Very tight budget gaming pc

NoTrollOK

I need a Mid-High end Gaming PC ASAP

I live in Malaysia. Where's the currency always dropping MASSIVELY.

Brand doesn't matter except for EVGA (Not Availible in Malaysia. Yet)

The budget is USD900 and not more than that even a dollar

Things that need in this build with the money given is

1.CPU

2.GPU

3.RAM

4.Motherboard

5.Case

6.PSU

7.HDD (or pair it with a SSD)

8.Monitor Must 1080p 60hz IPS (inch doesn't matter)

9.Keyboard and Mouse

I don't want OS in the list because I have a copy of Windows 8.1.

Din't use it because I was thinking to upgrade my Laptop.

Until one day my Laptop was leaved in the rain. While Active.

Not the bad choice of PSU, but Someone will probably give a better option.

I have the old Sirtec version of the TT Berlin 630w and it's great,  the new one made by CWT with 80+ bronze rating sucks.

Their quality is mediocre at best - my Smart SE 630W had coil whine, some weird buzzing and arcing sounds - replaced it asap.

In fact it's made by CWT, while London, Paris and the old Germany were great, and no, it's not mediocre, you just got a model made by CWT.

Well, the ToughPower units compare price wise to SeaSonic's S12G series (one I use now) and the SeaSonic unit has much better noise and ripple suppression as well as a longer warranty.

You're not getting my point. On the lower end models (Old Germany series) the price/performance was great and it had no problem whatsoever, in fact those and London and Paris are good PSUs at least. :/

No idea about them, all I know is Smart SE (second edition? idk) are utter crap. So are the Litepower units to my knowledge. Simply go with a SeaSonic M12II or S12II and call it a safe day :P

But for example the old germany series was a lot cheaper than seasonic, and still was very good.

Well, like you said "the old" series. New ones are each worse than the other.

I use to think everything was exaggerated but after I had my fair share of issues I think it's not that much of a made up ghost story.

London and Paris are still good, and until a few weeks ago they had even more products that were great price/perf. so saying "thermalfake psus are bad" is just misleading!!!
