If you don't mind the graphics settings that you can run in games, then you can ditch the GTX1050 and use the iGPU for gaming (save cost). To fit a 120GB SSD, you have to top up your budget or downgrade the i5 to i3 (or wait for AMD Ryzen and see if they are able to offer a faster CPU at lower price or not).

Intel Core i5 7400 - RM 870
Asus H110M-K - RM 271
Corsair 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 255
Zotac GTX1050 2GB GDDR5 Mini - RM 589
Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD - RM 219
Corsair VS450 - RM 184
Tecware Edge - RM 149

Total: RM 2537 (Techview price inclusive of GST)

Optional upgrade:
1. Kingston SSDNow UV400 120GB SSD - RM 219

* BIOS update is required to run Kaby Lake CPU on a mobo with older chipset.

In the case of the FSP Hexa, the 550W version costs RM229 compared to RM199 for 450W. You decide.

You can refer to the build above (the one with AutoCAD), it will be almost similar unless your friend is planning to get workstation card, GTX1060 is faster than any of the low end Quadro/FirePro card currently, if you friend really want to go for workstation card, it is advised to get those with at least 2k price tag one (like M2000 or wait for Pascal based Quadro card to reach Malaysia first).

As for the monitor, there is ~1k left for it, so it is pretty much up to your friend whether to go "all-in" with 27" IPS 1080p or save the money by choosing a lower end model (24" TN/VA 1080p).

I checked the price of 7910, it starts from $2099, so I think this is already out of your choice right?

Then moving to T5810, there are few configurations found online, price starts from $1199, the specs are nowhere near the specs of a custom rig, I definitely won't fall for it, even with the excellent after sales services from Dell laugh.gif

$1199 = ~RM 5400

CPU: Xeon E5-1603 v3 2.8GHz (4C4T) vs i7 7700 4.2GHz (4C8T)
RAM: 8GB 2400MHz ECC RAM vs 16GB 2400MHz NON-ECC RAM
GPU: Nvidia NVS 310 1GB vs Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB

Well, custom rig is a no brainer choice biggrin.gif

Terence i want to ask. Do u think 1080p on 27inch ips is too big? Because from what i do research on tnet, majority said 27inch is too big and 24 is the max. What do u think??

You can game on Quadro or FirePro card but they are much slower in games.

In terms of theoretical performance, the Quadro M2000 (around 1812 GFLOPS) should be slightly faster than GTX1050 (around 1733 GFLOPS on stock speed), but M2000 costs 2.3k while the GTX1050 only costs under 600, you can see the ratio is not balance at all, that's why workstation card is normally interpreted as a non gaming card.

You may check the in-game FPS between a Quadro card and GTX card online to understand the real world difference.

For me, the max size for 1080p is 24", I will go for 1440p if I were to choose a 27" monitor.

Based from the preview and demo, the new lineup seems promising. Might as well wait and see the real world benchmarks and tests from tech enthusiasts.

Thanks for the help guys. I think I'll wait till next month and see if the AMD Ryzen will be faster for the price.

Btw I'm going to use a 50" TV that's 1080p for this setup. Does it change the PC requirements?
