[ShinCoL]

Really no idea for about GPU, too many brand, scare get a lousy brand like gigabyte

 

[ShinCoL]

gigabyte i didnt use b4 but only heard noisy but fast n cool . msi i did got a artifect problem one but is a Ati card so duno is software or hardware issue . Only Asus never had give me problem . Anyway nvidia is mostly no issue , Amd is cheap and good but still have some software problem

From what i see h81 and h97 is just a m2 ssd slot diff , for putting in gfx card is the same performace le . i buy h97 board now feel is a waste cos i wont intend to buy m2 ssd , not even a normal ssd lol

 

[ShinCoL]

Any good recommend shop intro ?

i feel 4690+ h81 and a gtx 970 is perfect for gaming under $1400 budget . u doesnt need ssd now actually . h97 board really no use for gaming , h81 do the same job

Hey shin. Want to point out that price diff for i5 4690 is not worth the minimal performance over 4460.

Motherboard a as rock b85 is good enuff. A h97 is only useful for raid. Psu 500w enough. Is just wasted money you could be spending on what matters most, a graphics card. I highly suggest a 970 of any brand other than evga. Also a ssd if can.

The best gtx970 brand at the moment.

 

[ShinCoL]
