Hey guys my budget is RM750 and i will be using it mainly to play latest game on 1080p like The Witcher 3. I already bought Core i5-4690k and Sapphire R9 380.
Also if you can recommend me a good monitor with at least 21 inch and above for the price of below 500 I will be very grateful.

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Apr 17 2016, 06:53 PM) So RM 750 for the rest of the parts (excluding CPU & GPU)? Is monitor included in this budget, or you have allocated RM 500 for it? 750 is for other parts and another 500 is for the monitor only. Also can u give me the possible parts that support oc-ing. I can add another few hundred if I had to.

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Apr 17 2016, 09:19 PM) RM 750 budget is not enough to get a Z87/Z97 for oc (and other parts), unless you go for H81/B85 "non-official" oc. If you are still on your oc plan, you will need a Z87/Z97 mobo + 8GB RAM + 1TB SSD + a capable PSU + case, the estimated cost is more than 1k. It is still possible to get it under 1k right if I use HDD ? Since 1tb ssd price is absurd. Can you just give me the recommendation even if its still above 1k ?

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Apr 17 2016, 10:04 PM) Typo there, it's HDD, not SSDĀ ASRock Z97 Anniversary - RM 419 Kingston 8GB DDR3 1600MHz Value RAM - RM 149 WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 215 Seasonic S12II 620W - RM 303 Bitfenix Nova - RM 149 Total: RM 1235 (ETech price inclusive of GST) BenQ GW2270 - RM 429 Is the stock cooler enough to handle the heat when I oc? Can you recommend a good budget cooler for later add-on when I got extra money. Also is it true that 4GB x 2 is better than the 8GB alone for the memory?

QUOTE(terence_nwb @ Apr 18 2016, 07:40 AM) Mild overclock is fine but due to hot weather, stock cooler might not make it, overclock doesn't bring a lot of performance improvement in gaming though FYI. You can look for something like CM Hyper 212X/EVO. Dual channel is slightly faster but not noticeable in real life usage, single stick is cheaper too, so just get 1 x 8GB. If that's so, im thinking of maybe add case fan only. Any recommendation ? Since Bitfenix Nova only got 1 stock fan and I dont think that would be enough. Anyhow thanks for your recommendation. Its pretty dope man.
