Looking for pure gaming rig, will be getting one next week or end of month. Budget: RM2k-2.5k Hardware reused: Dell U2414H, Palit GTX1070, HDD 1TB Exclude monitor, graphic card, harddisk and every other accessories from the budget. Only rig needed and prefer casing that can fit the big ass Palit card. I don't plan to OC right now and budget can be slightly strecth out from 2.5k zone if the top-up brings significant performance.

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Jul 20 2016, 11:15 PM) Well everyone here starts from zero initially, if you have extra budget and keen to learn, go ahead, there must be a start, if not we never learn new thingsĀ Intel Core i7 6700 - RM 1284 Gigabyte H170-HD3 (D4) - RM 446 Corsair 16GB (8GB x 2) DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 250 Seasonic M12II EVO 620W - RM 363 Tecware Alpha - RM 199 Total: RM 2542 (ETech price inclusive of GST) Thanks for the recommendation. I might add Kingston HyperX 240GB SSD on top of this. Is Zotac/PNY SSD a good choice as well?. Any room to improve more if i increase the budget to 3k?

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Jul 20 2016, 11:59 PM) Pretty solid choice for mid end SSD, the acceptable price range for mid end 240GB SSD is around RM 280 - RM 380 currently. Anything beyond that price range is considered as premium and we have to dig into the reviews deeply to find out if it worth our money or not. Edit: Adding RM 500 extra into your budget can grant you a 240GB SSD and a better casing. The chosen CPU platform is the top notch one already for non-OC build so no more upgrade room for it. Alright thanks! I'll settle with the recommendation list above and head over to E-Tech probably by next week

Apart from changing the proc to 6700k and mobo to Z170, mayb a hydro cooler anything else to add?

Any good substitute for Seasonic Evo M12II as Etech ran out of stock. What about FSP Aurum 600W Plus Gold?
