GT730 is on par (or just slightly faster) with the iGPU of G4560 which is HD 610, not worth spending extra for GT730 TBH, save the money or go for better model instead.

The benefits of i3 7100 over G4560 are slightly faster core clock speed and iGPU (HD 630), its price tag is the double of G4560, I wouldn't recommend it unless you really need those minor enhancements.

HD 630 is around 25% faster than HD 610.

goldfries Can you please pin this thread? Thanks.

AVF 450W is low end PSU, don't expect good quality with this unit but it will still work just fine, lifespan might be shorter than others though, if you can, always go for a better PSU, it is like the heart of all the components.

TV has much higher input lag compared to PC monitor, manufacturers never disclose this data so it is quite hard to track the real input lag value but you will experience it easily if you play a lot of fast pace games like CS:GO, Overwatch etc.

Your budget is not easy to build a "long term PC", you gonna spend ~RM 500 for a 1080p monitor and ~RM 1500 for the rest of the components (assuming you can fork out 2k max budget), 1.5k is not a healthy budget to deal with especially when gaming is involved, 2 paths for you to choose in this scenario:

1. Get a reasonable + decent CPU and use its iGPU for gaming first, I notice you only listed Dota 2 so iGPU is probably fine if you aren't too picky on the settings that you can run, this path will not include a discrete GPU until you have more funds.

2. Run everything on low end hardware, this will grant you with a low end CPU + low end discrete GPU for gaming.

I would recommend 1st option since you are going to upgrade the parts later, it is much easier to upgrade or add in a discrete GPU later on than upgrading both CPU and GPU at the same time in the future.

If you prefer to build now (or in other word, get it done within these few days), then you don't really have to wait for GTX1080Ti, GTX1080 has its price dropped since GTX1080Ti launched few days ago and Zotac Malaysia is the first one to announce the price drop, you can get a Zotac branded GTX1080 at just ~2.7k (depends on the variants you get). But you have "unlimited" budget so it is really up to you whether to opt for GTX1080Ti

CS:GO favors Intel CPU, or in other words, it is a single threaded games and the CPU single core performance is vital in this games, FX8320 loses out to modern Intel CPU by quite a huge margin.

FX processors core definition isn't the same with Intel's one, they are like 2 integer cores into a "larger" module, and these 2 cores are sharing similar resources in the module.

An back to your question, AM3+ uses DDR3 RAM, so your 1333MHz DDR3 will work just fine on AM3+ mobo.

As low as possible.

You can consider to add an SSD to improve system responsiveness and reduce boot time or GPU to improve graphics rendering.

RX460 is much faster than GT740 but it lacks of Nvidia CUDA technology which is being used/utilized by some of the rendering software out there.

RX460 is indeed a better pick than GT740, it is not necessary to get a discrete GPU now if you are short on budget though

OC is just an factory pre-overclocked version of GTX1050Ti, you can manually OC the normal edition if you want, this is to save money.

Get Intel Pentium G4560 + H110 + 8GB RAM, add in a 1TB HDD (if needed) or 120G/240G SSD (if you don't mind spending money for it).

PSU is also needed? If yes then entry level Corsair VS450 or FSP Hexa+ 450W is enough.

So mobo not going to re-use? It is hard to find LGA1155 socket mobo for your i7 2600 now

Cannot open window? You mean the OS? If yes then you need to confirm the root cause of the issue first, sometimes the issue is from other components like a faulty HDD/SSD, RAM etc, there should be an error code shown on the screen for you to identify the root cause.

Your i7 2600 runs on a LGA1155 socket mobo, it is almost impossible to find a new mobo with this socket right now since it is long obsoleted, the best option would be finding an used unit in Garage Sales (or somewhere else).

No price drop yet in Malaysia.

* BIOS update is required to run Kaby Lake CPU on a mobo with older chipset (H110/B150/H170/Z170).

According to the system requirements posted by Lumion Software:

10k PassMark points for CPU: Min entry i7 4790
8k PassMark points for GPU: Min entry RX480/GTX970/GTX1060

If you follow all the recommended specs then it will be over your budget. Recommended specs includes an i7 processor (will use i7 7700 instead of i7 4790 because the latter is long obsoleted and replaced by the latest gen which is the former), 16GB DDR4 RAM, GTX1060 6GB as GPU, 1TB HDD (SSD is not included), a 80+ Gold rated good quality PSU (not necessary need to follow this as this is just a recommendation from them after all but it is good to keep this) and a standard ATX casing with a mATX mobo (with 4 RAM slots for future RAM expansion).

At last, monitor with 1080p resolution is not included too, FYI.

G4560 is basically an i3 (still 2C4T) with slightly lower clock speed and weaker GPU (doesn't really matter since you are going to get a discrete GPU anyway), i3 costs twice the price of G4560.

Please take note that there is a new GTX1060 variant which comes with next gen & faster GDDR5 memory speed to 9Gbps (8Gbps previously), if you want the latest 9Gbps VRAM version then you will need to wait a bit longer.

You can add SSD if you top up your budget or downgrade the PSU or GPU to 3GB model.

I would recommend Dell UltraSharp U2417H if you want 99% sRGB coverage and 72% NTSC coverage, excellent monitor for photo editing, price is around 1k.

Due to wide budget range, specs difference between a 3k rig and a 5k rig is very significant.

If photo editing is the main priority, then switching the monitor to the one with 99% sRGB and wide color gamut support like Dell UltraSharp series will greatly improve the experience.

Technically, 2 x 4GB is slightly faster than 1 x 8GB due to dual channel mode but it is very hard to notice the difference in real life usage.

The mobo chosen comes with 2 RAM slots only so it is better to get 1 x 8GB so you can upgrade to 16GB (more or less) in the future easily.

2 x 8GB, the total price of the RAM indicates it.

Do you install any new hardware/components recently? If yes, try to remove it first.

If don't have, then remove all the connected hardware like GPU, HDD/SSD, leave CPU and RAM installed, then try to boot again.

What's the maximum size of the rig that you can accept? Intel Skull Canyon is quite pricey and you can get a much better build if you go for custom rig path.

There are 2 mainstream SSD in M.2 form factor, SATA and PCIe NVMe, SATA M.2 SSD is somewhat similar to 2.5" SATA based SSD but at a much smaller foot print, while PCIe NVMe uses next gen BUS and is significant faster than SATA based SSD.

Please make sure your mobo supports PCIe NVMe M.2 SSD first before you make the purchase.

Doom 2016 is one of the most optimized PC games in recent years, pick an AMD card and run the games with Vulkan API, you can easily get > 60 FPS in max settings (1080p).

To keep below 3k, you can:
1. Downgrade the SSD to other lower end model with either similar capacity or smaller capacity
2. RX470 4GB to RX460 2GB (-40% in performance)
3. Kaby Lake i5 to Skylake i5 6402P (~almost no difference in terms of performance)
4. Further downgrade to i3 7100 (i3 7100 is on par with i5 2400)

BIOS update is required to run Kaby Lake CPU on a mobo with older chipset (H110/B150/H170/Z170).
