since we are on topics of monitors would like to ask terence sifu would you suggest the Acer Predator XB271HU or the Dell 27 Monitor S2716DG or any other suggestions would be great

It's the similar question again, response time and the respective panel type, no doubt that XB271HU is one of the most popular GSync monitors here thanks to its sleek design and IPS panel, S2716DG introduction price was very close to 3k initially before it got slashed to 2.6k now so XB271HU is a no brainer choice before this.

But yea if GSync is a must for you then you will have to ask yourself 2 questions, budget and panel type, if you aren't limited by the budget and would like to have a better color reproduction then XB271HU is the only choice (of course you can opt for the equivalent Asus PG279Q but that will cost you 4k). Bear in mind this is just a 1440p 16:9 GSync comparison, other resolutions and aspect ratio aren't included yet.

Which one is more best price/performance ratio between GTX1050Ti 4GB vs GTX1050 2GB?

Cant afford 1060 3GB

Upgrading to GTX1080 but stick with a 1080p 60Hz monitor? It seems a bit overkill to me, better go for monitor upgrade to fully unleash the power of GTX1070.

Your budget can fit GTX1800, but if you want an overclockable CPU setup then you have to downgrade to GTX1070.

You can save money by going for casing + PSU combo, I am not sure about the price but it should be cheaper than getting them separately, then you can upgrade the RAM to 8GB.

And if wanna cut budget to RM800?

You can do the same thing (get the casing + PSU combo) and get a 500GB HDD instead of 1TB HDD (500GB HDD will be slightly slower than 1TB due to lower RPM).

HDD 7200 v 5400 should be same same gua...

Buy 2TB Blue also 5400 nia...

Looking to get a PC mainly for gaming purposes

[Budget] 3.5k

[Purpose]Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] Just keyboard and mouse

Total newb in these kind of things. Can anyone recommend a good rig?

Quite a significant difference if you transfer a lot of data in between disk drives, you will be grateful how much time you have saved from a 7200 RPM drive

For > 2TB storage HDD, please get Seagate Barracuda instead of WD Blue (7200 vs 5400 at almost same price).

Best price/performance ratio rig, if you prefer to have SSD and not so picky on the graphics settings that you can run, then you can consider tweaking the build.

Thanks for your reply
Not so picky about maxing the graphics. Will it run fine if I replace the 1060 with a 1050ti?

Yes, it will run fine but will lower graphics settings and frame rate.
