Hello! First time building a PC (my friends convinced me to go the PC route instead of the laptop route when I told them my budget) and I tried to find parts myself but I honestly don't know where to start despite reading all those articles @ A @
Will either build it mid or late this year but I would like to know what parts I should go for so I can keep an eye or increase my budget if necessary (RM500 max). I've checked out some builds and prices but idk if it's maybe a bit overkill for my use. (><) I'm really really hoping that the price of RAM will go down a bit in the near future... orz

[Budget] RM5000
If possible, RM4500 without Windows and Microsoft Office

[Purpose] I think drawing, word editing and casual gaming?

[Hardwares that will be re-use] Mouse, keyboard and monitor

[Monitor resolution] 1080p... I think. I don't remember.

[Games & softwares that use frequently] FFXIV, Photoshop, SAI, Clip Studio Paint, Microsoft Office (LOL)

[Personal preferences]
- mATX
- Not gonna overclock (idek what that is and how to do it).
- My laptop now has 8GB RAM so I would like for that to be the minimum.
- If possible, I'd like to have 2 to 3TB HDD too so that I don't have to think about space in the future.
- Don't care about those flashy LEDs (no flashy lights is ideal but I think most parts are flashy these days?)
- Hoping that the build would last for maybe 2-3 years before the next major upgrade or something malfunctions (like my laptop's screen /SOBS)

Sorry if I sound a bit too picky! I really want a simple-looking machine with no lag when I raid in FFXIV. :'DD

Yes, AMD will support current chipset until at least 2020. GPU? PCI Express is backward compatible. The only thing you need to worry is power supply requirement for the new GPU.

I don't recommend monitor. I just buy and use IPS based monitor like Dell U2414H at RM959 from Dell.

Don't see any issue there. Water cooling is a waste on non-overclock CPU.

AMD because the motherboard is supported till at least 2020. Super Flower will blow GS700 away due to efficiency and output quality. Its up to you.
