Hi sifus,

[Budget] 5k - 6k

[Purpose] mostly gaming and to have high scalability (for upgrades) in the future.


As a total noob, this is what I got so far, anything missing? (I think I need to some Wifi adapters as well?):-

CPU: Intel Core I5 8400 RM689
MOBO: GIGABYTE Z370 AORUS Gaming 5 RM909
RAM: G.SKILL AEGIS Series 8GB DDR4 2666mhz (CL19) RM369
GPU: GIGABYTE GTX1070TI Windforce 8GB DDR5 256BIT RM2229
SSD: SAMSUNG 860 EVO M.2 250GB SSD RM429
HDD: WD 1TB Caviar Blue 7200RPM/64MB RM189
PSU: CORSAIR SF450 (SFX) (80+ GOLD/MODULAR) RM379
CASE: PHANTEKS ECLIPSE P300 Tempered Glass (White)(RGB) RM255

Total - RM5448* (Prices from Idealtech PC)

Any recommendations and advice highly appreciated

Edit: oh ya, i dont tend to OC, if it matters at all for my pc build.

Thanks for the quick reply, bro. Anything else I should look out for?

Hi guys,

Looking at getting a NVIDIA GTX1060 6GB.

Between Asus, Gigabyte and MSI, which brand would be the better choice? (Performance wise and noise-wise). Now im looking at either Gigabyte G1, Asus Strix or Asus Dual.

Thanks!

then any difference between Strix and Strix DC2?
With 3 fans, would it be too loud?

Thanks for the quick reply.

haha, i see. Thank a lot for the help

one more question.

If i'm getting Asus Strix 1060 +i5 8400, how bout MOBO?

Looking at GA H370 Aorus Gaming 3 or B360M Aorus Gaming 3?
