hardw...-review-10.html

i3 6100 is truely amazing for gaming on a budget, not much difference with i3 vs i5,
my guess is people buying a i3 will not pair a gtx 980 more like a gtx 950/960 at this rate the i3 will be similar in performance as i7 in terms of current gaming

the sites also shows there is not much difference in i5 6400 vs 6500 in gaming too.

people can alwasy upgrade to i5 later in few years when games become more multi threaded and dx 12.
*
So you're saying I should go for the i3-6100? Is it cheaper anyway? And how do I know which games use single, double or qual core??? I'm sorry I'm noob at this stuff.
