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

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.

Leadtek GTX650Ti BOOST 2GD5 O.C.

If that's the case, maybe i5 will do. Would prefer to have a more long lasting proc as I don't want to spend so much on upgrading.

I have this issue right now, where my PC shut down itself after 1-2 seconds I turn on. And it keeps on repeat the on off until I switch off the power plug.

I would need a new PSU, ram ddr4 if possible, new MOBO, and new casing (Prefer small and lightweight).

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
CM Elite Power 350W - RM 126
Armageddon T1x - RM 95

Total: RM 1330 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

Can add a 120GB SSD if needed.
You can consider getting a mITX rig if you prefer small, compact and light weight PC.

Intel Core i5 6500 - RM 835
Gigabyte H170N-WiFi - RM 516
Kingston 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 147
Superflower Leadex Silver 550W - RM 349
CM Elite 130 - RM 178

Total: RM 2025 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

Thank you for the suggestion. Is Superflower PSU reliable? I am worried that it might not be as good as cooler master. Also, any alternative options for the mobo?

Many thanks! notworthy.gif

Much better than CM PSU, in fact the CM V series PSU is the only PSU that you should consider when you want to pick CM, other CM models are just so-so (mixed Chinese and Taiwanese caps).

Some of the mITX mobo that are available in Malaysia:

Asus H110i-PLUS
ASRock H110M-ITX
ASRock H170M-ITX/ac
MSI H110I PRO AC
MSI B150I Gaming Pro

Price for mobo you mentioned is not that expensive right? All also be used for gaming and illustrator editing?
