[B][Budget] RM4-5K including monitor

[Purpose] Gaming (specifically for the game Cossacks 3 which releases today)

[Hardwares that will be re-use]None

[Monitor resolution] 1920x1080

[Location] KL. Planning to get full set from Idealtech for convenience sake.

Just need to recommendations on some specific parts such as on the CPU, Mobo, CPU Cooler whether necessary, GPU

CPU: i5 Skylake
CPU Cooler: Necessary?
Mobo: Please recommend, cheapest is ok too.
GPU: GTX970 or GTX1060 for Cossacks 3? I reckon GTX970 should be good enough for FHD Cossacks 3.
Ram: Any standard 8GB Ram
SSD/HDD: Probably a Samsung 120GB 850 Evo + WD 1TB HDD
Casing: Fractal R5 or anything similar. Need a quiet and low maintenance casing with magnetic or easy to remove and clean dust filters
PSU: Any Seasonic/equivalent 550-600W PSU to recommend?
Monitor: Probably a 23-24inch Dell monitor

Will be getting the entire set from Idealtech.

Thanks!

Intel Core i5 6500 - RM 835
I need a 27 inch monitor so will allocate RM1k for that and Windows 10.

Will get a H110M board and a Seasonic S12II 620W PSU instead.

Intel i5 6400/i7
Asrock H110M-HDV
G skill 8GB DDR4
GTX950/GTX1060
Seasonic S12II 620W PSU
Fractal Define R5 Black
Samsung EVO 850 120GB
WD 1TB HDD Blue
Benq EW2750ZL 27" 1080p monitor
Windows 10 Home

Should be about RM4.5K from Idealtech.

p/s: Would a RTS game like Cossacks 3 (recently launched) with hundreds of units in the map and possibly thousands, benefit more from a better CPU (like an i7) OR from a better GPU. From my understanding, it's the former?

Have to decide between a cheaper i5 6400 + GTX1060 combo or an i7 + GTX950 combo..

Thanks ya

I get 55-65fps on my GTX760 (Zotac 2GB Amp! pre-OCed) rig playing the game, reckon the GTX950 is better?

Ehh where did u see that ah? Just wondering..

If so, I'd probably just go for a GTX1060. Idealtech has the EVGA Superclocked GTX 1060 3GB DDR5 version for RM1199 only

This would be the final build. All okay?

Seasonic S12ii 620W no more liao. How is the superflower Leadex silver 550W for RM339 instead?

Thanks Bro.

I think I'll go for the M12ii EVO 620W as its fully modular. All seasonic PSUs should be well built and stable.

Thanks again Bro
