Hi Guys,

Kindly advise if the setup is ok for my new rig before I make my purchase.


Mobo + CPU Bundle
MSI B85-G43 Gaming (BUNDLE)
Intel® Core™ i5-4670 BUNDLE - SGD 408
Intel® Core™ i7-4771 BUNDLE - SGD 528

Price from Tradepac

Undecided from i5, or the i7. Is there any big differences between the 2?

PSU
Corsair RM Series RM650 - 650 Watt 80 PLUS Gold Certified Fully Modular PSU

HDD (Amazon)
WD Green 2 TB Hard Drive
3.5 Inch, SATA III, 64MB Cache - WD20EZRX SGD 102

SSD (Amazon)
Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series
250 GB - SGD 169.147
500GB - SGD 334.283

RAM
Corsair Vengeance Pro 1600MHz 16GB(2x8GB)

Casing (Undecided)
But eyeing fractal design (Any suggestion/advise on which one to get?)

Planning to reuse my SAPPHIRE HD 7850 2GB GDDR5 so no need to buy a new one.

Is there anything I left out?

Kindly advise bros.

Thanks!

For gaming, streaming of videos, music and multitasking

Able to run 2 games at 1 go without any problem right? E.g. Diablo 3 and Dota 2.

Am a gamer myself so would want to make this upgrade last quite awhile for all future game releases
