    Alright, thanks, I might go with the EC1-B or wait for the Glorious O to be available here.

    KenXeiko got a reaction from Automobili3XF in Has Logitech already fixed that frequent issue with G403/G603/G703 scroll wheels?   
    For the G403, it was probably the first batch of G403's that had problems with the Scroll wheel. I had my G403 since August of 2017 and never had any problems with it, the only problems I have with it that came up recently is the Sidegrips fading away due to heavy use or sweat. However, the scrollwheel did recently begin to bug out, a few weeks ago. Probably because it's aging, although I have no idea about the G603/G703.
     
    I do highly recommend the mouse, it has served me well for almost 2 years.

    Thanks guys, i think i'll be going with a Firecuda, and a SSD (WD Green). I did lower the cost of the PSU by changing my decision from an EVGA G2 650w to a Seasonic Focus+ 550FX which gave me a higher budget for storage, i realized i didnt need that much power.
     
    I'll be deciding whether i'd like to buy Headphones instead of an SSD, but i guess that's a decision i have to make by my own lol.

    For gaming there are some options in the external hard drives department, you may want to see them: https://www.seagate.com/consumer/play/
     
    Then the SSHD Firecuda can give you the benefits you are looking for, definitely:

    I assume that this will be for a new system build? If so, I would go for a hard drive/ssd combo. If you don't mind not booting from an SSD, the Firecuda is a fine choice.

    KenXeiko reacted to Biggerboot in WD Black vs. Seagate SSHD   
    Firecuda offers the same length of warranty as the black.  Blacks fail as often as any hard drive, what matters is the warranty.  I'd actually get whatever's cheaper in this case.

    On an old piece of garbage PC,...limited to Sata 1,..(150) I saw noteworthy gains just using an SSHD over a standard Mech.
    Windows/apps benefit GREATLY,..if not gaming.
     
    On modern machines and some testing,.Gaming (EG BF3/4) after a few rounds,...Windows isn't cached anymore,.. but games were much better playing repeated rounds.
    I have a 2TB Firecuda and my games are there,.. I also have a Raid0 SSD setup, Warships is on the Raid0 cos it has a much greater benefit than most games do.
    Not talking about value,.. but the results are great for my SSHD gaming drive,..and older machines not gaming using Windows,... work great with ample storage.

    Hey OP, regardless of which brand or product you decide feels right for your needs in the end, we do want to say thanks for considering Seagate!

    Here is the spec sheet on the 2TB FireCuda, we just wanted to make sure you've got it.

    look, your graphics card is addicted to some sort of drug. i'd recommend you seek medical attention, it seems like it still has some time to live if it goes to some sort of rehabilitation program.
    we know it can be difficult but sometimes you have to let go.
     
     
     
     
    it looks broken, try to get it replaced if it's still under warranty. if not then save up for another one i guess

    You could always use Logical Increments. They have a tiered PC parts list for the Philippines. It's a good guide to help you get started. Change the parts as you see fit. For the Arma games, you might favor an unlocked CPU and Z87 motherboard, so that you can overclock an i5-4670K later on to get better performance. Could be useful in the future, too.
     
    I won't give you a PCPartPicker build because they don't have a Filipino variant yet. But some parts you might want to consider:
     
    CPU: Intel i5-4670K (AMD FX-8350 would work if you overclock) CPU Cooler: Pretty much anything except the stock cooler Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z87X-D3H or MSI Z87-G55 Video Card: GTX 770 or R9 280X; try to get EVGA, Asus, or MSI. Storage: 240-256 GB SSD and 2 TB hard drive (Crucial M500 and WD Green are a good combo) Power Supply: 600-750w, rated 80+ Bronze; try Seasonic, Corsair, XFX, Silverstone, or Antec. Case: BitFenix Shinobi, Corsair 300R, or NZXT Tempest 410 Rest is up to you.
