i am using mio router . as for the distance . its about 10m-15m apart . so i just stick with the sharkoon t5 fans :)

For budget usb adapter, can consider TP Link WN722N High Gain @ $26.

hmmm. i will be switching on for long hours . i dont know is it enough :)

If you are afraid stock cooler is not good enough to keep your temp down, can consider Xigmatek Gaia @ $38.

Pci cards whr got easier to change when spoilt as compared to usb de.

Plus pci card mayb too squeeze with your gpu and cause overheating.

I think i will get the usb one . Btw is powercolor gpu good? I like nv hear before . Care to let me know more? :)

Copy paste from my previous post. :D
Powercolor is a budget brand. Therefore their prices are more competitive, and IMO it offers more value for money and even the warranty period is same as other reputable brand such as MSI, Asus and Gigabyte. I read a couple of reviews on their non-reference design, PCS+. It performs pretty well in cooling and runs rather quiet too.

MSI and Asus GPUs are reputable brands and ensure their GPUs are of top quality build. Not to forget, their prices are also top quality prices , especially Asus. Example, Asus 7950 Top costs around $523, for that price, I could have gotten myself a Powercolor 7970 V3 @ $496. Performance is one level higher, costs cheaper but of course quality wise may not be as good as Asus.

By the way, the gpu I recommended is a reference design, not their PCS version.

PCS+ stands for professional cooling system. It's powercolor's own cooling solution for their graphic cards. Just like asus direct cuii and msi twin frozr cooler.

And 7770 confirm can play nba2k13 on 1080p. I rmb playing nba2k12 on 1080p on my old 5770.

Definitely can. I don't think NBA games are that graphic demanding.

CPU & Mobo: i5-3450 & Gigabyte B75M-D3V @ $317
Free 4GB ram (upgrade 8gb)
ODD: Samsung DVD RW @ $22
HDD: Hitachi Deskstar 500GB @ ~$60
GPU: Powercolor 7770 1GB (PCS+) @ $166*
Case: Sharkoon T5 @ $63
PSU: FSP Raider 450W @ $68*
OS: Windows 7 Home 64 bit OEM @ $110

is this setting okay?
btw i cant find CPU & Mobo: i5-3450 & Gigabyte B75M-D3V @ $317 on their paper . is under bundle or something? for my budget i only can get win7 home 64bit only right?
and upgrade to 8gb ram need additional how much?
Mobo is get A4 or A8?? any difference ? :)

It's from Tradepac pricelist.
for my budget i only can get win7 home 64bit only right?
Are you used to the new interface used by Windows 8? If i'm not wrong, windows 8 costs around $160.
and upgrade to 8gb ram need additional how much?
Add another $34-$40.

What do you mean motherboard get A4 or A8? I think you are refering to A4 or A8 AMD APU? Those 2 APUs has better integrated graphic than i5-3450 but their cpu performance is not as good as intel i5. In any case, the integrated gpu doesn't affect you because you are buying a discrete graphic card to handle your games.
