Hi Sifus, could I get a recommendation based on the above please?

Besides that, I have an existing 1440p monitor that I wish to use as a secondary monitor, mainly for watching other media while gaming etc. RTX seems rather disappointing price/performance wise so I guess a 1080Ti would be best, or would SLI with 2 1070s etc be more worth it?

Thank you!

Thanks for the headsup. I see that they're expected to be reviewed early next month. I guess I'll wait until then before deciding.
Yea, I'm still on my previous rig, a 3570k though

Thank you for the suggested specs. May I ask what are the main advantages of the ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-F ? I forgot to mention that I have a dedicated sound card (Asus Xonar Essence STX) that I will be transferring over. Seeing that this mobo has a soundcard as well, would it be compatible?


Yes, i'll do that. After further research, i'm now thinking of going for the Alienware AW3418D instead. Around 1k more on Shopee, but seems worth it for the build and specs.

[Budget] : Around RM9k

[Purpose] : Gaming

[Hardwares that will be re-use] : Keyboard, Mouse, HDD, Monitors

[Monitor resolution]: Acer X34 P + Secondary 1440p monitor for streaming while gaming.

[Games & softwares that use frequently]: AAA titles

[Personal preferences]: Minimal RGB lighting, would prefer price/performance over lights

Hello again Sifus.
Seeing that the new Intel 9 series is not that worth it price/performance wise, opinions on the following? (based on previous recommendations + some snooping around)

CPU: INTEL CORE I7 8700K PROCESSOR
COOLER: NH-D15 (I read that air cooling is still more efficient)?
MOBO: ASUS ROG STRIX Z370-F GAMING
RAM: KINGSTON 3200 HYPERX PREDATOR RGB 8GB X 2
GPU: ZOTAC GTX1080TI 8G 11GB OC
SSD: SAMSUNG 970 EVO 250GB M2 PCIE
HDD: Already bought
PSU: SUPER FLOWER 750W LEADEX II 80+ GOLD
CASE: Fractal Design DEFINE R6 TG ATX

The above from C-Zone sums up to around 8.5k.

Questions:
1. Is C-Zone the best choice to order it from? Are there other alternatives that offer OC services etc?
2. RTX2080 vs GTX1080TI? 2080 seems to be available for around RM600+ more elsewhere, is that worth it?

Thank you again~

Thank you for all the advice and recommendations Sifus.
I went ahead and placed an order with E Tech PC.
