Depends on which brand you are getting.

HIS RX460 4GB is the cheapest RX460 now, RM 599 only, most of the shops in Lowyat Plaza are selling it now.

Otherwise Palit/Zotac GTX950 2GB is slightly cheaper than Sapphire/Gigabyte/XFX RX460 2GB/4GB.

If only for Dota 2/CS:GO, just get the cheapest one, they barely make a difference in games (in terms of frame rate in 1080p).

Hi, previously i saw you suggested someone with the below:-

"Intel Core i5 6402P - RM 707
Gigabyte H110M-DS2 (D4) - RM 276
Kingston 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 145
Palit GTX950 2GB GDDR5 StormX - RM 609
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 209
Corsair VS450 - RM 162
TP-LINK TL-WN722N USB WiFi - RM 45
Tecware F3 - RM 125
BenQ GW2470H - RM 469

Total: RM 2747 (ETech price inclusive of GST)"

In which his requirement was only Dota2. If I am only looking at minimal gaming (Dota2 - which only looking at the medium video setting instead of max setting).

Would it be fine to go without GPU (GTX950)? Just use Intel's HD 530. As I only using mostly on movies and surfing net. Minimal dota2 (medium setting will do *with decent FPS)

Please upgrade the CPU to at least i5 6400 if you want to game on a stronger iGPU (HD 530), i5 6402P is using the weaker HD 510.
Hard to notice the difference in real life usage and it is way overpriced for the PRO version, I would spend a little bit more on NVMe SSD if I were to get the PRO version  laugh.gif

I think I googled as i5 6500's GPU lol. okay means :-

1. it is workable if only Intel's GPU.
2. HD 510, can assert my need (medium setting of D2 - since not very GPU demanding)?
3. HD 530, can assert my need (medium setting of D2 - since not very GPU demanding)?

Cause I was thinking since for now I not require any extensive GPU yet. Maybe keep a slot for future upgrade (if any).

If we use Nvidia GPU as reference,

HD 510 is between GT710 - GT720.

HD 530 is between GT730 - GT740.

Medium settings in Dota 2 should be able to yield 50+ FPS (1080p).

You mean both also 50+ FPS (1080p)? I think good enough for me LOL.
