Thanks for your suggestion. Ryzen 3 2200G it is.

One more thing, I see many seller bundle this processor with asus prime B320M. Should I buy this board instead of B350-plus? What about B350M

Thanks

There is no B320M. Its A320M. A320 has no overclock support, less USB and SATA ports.

oops! sorry, my bad

Thanks again for all your replies. Going to the mines today for a pc shopping

Budget around 3k.. what is new adapter?

Get a new wireless adapter instead of new system i mean

Only mobo and CPU?

If rig is purely for gaming:
i5-8600k - 986
ASRock Z370 Extreme4 - 739
OR mobo with onboard wifi ASROCK Z370 KILLER SLI/ac - 639

If rig is for multitasking:
Ryzen 2600x - 925
ASRock Fatal1ty X470 Gaming K4 - 669
OR mobo with onboard wifi - GIGABYTE X470 AORUS GAMING 5 WIFI - 780

All above are Lelong prices

You can look into PCIe Wireless cards, they're usually better in terms of range and durability than a wireless USB adapter.

Hello sifu out there,

Currently I have bought parts as following:-

Casing - Cooler Master Masterbox 5
PSU Super Flower Leadex II Gold 650W
SSD Samsung 850 EVO 250GB
HDD WD Blue 1TB
RAM G.Skill RipJaws V 2800MHz 8GB x 3
Fan Cooler Master Air Balance x 2, Air Pressure x 1, Noctua NF-A14 3000 PWM x2
CPU cooler Cooler Master Hyper 212X?

Would like recommendation on the rest components:
CPU
Mobo (If it comes with WiFi then great!)
GPU (Very very light gaming)
CPU cooler? (Heard CM hyper 212X is good? Or any good air cooler choices here?)
Monitor (preferable 23 and above, can recommend few choices here?)
Lightning isolator/ Protector / etc?

No overclock, budget around 2.5 - 3k

Hi All,

[Budget] 4.5k

[Purpose] Gaming and movie

[Hardwares that will be re-use] Monitor

[Monitor resolution] 1080p

[Games & softwares that use frequently] AAA game titles, occasional movie and drama streaming

[Personal preferences] I've listed the below from Etech:
CORE I5 8400 (6C/6T) - 711
GIGABYTE B360M AORUS GAMING 3 - 337
G.SKILL AEGIS SERIES 8GB DDR4 2400MHZ x 2 - 658
ZOTAC GTX 1070 Ti MINI 8GB GDDR5 - 2000
WD BLUE DESKTOP 1TB - 170
GALAX 240GB GAMER L - 254
FSP 650W HYPER M85+ 80+ BRONZE - 269
TECWARE NEXUS M TG M-ATX CHASSIS - 139
CM HYPER 212 LED TURBO BLACK - 141
Total: 4679

[Location] PJ/KL

Like to know from the above if:

1) Best bang of buck for my budget?
2) That PSU is good to go for a non-OC build?
3) That SSD is fine for entry usage? never use SSD before

Want to comment on some parts:
- ZOTAC GTX 1070 Ti MINI 8GB GDDR5 - 2000
You can get the GALAX GeForce® GTX 1070 Ti EX-SNPR WHITE for RM1999 which would be better than the mini 1070 Ti you have there.

- WD BLUE DESKTOP 1TB - 170
Try looking at Seagate Barracuda 1TB (ST1000DM010) if you want better performance. And I'm pretty sure they should be cheaper too.

- GALAX 240GB GAMER L - 254
Not sure what your budget is like, but if you can spend RM50 more, try getting the Crucial MX500 instead.

- FSP 650W HYPER M85+ 80+ BRONZE - 269
Look into Cooler Master MasterWatt 550W (not the Lite version), should be better than the PSU you picked.

I'm assuming you're more on multitasking and not towards gaming?
If yes then I suggest going Ryzen instead:

CPU - RYZEN 5 2600X (6C/12T) - 999
CPU Cooler - The Ryzen 2600x already comes with a good stock cooler, and your 212X might not come with AM4 bracket but if it does then you can use that too.
MOBO - ASROCK X470 MASTER SLI / AC - 695 (has onboard wifi, and if you do get this mobo, make sure it has the MASTER SLI/AC)
GPU - GALAX GTX1050TI 4G EXOC - 725
Monitor - VIEWSONIC VA2419-SH - 499
Lightning isolator/ Protector / etc - Do you really need it?

TOTAL - 2918
C-zone prices

Hi, thanks for your input.
Probably just light - medium gaming..Is Ryzen lack quite a bit in term of gaming? If yes, how much need to top up for intel build?
For the mobo, may I know MASTER SLI is referring to model specific or bios unlock?
Besides viewsonic, any other monitor model would you recommend ?

Thanks again!

Depends on what game really, some games benefit more from single core performance so Intel currently wins in that department.
But I don't think the performance difference is really that big from Intel to Ryzen. You can get an intel build for a similar price for sure.
Something like this:
INTEL I5-8600K - 990
ASROCK X370 KILLER SLI - 619 (this model does not have onboard wifi, hence why there is no SLI/AC in its model name)

The MASTER SLI/AC is just the model name, and yes all of the Ryzen mobo are unlocked so you'll be able to overclock your CPU.
Not sure about monitors really, you'll have to read other people's review and recommendation.

Thanks mate. I chose zotac cause of the extended warranty. Not going to oc it too so thought dun need better cooler. But I think white gpu does matches that casing better hehe

No mx500 or cm masterwatt at etech... Next price range is Kingston A400 and klevv. For psu, next price range is vs650 and super flower leader silver 550w

Have any of you guys bought some pc parts from amazon? Are there any extra charges when it arrived in Malaysia?

Bro just take the Kingston A400 SSD. 120GB selling at RM110.

EVGA BV 500W Bronze. Nice PSU with sleeved black cable. RM209.

Both from realible brands.

You can buy from Shopee. Good aftersale service!

Hi all.. just a small question.. most of the b360m board can handle i7 8700 right?

Noted with thank

Hi, I need a new suggestion as my previous request was during GST days.

[Budget] RM3,000 - RM3,500

[Purpose] Digital Art, Graphic, Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse

[Monitor resolution] 1920 x 1080

[Games & softwares that use frequently] Photoshop, Illustrator, Lightroom, AAA Games (idk.. FFXV/FFXIV/Sims4/PUBG?)

[Personal preferences] I'm not an avid gamer but I do occasionally want to play some AAA games mainly those listed above. Mainly using this PC for digital art and graphic designing.

Also a dumb question, suggested builds (and the parts listed) by contributors should be the final price right? Will there be additional cost not included in the build suggestion? What about windows installation?
