Your pendrive is plugged into USB 2.0 or 3.0 port?

If 3.0 then please try to use 2.0 instead.

They all fall in different tier so you cannot compare them directly.

CM V series is the highest end series in CM PSU line up, it uses high quality Japanese capacitors while Corsair CS series is one of the low end series with 80+ Gold rating (rare case), the internal components are found to be mixed with Japanese and Taiwanese parts, the price of this PSU is expensive (overpriced), if you were to choose this PSU, I will suggest you to go for Bronze rated Seasonic M12II EVO/S12II series instead.

FSP Hexa+ is considered one of the best low end PSU (below RM 200 mark). It doesn't have the best internal components but the price is very worth considering it is from the popular FSP OEM.

As for current stability, review etc, you can find more info online.

oh thanks
I though the CM V stands for Value.

ok i think its just 2 options for me, either FSP hexa, next up would be Seasonic S12II
what about somewhere in between like their FSP Hyper seriers?
Dont think ive seen anyone recommend it before?

Alright usually if you use 3.0 then switch to 2.0 will work but not in your case so maybe try to redownload the ISO and create the bootable drive using either the media installer creator or Rufus, this is suggested by Microsoft on their support KB article.

And make sure your BIOS is up to date.

FSP Hyper series is fine as well, better than the same priced CM B series and Thunder M series, but price is quite close to Seasonic S12II so normally I will top up a bit and go for it instead.

X and G series is made up by Seasonic itself.

Part of the CM V series (850, 1000 etc.) is from Seasonic, some are from Enchance Electronics, lower end models are from CWT and Seventeam.

Asus H110M-K - RM 273
Corsair 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 133
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 215
FSP Hexa+ 400W - RM 145
Bitfenix Nova - RM 149

Total: RM 2173 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

Optional upgrade:
1. Kingston HyperX Fury 120GB SSD - RM 195
2. Another 8GB RAM

Okie. A little update. I've used the same method and burn the iso file into the dvd using the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool.

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/wi...d-download-tool

I've got the following error code. 0x80070570. I am going to redownload the ISO file. Might have been corrupted. sweat.gif

You can check the MD5/SHA code to ensure the downloaded ISO file is valid nod.gif

I am going to build my second PC rig for mainly-photography/video editing/rendering and 2nd gaming (rise of tomb raider) purpose by next month or two.

I am in dilemma between i7 5820k vs i7 6700k. Could anyone advise is there any difference in real world for 6core vs 4core processor?

Motherboard no idea. Might do light over clock(1 button over clock)
My ram is either 2 x 8gb Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000mhz or 2 x 8gb G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4
PSU -thinking of EVGA 750 G2 or any alternative suggestion? I prefer full modular PSU.
GPU would be gtx 1070 or 1080 depending on their price
CPU cooler should be Phanteks PH-TC14PE (or any other suggestions?)
Casing should be either Phanteks Enthoo pro or Phanteks Enthoo pro m. (Can it fit my gear?)
I would use existing ssd and hard-disk.

Did I miss anything and is there any better suggestion for my rig?

Is it this software that you're referring?

Updated:
I check via the software above and everything matched.

In addition, tried looking at youtube for the Error code: 0x80070570, did a quick removal and installation of the RAM but to no avail.

So what would be problems behind? cry.gif

Video rendering does benefit from hexa core CPU, go for it if you can afford it, as for daily and gaming usage, quad core is more than enough. By the time (in 2 months time) you are ready to buy the rig, Intel Broadwell-E should have been released.

I don't think EVGA PSU is officially available in Malaysia unless you import from overseas which I don't recommend you to do so.

Are you using AMD FreeSync compatible GPU? If yes then the additional FreeSync feature will benefit you.
