Thermalright also got this as PA120 alt http://www.thermalright.com/product/frost-tower-120/

They got way too much similar designs but pricing is not the same.

For RM 5k those specs are rather poor. Too many last gen stuff.

Hi all sifu,

In 2012, one of the sifu here helped me build this PC. Time flies~ I have been using this PC for more than 10 years (with some upgrades).  blush.gif
Until recently, I started to feel some games that I always play take some time to load and also have framerate-dropping issues. So, I feel like getting a new gaming rig for myself. I saw a lot of shops advertising their gaming rig bundle deal on Social Media. They normally offer the same brand for all the hardware. Should I just go and buy one of those bundles within my budget? I have a budget of around 5-5.5k~ Are there any better recommendations from the sifu here for me to build a gaming rig within this budget?

One last question, how did you guys deal with your old rig after you got a new one? blush.gif

Thanks in advance.  thumbup.gif

Bundles or what I call prebuilds, typically will have some some compromises somewhere just so the shops can hide in areas where they can make more profits since prebuilds are usually for people who aren't very tech savvy. Best, or probably the most honest one I seen recent times are from Idealtech but even those have certain weak parts; highend CPU but pair with cheaper mobos with weak VRMS that could not sustain that CPU, lousy PSU or SSD

Hi, I have a rig from 2017 and looking to see if I could upgrade from it.

Current specs:

AMD Ryzen 5 1400 3.2Ghz
ASUS Prime B350M-A AM4
Kingston DDR4 2400MHz 8GB x 2
Zotac GTX1060 3GB mini
Superflower Leadex Gold 650W
WD Blue 1 TB x 2
Tecware Edge TG case ATX

While I am not against upgrading the entire PC, I was wondering if there any parts that I could reuse here. (like just upgrading the GPU maybe?)

Do a bit of gaming like APEX, and uses ClipStudioPaint and VEGAS editing software

Budget: not more than RM5k
*
That system still have some life left, just swap the CPU to a 5800X3D, make sure you have direct airflow over the VRM


Also swap in a fast Gen3 NVME SSD, like P3/Plus, and put the rest of budget into GPU.

guys. can we connect to 3 x8pins FTW3 3080 gpu to a psu that only has 2 pcie connector on it?

I am using the Be Quite! 650w Pure Power 11 with gold certified. I know that the psu recomendation for this gpu is around 750w but I think my current PSU can run as long as I am not overclocking it.

Any thoughts? Thanks
*
If you can get a FTW3 3080, please a new 850W PSU is just a fraction cost of that GPU. 650W is no way could power a 3080 no matter how well built, you will likely face the system shutting down when the overload protection kicks in and if you do that long enuff the PSU will burn itself. Whatmore RTX 30series are known for huge transient spikes so instead you should really be looking at 850-950W PSU.

Hi, what are the recommended gen 3 M.2 SSD here? I am still using Ryzen 5 3600 and I don't think my mobo support PCIE 4.0.
*
Crucial P3 is good option if you want to maximise that PCIE3.0 bandwidth. Sequential read/write speeds up to 3500/3000MB/s. And it comes in capacity: 500GB, 1TB, 2TB, 4TB, so you can maximise the speed and storage space.

And if u buy now there is a contest to win https://www.crucialpromos.asia/?utm_source=...e%20your%20gear

What about Gen4 M2 nvme drive ? Any recommendations or not worth to pay early adopter fee ?

Where got early adopter fee for Gen4 anymore? The new tech today is Gen5 lah.

For Gen4 you pay more bcoz you want higher speeds, up to double Gen3 so the premium is there, nothing to with adopter fee. As for which, Sam 980 Pro, Crucial P5 Plus, WD850X black, all without Phison controller.

Look for Kingston KC3000. Like recommended millions of times and still no noticing it...
Stupidly overpriced Samseng and WD Stupid Nonsense? Hard pass. Kingston KC3000 is the best.
*
Agree those are overpriced simply for their brand names and reputation but personally i would pay over the Kingston simply bcoz it has Phison controller. If it was a different unit, i would reckon the Kingston.

I personally against Phison branded controller, so my own search for SSD is target to exclude those using them.

That's your personal issue. Not majority of us here.
I have no qualms in using any controller brand as long it doesn't cost a bomb and it delivers the results.

I said it was me personally I never forced it onto others. Why perasan sangat? Not like Kingston & Phison is the only ones around.

I never reckon Adata tho...?

Or rather I would not spot any of their products. If they could swap parts in SSD, they could also do the same for RAM, PSU, etc which is why I never reco their Core Reactor PSU even tho its listed as A Tier.

There are many other brands which, in my personal opinion, I would refuse to touch but unless you ask me, I dont go about sullying their name.

Majority of us do not need those Gen5 drives.
They are already here. cost 1.5k for 10k speed and it heats up pretty fast. no wonder they re bundled with big heat sink.
They look good only on benchmarks. Real life benefit will be negligible for us on normal workloads.
*
Gen5 SSD only useful if you have mobo with Gen5 slot otherwise that speed is wasted.

But for games, it doesn't really matter as long as its an SSD
