Alright then, you can downgrade the GPU to an even cheaper one to save money if you want  smile.gif
Intel Core i3 6098P - RM 446
Gigabyte H110M-DS2 (D4) - RM 276
Kingston 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM - RM 161
Palit GTX750Ti 2GB GDDR5 StormX - RM 488
WD Blue 1TB HDD - RM 209
FSP Hexa+ 450W - RM 166
Tecware F3 - RM 125

Total: RM 1871 (ETech price inclusive of GST)

Not quite possible to fit an i5 in the build, a 120GB SSD can be added with minor over budget though.

Hi terence_nwb,

I'm about to buy new case for my rig. I saw you always recommend Tecware case even on 8K rig. Is there any significant difference in term of performance vs price compared to other brands for example Bitfenix Nova. I've been lurking around and found Bitfenix Nova at RM126 while Tecware is RM115. I'm not going to spend more than RM150. Is there any reason you always go for Tecware?

Hi,

I was thinking to upgrade my old so called gaming rig. Current setup as per below:

Intel® Core™ i3-2100
MSI H61M-P35 (B3)
MSI NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 750 Ti (N750 TI-2GD5T/OCV2)
Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB 1600MHz DDR3
Kingston HyperX FURY 4GB 1600MHz DDR3
FSP HEXA+ 550W 80 Plus
Western Digital Blue 1TB
Western Digital Blue 500GB
Samsung S22B300H 21.5" LED Monitor
BitFenix Nova Windowed
Keyboard, Mouse, & Speaker

I do have some disposable income for the upgrade, budget around RM500-RM750 but cheaper is better so I can spent on something else. I might sell some of these item to top up my budget. Other item I don't think need to change. Price is based on my assumption after some survey on Garage Sales:

Intel® Core™ i3-2100 - RM200
MSI H61M-P35 (B3) - RM75
MSI NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 750 Ti (N750 TI-2GD5T/OCV2) - RM450
Kingston HyperX FURY 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 - RM150
Kingston HyperX FURY 4GB 1600MHz DDR3 - RM80

My initial idea is to sell my GTX750Ti and get GTX1050Ti + SSD. But it might get bottleneck somewhere due to my old processor. I'm aware that both my RAM running on 1333MHz, I bought it before I know about computer and stuff. I spent most of the time using this rig to play Dota 2 & CSGO. Also I play PES & FIFA on regular basis. Sometimes playing new release game title like GTAV, COD with lowest setting possible. Kindly suggest me what should I upgrade with that kind of budget.

New GTX750Ti is just around RM 500+, it might drop further with the arrival of new GTX1050/GTX1050Ti, so I assume all of the items listed by you can get you an extra of RM 850.

By adding RM 850 to your existing budget, it would become RM 1600 (with your initial max available budget), this can get you the following.

Intel Core i3 6100 ~ RM 480
Cheap H110 mATX mobo ~ RM 250
8GB DDR4 RAM ~ RM 200
GTX1050 ~  RM 650 (estimation)

Price of GTX1050/GTX1050Ti is unknown yet, I don't put my hope too high for a good introduction price for these 2 cards due to many reasons (you know it  wink.gif ), so I estimate the non-Ti 1050 will cost at least RM 650.

I saw Palit GTX1050Ti for USD160. You are right, I put so much hope. Forgot our conversion rate no longer ~3.0 sweat.gif
