Hey sifus,

I planning to upgrade my com to last and support some latest games (destiny 2 XD).

I just upgraded my proc from fx6300 to i5 6500.

All in together with the Mobo ram I spend abt rm1300 TT.

My current GPU is a r9 270 dualx 2gb d5. Does this required an upgrade or it can still last a year more with medium quality gaming..

I think I blow too much of my budget on the cpu there.

If in need of an upgrade, what gpu would be best? The most value for money upgrade to my r9..

If you have no issues, don't bother upgrading further. if you do, Viewnet selling Leadtek GTX970 at RM949. That's very cheap.

Went to Lowyat Plaza this afternoon and was able to spot few RX580 there.

Zotac is 5 years (selected models), others are mainly 3 years.

Mini is of course cheaper than others as it is the lowest end series of Zotac model, their AMP and AMP Extreme are the high end series.
For 1k budget, only new G4560 and i3 can fit (after adding up the mobo and RAM), i5/i7/cheapest Ryzen all require > 1k (total around 1.3k for the cheapest parts available).

If you are okay with used item, look for used third gen i7 or fourth gen i5 and their respective mobo in Garage Sales, they can be bought under 1k.
