Actually, I've done some thinking about the price of this rig and I think I can get an R9 280

I'd go for that.

I'd go for that.

Financial problems caused me to only be able to buy certain parts at a certain time...

So then it becomes a project to last around 6-8 months.

Now this is my planned rig;

  • Asus Z170M-Plus
  • Intel Core i7 6700K
  • G.Skill Ripjaws4 Red 2x4GB DDR4
  • Cooler Master Seidon 120v
  • Asus Strix GTX 960 4GDDR5
  • WD Black 1TB + Seagate Barracuda 1TB (Owned)
  • Kingston HyperX Fury 120GB
  • Corsair CX600M
  • Corsair Carbide 200R
  • Steelseries Siberia Raw
  • Logitech G502 Proteus Core
  • CM Quickfire TK Black

Im from Malaysia..... Wooooo!!! The land where 1 USD is 4.33 MYR...


PCPartPicker wont do for me...  :(


here's where I do my searching for stuff (Local Market and prices are in MYR): Lelong.my

Spend a bit more and get a PSU that can handle heat... check out the PSU whitelist in my sig.

Switch the 502 for a G402 and then with the money you saved try to get a Seasonic unit or something that is better than that Corsair.

You called the PSU a Corsair V650. I assumed you meant the VS series which is subpar. The Cooler Master V-series is quite good if that is what you meant.

I would recommend a better pair of headphones if possible since you are doing video production but otherwise solid looking build.

What pair would you recommend?

I would recommend the ath-m20x.

Do you think I should utilize the M.2 slot and switch out the HyperX Fury for a Plextor M.2 2280 128GB?

Or a Samsung 850 EVO?
