Hi guys,

I am looking for a pc system to power up a 2x2HDTV video wall. My budget is about RM2k.

Screen resolution for 2x2 video wall should be 3840x2140 thus the eyefinity from RED team is more preferable at the moment.

Any suggestion for the system?

i3 7100
Motherboard?
GC: R9 380x
8gb Ram
1TB HD or 128gb SSD
reliable 450-500W power supply
normal casing

This specs right?

Not much you can get from selling off your parts, mostly < RM 200 (if lucky) for CPU and mobo, GPU is not included since it is sent for checking, same goes to HDD, RAM and monitor where you can re-use them in your next build.

So it is 4 FHD TV combine together and become 3840 x 2160 right?

Just get a cheap H110 mobo and call it a day since nothing special on the mobo requirement side.

Hi all,

Looking to buy a full setup for a friend's dad.

[Hardwares that will be re-use] none. would need to buy everything

[Monitor resolution] should be possible to get 24" 1980x1080 right?

[Personal preferences] I'm not sure if there's a need for a dedicated gpu, but if possible can suggest a setup with room for upgrade in the future (gpu, ssd, ram slots)

Definitely not a budget for getting i5. 2017 prices isn't budget friendly.

How about these?

Core i3-7100 - 518
Asus H110M-K - 279
Corsair 8GB DDR4-2133 x1 - 260
WD Blue 1TB (go for 7200rpm only) or Seagate 1TB - 212
Corsair VS 550W - 248
Thermaltake Versa case - 169
LG 24MP68VQ 24" monitor - 562
Edifier M1335 2.1 speakers - 137
Logitech MK100 mouse and keyboard - 49 (from Viewnet)

RM2440 total (mostly C-Zone prices)

How about these?

Core i5-7400 - 790

If you are gaming on 1080p, I suggest you increase your budget. 2017 prices isn't budget friendly.

[Monitor resolution]1080p 21.5">

[Personal preferences] Portable mini Pc Casing, CM110. May reuse CPU to upgrade my GPU to GTX1070/ new AMD GPU in the future (within 6 months).

Dear all, feel that my old pc become slower.
Phenom x4 955
Asus M4A785TDV-EVO
Ram 2 x 4g
Radeon 5870
Huntkey 80master 700w

Not really a gamer, only play starcraft 2,most of the time office/surfing/photoshop. Can I change the CPU/Motherboard/Ram and use back my GPU?

Since you are planning to upgrade the GPU to GTX1070 (or AMD equivalent if got) in the near future, i7 is recommended so you can re-use in your next upgrade as i5 bottlenecks the GTX1070 in some CPU demanding titles (especially few recent triple A titles). But unfortunately your budget cannot fit an i7 yet, if you were to get an i7 now then you will have to rely on a low end GPU for gaming, the next available option is to wait for the cheaper AMD Ryzen 5 and their respective X300/A/B300 SFF mobo to reach Malaysia first before you make the purchase.

Intel Core i5 7500 - RM 922
ASRock H110M-ITX - RM 283
G.SKill Aegis 8GB 2133MHz RAM - RM 255
Zotac GTX1060 3GB GDDR5 Mini - RM 989
SSD re-use
HDD re-use
Superflower Leadex Silver 650W - RM 399
CM Elite 110 - RM 158

Total: RM 3006 (ETECH price inclusive of GST)

Sure.

should i get ryzen 1700 or i7 7700k? 8C/16T vs 4C/8T

a bit gaming, mostly use for work (multitasking & virtualization)

Ryzen should be better for you since you don't play games much.

Since it is mostly for work, having more cores will be better

ok thanks, will get ryzen 7.

Guys, I think I've lost my mind. I've just purchased a GTX 980 in the middle of the night without thinking straight..., my current specs are:

AMD Athlon 4x635
Asus M4N68-T
1TB Samsung SATA HDD
8GB DDR3 Kingston Hyper FuryX​
500W PSU

I am expecting huge bottlenecks. Ryzen i5 coming out soon right?

11/04.

[Budget] RM 5000

[Purpose] Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] None

[Monitor resolution]

[Personal preferences] Require monitor. Not overclocking.
