Yes, but this side does not have a HDD bracket to hold the HDD in place. Do I need to superglue the bracket there then slot in the HDD?

Sorry if I am asking a stupid question bro...I am slowly learning how to build my first PC so please bear with me.

There are few screw mounting holes available for you to hold the HDD in place.

Ok cool cool! Thanks for the tutorial bro!

Guys, is it possible to build an i7-6700k rig (oc-able) within the price range of RM2500-RM2600?

Parts that i need:
i7-6700k
16gb ram
mobo, power supply, good casing and cooling stuffs(if needed, please advise)

re-use hardware: hard disk, gc (currently gtx950, but planning for gtx1080)

thanks in advance!

Not possible, i7 6700K would take more than half of your available budget already

Since I am currently building a PC, I wanna get a GPU for my friend along the way. He only plays Dota and watches movie via HDMI output connected to his LED TV. Which one is more suitable?

GTX 950 2GB
RX460 WINDFORCE OC 2GB

please recommend processor, ram, mobo and SSD. Budget under Rm1k , 1.2k max.

Usage : no gaming , only multimedia (music and movie) and office document works.

Either one will work fine in Dota 2.

Get whichever you find it is cheaper

Intel Core i3 6100
Gigabyte H110M-DS2/Asus H110M-K
Kingston/Corsair 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM
Kingston SSDNow UV400 120GB SSD

Total will be around 1k

Thanks for the reply. Can this system last me for 5 6 years, in term of performance ? I forget to mention that I do some lightroom, photoshop and video editing occasionally(once a month), personal use only. Would this i3 be sufficient for my usage? What is the minimum budget i have to top up if I want a i5 system(the type of best for bang) ? I need to see if I can fork out extra $$ and doesnt overkill for my usage.

thanks again

Hard to say it can last for 5 to 6 years, if you are able to tolerate with old hardware now (those with Core 2 Duo) then you can mostly do the same in the next 5 to 6 years when Skylake i3 has started to slow down.

i3 will work for those tasks mentioned but at slower pace, same theory as above again, if you have enough tolerance then it shouldn't bother you too much. Get i5 if you want to have a smoother operation.

i5 6402P is the cheapest Skylake i5 in the market currently and requires top up of nearly RM 300 (more or less). If you can fork out even more, get the 6500 instead, small top up from 6402P/6400 but gain a significant base clock boost (from 2.7 to 3.2).

Want to build using MSI Aegis.

I believe MSI Aegis comes with nothing? I cant find any reliable website with pricing, specs, etc.

I like the MSI Aegis because it is small and powerful.

[Budget] <RM10k

[Purpose] Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] All new

[Monitor resolution] Probably ultra wide 27" curved 144Hz

[Games & softwares that use frequently]

[Personal preferences] MSI Aegis + GTX1070/1080

Intel Core i3 6100 --> i5 6500

Thanks .
I decided to go with i5 6500. So the mobo no need to change right ? Since I only run one SSD , maybe a couple of HDD, without gaming , no need GPU also. For the mobo, Giga or Asus are the same ? Do they have pro and cons ?

btw, i3 6100 is the best i3 in term of price and performance ? asking on behalf of my friend

i3 6098P is the holding the best price/performance ratio but with weaker iGPU compared to i3 6100 (HD 510 vs HD 530), if you aren't doing any GPU demanding stuff or going for dedicated GPU then this shouldn't be a problem.

Different mobo model is having different onboard features, the two I recommended are using Skylake lowest end chipset (H110), they are cheap but come with all the basic necessities that are required to run a PC.

More expensive = more onboard features but before going deeper into that, you may have to ask yourself (or your friend), do I need those "fancy" or extra features provided? If don't need then no need to spend the extra

The AMD one cheaper and higher ranked.

Hi Sifu, I have some question.

1. Can GA-H110M-DS2 support Kingston/Corsair 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM ? I notice supported memory speed, DDR3/DDR3L 1600/1333 MHz memory modules , just checked on GA-H110M-DS2


2.

from the picture above, GA-H110M-DS2 does not seem to have DVI port ? I need either dvi or hdmi . Any idea which mobo fit my requirement ?

You need to look for DDR4 version, there are two models in Skylake generation because it is the cross over point for last gen DDR3 and latest gen DDR4 so some models will have 2 version with each supporting different RAM module.

H110M-DS2 (D4)

As for the display output port, you can either use a adapter (VGA to DVI) or swap to Asus H110M-K that I have recommended earlier.

Hi ,I can fork out a little more for mobo, is GA-B150M-D3H any good ? or you have a better idea in mind ?

Yup it's one of the best mobo priced under RM 400.

My friend needs a suggestion for rm2k rig. Will use for gaming and video editing including photoshop. Thanks!

did advice my friend about all these, he decided to go for a "bigger" upgrade to future proof abit and budget can go up till 2500.

Any recommendations for this budget? His power supply might be able to reuse if can support RX470/GTX1060, the model is CM RS460-PCAR-A3.

Proc: i5/Xeon
Mobo: u recommended a m-ATX mobo, is there any difference compared to other form factors?
Graphic: around 900-1k range
