Is this good enough for 3D gaming ?

Intel i5-4570 3.2Ghz + Asus H87M-Plus (Mainboard)
match with
Asus GTX660 DCII

Any advise ?

Thanks, Asus GTX760 DC2OC2GB will cost around $430... hmm.. have to consider.

Any particular reason from 660 to 760 ?

379 la..... say 300++ its like below 350 lol....

buy gigabyte if you casing can fit will be better.... msi is another alternative depend where you stay.... both extra $30 for extra 1 year warranty.

On hp mah. Lazy to check actual price. Just remembered that I saw Palit brand below $400..

 

[iKoori]

Yeah go for GTX760. Those recommending 660~660ti sure they want clear stock.

I got no issues with Palit brand of GPU... Unless you wanna sell off your GPU within 2 to 3 years loh..

My current casing is CoolerMaster Centurion 5.

Guess can use back Giga / MSI or Palit.

Only Palit is cheapest and have longest warranty ?

Leadtek cheapest.. Palit decent pricing.. Warranty one year lesser than other brands I think..

If not gonna re-sale GPU in the next few years, Palit brand quite hardy imo..

Edit: Actually you can go for Asrock 85M-Pro4 mobo for lower cost and transfer that savings into a better GPU..

 

[jason]

Asrock is lower end.. dont wan lah.

 

[wuweiz]

Asrock is lower end.. dont wan lah.

No lah.. Asrock is catching up.. Or rather has almost caught up le..

Asus is more for extreme over-clockers bah.. Designed to take "beatings"..

Asrock more for general users who doesn't really over-clock or torture their CPU/Mobo bah....

 

[jason]

My current PSU is 430W ... do I need to change ?

 

[Ark Law]

Asrock is lower end.. dont wan lah.

Is okay one lah...don't think too much

 

[jason]

Ok ... almost all done except .. Power Supply .. and which shop is more reliable nowadays ?
