You definitely misunderstood me. Instead of buying NUC, go for RM1k rig. They are much more powerful.

AMD Athlon 200GE - 229
Asus PRIME A320M-K - 239
Kingston 4GB DDR4-2666 X 1 - 139
WD Blue or Seagagte 1TB - 179
Coolermaster Elite 350W - 129

This setup definitely has better chance of playing higher resolution video than Celeron.

Oke.. thanks a lot..ill try surveying for second hand parts..😚

Unbelievably, it's doable for RM500.
Get a Mini PC, such as from here https://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?catId=...rchText=mini+pc

But if budget RM500, can only get X5 Z8350 with 2GB RAM, like this
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/WooYi-winte...2654398163.html
Enough to play Youtube and 1080p H264 video. But will not be powerful enough for 2160p H265, I have N3450 cpu with 4GB RAM, it can playback 1080p H265 smoothly, but not 2160p H265. But then again if your TV is 4K, it should be able to play 2160p H265 video from the USB. So no need PC to play 4K video file.

Hi everyone.

I'm in need of recommendations for a new PC. I hope I can get some recommendations. Below are the details:

[Budget]
RM5500+ (does not include Monitor, Speakers/Headphone, Mouse, Keyboard and OS/software)

[Purpose]
Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use]
None. All new.

[Monitor resolution]
N/A

[Games & softwares that use frequently]
Planning to play COD Black Ops 4 and Project Cars 2 and maybe some AA rated games from 2016 & 2017.

[Personal preferences]
Not a full tower atx casing.
SSD+HDD combination.
Intel CPU
Nvidia graphic card

Hah! That's even a better list than when I tried to choose my own components. Thanks man. I guess that's the best you can spec'ed up with my budget.

Hmm, let's say if take off the casing from your list(trying to persuade my brother to upgrade his current casing and give it to me ) and I'm willing to spare another 200-300ish on top of the total price of the list above, which components would you recommend to upgrade?

Hard disk, full size motherboard, better brand for the graphic card.

hi, I got an old pc with the following spec. Does it worth upgrading on some parts to play mainstream games or just buy a new one?

Operating System
Windows 10 Pro 64-bit
CPU
Intel Core i3 2100 @ 3.10GHz
Sandy Bridge 32nm Technology
RAM
4.00GB Single-Channel DDR3 @ 532MHz (8-8-8-20)
Motherboard
ASRock H61M-GS (CPUSocket)
Graphics
2060W3 (1920x1080@60Hz)
1023MB NVIDIA GeForce GT 740 (Gigabyte)
Storage
931GB Western Digital WDC WD10EALX-009BA0 (SATA )

Whats your budget if you were to build a new one? Your system is pretty old.

I plan to just using Ryzen APU for gaming, budget around rm1200 only. poor fag here

been searching web for 300 usd gaming rig, this is what came up:

cpu
AMD Ryzen 3 2200G
ram
G. Skill Aegis 4GB DDR4-2400 RAM
hdd
Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD
psu
EVGA BR 500W 80+ Bronze-Certified PSU
mobo
Gigabyte GA-A320M-S2H Micro ATX Motherboard

Welp.. then yeah the above specs are probably the best you can opt for. Try to get at least 8gb though as thats the minimum requirement for games these days. 4GB isn't sufficient.

Hi, currently using 8gb Corsair vengeance lpx 2400mhz c16, on ryzen system. Would like to upgrade to 16gb. Can I buy different latency but same speed ram?

Must be exactly same spec to have dual channel. Buying different spec could also cause compatibility issues.

Storage running out of space. 160gb left.

Should i get a 1tb SSD or do people still use HDD these days ? If so, which brand / model ?

4tb purple ?

Put only games with shit ton of files on SSD(10000+ files). Put games with little files, installers, audio and video on HDD.

If you can afford SSD, why not? Crucial MX500 1TB is dirt cheap at Viewnet. Avoid those 5400-5900rpm hard disks. 2-3TB = Seagate Barracuda or Pro, 4TB = WD Black or Seagate Barracuda Pro.
