I check sgpcmart & mynextcom but both seems to be abandon. online seller in SG doesn't seem to have i3-6320 except videopro(bundled with mobo) but they are not responing to my qns. if get it from newegg, the price will be $265.59(incl. delivery) price range for i5-6500 seems to be ard $299+ don't know whether worth it. any1 knows the price for i3-6320 if getting from retail shop.

the processor number is so weird...nv seen this kind of chips b4 all sg have was 6100 or 6300, but if u want and newegg have den get it from them. still im not sure why u wanna get that chip?

either you get 212evo (US 30) + ram (US 55) + some other $40 worth of filler stuff to USD 125 for amazon free shipping
you can downgrade the 212evo to T4 (US 23) to further the savings

or you don't buy the 212evo at all
local price $60 not worth it

the intel cpu bundled with stock cooler , it is guaranteed that performance
it doesn't matter it run 5 years at 70 d celcius or 85 d celcius ...
the cpu chip will work for you that number of years


ssd can choose sata3 version to save money

power supply don't get corsair ... it is for americans

bad choice to get it from newegg

above I already say amazon get the ram if clock up minimum 125 in cart for free shipping
since the 55 US dollars = 77 sing
same price as the gskill 2133 just that Crucial brand on amazon no fancy heatsink (not needed for low speed ddr4)

pct themes pricelist the cpu + motherboard 443
443-278cpu-108mobo-68.5shipping-37gst
you are paying $48 MORE buying from newegg and no warranty for motherboard from USA

Price aside, if there is any problem, Newegg will not lift a finger to help.

This is what I finalized. I will just use Integrated graphics but in future will get AMD GPU. mobo 100 series are quite new, can't get much infos on the stability & quality of the different brands except for the Z170 series. Not too sure if gigabyte is a good choice in terms of durability? Tks

GIGABYTE GA-H170-D3H + i5-6500
Superflower Leadex Silver 90+ Full Modular 550W
Sandisk Plus 240GB SSD
SAMSUNG 850 PRO SSD 128GB
CRYORIG H7
Kingston/G.Skill 16GB(2x8) 2133 DDR4 - most price list listed doesn't have DDR4 2133
Phanteks Eclipse P400(Black)

Places most likely to buy:
Mobo+CPU & RAM - SLS
Chassis, PSU, CPU cooler - Lazada
SSD - Qoo10
Monitor most likely to get - Dell S2316H $229
If I'm not wrong Lazada seems to have xtra 10% off for Mastercard on every Mon. Will wait until Mon to order the monitor, Chassis have to wait until they restock the black model at the end of the mth(replied on their fb)

well for amd RX 480 will be out in the market on the 29th of june (take its as 30th). And gigabyte is a reliable brand like asus. abit premium but still not too costly.

as for the ddr4 maybe u can try looking into all shops price list. definitely there is 1 shop selling that ram timing.

lastly for lazada monday have no more promo, i think u mistaken with some other promo. but if u are a dbs bank card holder, u can enjoy the discount tmr. if u pay by app u can get 12% off, but max cap is $20.

Why 2 ssds? Just get a 250gb and a hdd for storage.

Os better get retail. Next time can install onto another pc if needed.

this is what he commented when i 1st asked him :

I prefer to have OS on a single disk & not mix with other installed software.

 

[shadow84]

Ram & ssd can get from lazada as well. Please skip sandisk plus. Go for zotac MLC better.

Already have more than enough external storage, so the 240gb ssd can be use to install games & downloaded stuffs.
I've read that after Win XP, microsoft not selling retail ver. of OS anymore so as to curb pirated OS although not too sure whether if its true.

since you recommended, will take Zotac into consideration. If I can find the RAM in lazada, I will get it from there.

Just bought win 10 home recently. There are OEM and another version which is 10dollars more expensive.....which leads me to believe it's the retail version.

I don't think that the Retail version is another $10 extra.

Gigabyte is fine for your mobo. But why not 850 Evo instead of Pro for OS drive?

Also, I think buying RAM from Amazon is cheaper, cheapest 2x8GB is ~80SGD, but only if you can wait, and buying other things to make up for the 125USD free shipping, then nvm, buy from sls.

Lazada has 12% off on DBS/POSB Fridays if you have their cards and you use their mobile app.
