I wanted to buy a gaming pc, maybe on Feb of 2023 after CNY.

I would have around RM4000 +- 200 as budget

Since i dont have any experience in building pc myself, can you guys suggest me some options for reference?

I plan to visit lowyat plaza myself to browse and buy pc physically. Since i dont really trust shopee and lazada gaming pc and neither the promoters since i heard that some promoters in lowyat might "scam" you if u didnt do enough research, im worried lol

Anyways,
Thank you in advanced for your help.

there's a guy here in /k tht always help ppl build pc, cant remember his username but u can try seach around n mayb contact him

buying in shopee/Lazada BUT from reputable pc shop is the better option nowadays. for sure warranty claim also no issue one.

his reply will always be:

i assemble saja

u mau beli, u contact sales

i'll hope that he sees this post then

I recently just bought from Juspc - you can look for them in FB. they are good, friendly, helpful, and professional.

i've seen one, but when i consulted my friends who all are built their own gaming pc, they didnt recognize some of the specs such as the RAMs, etc.

The one i have my eyes on is this:

SET G @ RM 4350

CPU👉 INTEL I5-12400F * 6 Core 12 Threads
GPU👉 COLORFUL RTX 3070 NB DUO 8GB
MB👉 ASROCK B660M HDV
RAM👉 ZADAK TWIST DDR4-3200Mhz 8GB
SSD👉 PNY Gen3x4 500GB
PSU👉 SEGOTEP AN650W 80+
CASE👉TRILOBITE T3

Topup abit rtx 4090

wat specs and wat price?

the right way to approach this by knowing what kind of game do you want to play.

check the games recommended requirements.
after that, then start looking for parts..
cpu.. gpu, mobo, psu etc......

Only then you find people to assemble it for you. (if you don know how)

In Sunway, that place opposite Medical Centre.

pls list what you use it for? what game u usually play/planned to play on it?
some ppl never play AAA game, no need powerful GPU

I rmb long long long long ago I ask in the desktop/hardware section there, giving a budget and my requirement, tons of experts give their recommendation.

Then I use the recommended hardware and approach my local store, buy and assemble there.

u can find video and assemble yourself. i already assembled 3 desktop by myself. but the first 1 with guidance.

anyway i buy all my parts online from different sellers and assemble it myself. my longest desktop already 6 years and running. only thing spoil is the stupid hdd.

btw ur set still lack monitor, keyboard, mouse, speaker.

and how many fans u need? you will use stock cpu fan?

if u want go further u still missing desk and chair.

what games u wanna play, lmao

ltr bought and cant meet ur expectation when playing the game u wanted

Why ts need new acc asking new pc on k

I really like the casing; cabling is the best because it has lots of cable tie hooks. Can separate casing cable group, fans cable group, and PSU cable group easily.

CPU can consider 12400 instead of 12400F if can add money. Initially, I see 12400 has much lower temperature when it was first launched, but most mobo new BIOS have reduce 12400F temperature to 12400's level.

since you've already set a budget, which is good, check out www.logicalincrements.com to have a rough idea of components you can get for the price. that way you'll know what to expect when you do go to lowyat.
