Hi sifus,
need your recommendation on pc parts with price. I plan to upgrade my rig. Mostly use it to play games on 1080p. Here are the current specs:

Budget: around rm2000 - rm3000

i3 4160 ~~ any newest and best i5 or i7
asus h81m-k ~~ if need to change due to cpu compatibility, please specify ya
ram 8gb (4gbx2) ~~ i think don't need to upgrade on this yet
galax gtx 750ti ~~ preferably to get the best gtx1060. please specify the best one
silverstone strider essential 500w ~~ this one can support gtx1060 right?

My current rig was actually based on one of the sifu here (can't remember the name) around two years ago if I'm not mistaken and I'm really happy with it.

Now I just want to get up to date to the latest tech.

You guys are awesome and Thanks in advance!

hey guys. im thinking to buy a gtx 1060 (around +-1.3k) but I found a new gtx 1070 around +-1.8k. im gonna upgrade most of my hardware (proc+gpu+mobo+ram). current gpu is 750ti n budget around +-4k for the upgrade. im fine with gaming in 1080p. is it really a good choice to buy gtx 1070 with that price or just buy gtx 1060 n use that xtra money for other things?

anyone got any thoughts on the pricing whether it is a good deal or not ?

all right thanks for the input. im using old acer 19" 60hz monitor. will buy 1060 n extra $$$ to buy better + bigger monitor
