QUOTE(masterawai @ Mar 2 2017, 12:14 PM) I'm not really hurry, could be around 3 or 4 months from today, If in no hurry, you will get better value with your budget. In any case, 1080p with ultra settings, a GTX1070 is good. A GTX1060 may do too but some settings will need to be scaled down. For 1440p with ultra settings, a GTX1080 is recommended. FYI GTX1080TI has been announced. Definitely a consideration as it is supposed to be good for 4k and even 5k resolution. This means it will rock 1440p. Price point will be circa current GTX1080. So, should you wait? Definitely!!and if 1080p resolution, which GPU should i buy? and if 1440p? |

QUOTE(linkinawe @ Mar 4 2017, 01:21 PM) hi all , what is the cheapest GPU I can get ? My purpose is just want to have dual digital output, at least one HDMI because one of my monitor can only receive hdmi , then another can receive hdmi or dvi. So the GPU should have either hdmi+dvi , or hdmi + hdmi , any recommendation ? Both monitor are only up to 1080P. Prefer nvidia. You go try look for deals in GS section. Here's an exampleMy mobo only support hdmi + vga that why I need to upgrade. Budget under Rm300 , possible ? This post has been edited by richard912: Mar 4 2017, 02:33 PM |

QUOTE(redapple90 @ Mar 4 2017, 06:46 PM) Hi all, I wanted to build a budget gaming PC for below RM2000 if possible. Exclude monitor, mouse and speakers. My CPU in mind is pentium G4560 and the GPU is GTX 1050 TI OC. I understand that the GPU is taking up almost half the budget but does this make it more future proof? Nothing is future proof unless you stick to playing the same game because newer games will require more and more resources.Appreciate your suggestions and comparisons for this matter. Thank you 1. CPU - Intel G4560 (RM239) 2. MOBO - ASUS H110M-D (RM299) 3. RAM - DDR4-2133 8Gb (RM289) 4. HDD - 1TB (RM219) 5. Case - AVF with 450W PSU (RM159) 6. GPU - GTX1050ti (RM719) Total - RM1924 |

QUOTE(Quan920907 @ Mar 14 2017, 03:52 PM) Eeek...all caps....eyes pain painConsidering that you want to run GTA V, maintaining the i7 is ideal. Adding another RM500+ you should be able to get a 144Hz 24" monitor, one with G-sync since you will be running a GTX1060. BenQ Zowie XL2411 comes to mind. |

QUOTE(dudey @ Mar 14 2017, 10:31 PM) Hi all, Not sure what kind of games you play but assuming you are playing at 1080p, looks like a decent build and I understand you are trying to re-use your existing DDR3. If you want small but still use an ATX mobo, Fractal Design Define C or Corsair Carbide 400 or NZXT S340 may be your choices. They aren't exactly light at ~8kg.Am thinking of upgrading my current gaming desktop. My current budget for the upgrade is around RM5000 (excluding current parts that I have). I'm also trying to search for a lightweight/small casing that can fit all the parts as I may have to move several times. The following would be the existing parts that I have: Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R9 290 4GB Tri-X OC Video Card Storage: Crucial M4 256GB 2.5" Solid State Drive Storage: Western Digital BLACK SERIES 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive Memory: Corsair Vengeance 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory I have something like the following in my mind. CPU: Intel Core i7-7700 3.6GHz Quad-Core Processor Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 DDR3 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard Memory: Corsair Vengeance 16GB (4 x 4GB) DDR3-1866 Memory Storage: Crucial M4 256GB 2.5" Solid State Drive Storage: Western Digital BLACK SERIES 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R9 290 4GB Tri-X OC Video Card Power Supply: SeaSonic PRIME 650W 80+ Titanium Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply Casing: Any recommendation for a lightweight/small casing? Would appreciate if you could advise on my current build. Any recommendation for it would be much appreciated. Thank you! |

QUOTE(dudey @ Mar 15 2017, 12:07 AM) Thanks. I've made some modification to the current build. I need to additional memory for some work. What do you think. It's a much better build, more relevant. Mobo is still ATX.CPU: Intel Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor Motherboard: Asus STRIX Z270-E GAMING ATX LGA1151 Motherboard Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 64GB (4 x 16GB) DDR4-2666 Memory Storage: Crucial M4 256GB 2.5" Solid State Drive Storage: Western Digital BLACK SERIES 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R9 290 4GB Tri-X OC Video Card Power Supply: SeaSonic PRIME 650W 80+ Titanium Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply Casing: Any recommendation for a lightweight/small casing? |

QUOTE(Ultraman123 @ Mar 16 2017, 11:15 AM) Hey guys, is it worth to upgrade from i5 4460 to i7 7700? From an i5 4460 to an i7 7700, there will definitely be an improvement for performance. You can check this.huge different or slightly different? Also, isn't the higher ghz the faster it process? Sry for asking noob question. A possible wallet-friendly upgrade is to trade up your i5 4460 to an i7-4790 or an i7 4790K if your existing mobo supports OC. |

QUOTE(shunkori @ Mar 16 2017, 09:36 PM) tough luck then It depends on the resolution you game at and the type of games you play. Some games like GTA V require a strong CPU as well as decent GPU. Most will require GPU. Remember though, a low end CPU will bottleneck a high end GPUfor gaming in max settings, do i really need a decent GPU? like those gpu that can clock? for example i5 7600 v it 7600k mind to enlighten me the difference? |
