Seeking advice from sifus here.

Its been a long time i did not build a custom cpu.. now i want to build one for the purpose of: 1. As my data storage, 2. As a processing workhorse for my work data analysis

To build a cpu from used spare parts, how much do you think it will costs for below requirements:

1. CPU: intel i7 (4 cores) clocked at least >2.0ghz
2. 8gb ram
3. Graphic card: decent, i wont play game on this, just need a card that can serve the monitor modestly
4. Motherboard that can accommodate item 1-3 above
5. Power supply, a decent and reliable one. I dont want to risk the cpu blow up obviously bcoz i will keep data in it
6. Hard drive, a small but efficient one is enough.. most data will be stored in my external
7. A simply casing but enought to efficiently accommodate the above

How much these will totally cost? Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Just wanted to chip in a bit.

LGA1155 Xeon Build
1. LGA1155 Xeon E3 1230 v2: RM 450 (can nego till 400)
2. RM 180 to RM200
3. RM 50 for gt710, RM 80 for gt730 (or you can opt for some super duper old gpu for like <RM50)
4. RM 150 for H61 (you may want to go for H77 if you wanted 4 ddr3 slots)
6. Recommend buy new because HDD lifespan is not that long, 1tb WD: RM159

LGA1155 i7 Build
1. i7 3770: RM550
2. RM 180 to RM200
3. Use back the integrated gpu: RM 0
4. RM 150 for H61 (you may want to go for H77 if you wanted 4 ddr3 slots)
6. Recommend buy new because HDD lifespan is not that long, 1tb WD: RM159

I left out 5 and 7 because these two are subjective to your needs.

All these prices are from either garage sales, lazada or carousell so happy finding biggrin.gif
