Hello everyone. I would like a suggestion for a high-end desktop. This will be used for gaming as well as game development (UE4) (this requires a powerful CPU as well as huge amounts of RAM). I am aiming for GTX1080 so the purchase will be next month or whenever it becomes available locally (I am in no hurry for it). Please do provide me with a suggestion to complement the GTX1080.

Since no budget stated so I will just go with the highest spec.

Intel Core i7 6700 - RM 1254
Gigabyte H170-HD3 (D4) - RM 446
Corsair 16GB (8GB x 2) DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 266
GTX1080 - RM 3000 (Estimated)
Kingston HyperX Fury 240GB SSD - RM 305
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 215
Seasonic M12II EVO 620W - RM 363
Tecware Alpha - RM 189

Total: RM 6038 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

This is a non-OC build, to switch to OC build, you need to add at least 1k.

Monitor and other peripherals aren't included too, not sure if you need them or not.

I don't have a budget per-se although I do not want to go crazy with it. If anything I would change, I would drop the HDD as I have more than enough HDD right now and bump the RAM to 32GB (16GB is the minimum if you want to do some serious game development). Monitor and other peripherals aren't required as well.

As this is also a 'work' mahcine, no OC. Stability is highly required.

One more thing I would like to ask is, I know its not out yet, but what brand of GC you generally recommend?

It depends on your budget, if money/price is a concern then choose Zotac, usually Zotac is cheaper than the other big 4 (Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, EVGA) and they provide 5 years warranty as well.

If you are going for aesthetic purpose, then you might be interested in the upcoming non-reference card by the big 4 (Asus Strix, MSI Twin Forzr, Gigabyte Xtreme etc).

I see, thanks mate. This should be enough to get me going. notworthy.gif
