I am not sure if it is available in SG.

I have Windows 7 64-bit on hand.

I see most pricelists dun have that model. Anyway for semi-modular, the 3 cables are gonna be used anyway, so dun really matter if it is modular or not. Unless you are gonna buy sleeved cables which are very ex.

Someone recommended that model to me.

I do for full modular PSU due to better cable management that all.

Not that true... Modular psu oso gt cables attached frm psu to parts, same as semi modular. Is your skill in tying the cables to your chassis, and not the modular part doing that for u.

Not meant to be rude but if u no skill or bo put in effort in making gd cable management, give u modular oso no point.

I spent like 1-2 hrs in trying to make the back as neat as i can, and without any cables sticking out as much as possible.

Going for GTX 670 means downgrading my GPU.

Nope it's an improvement. GTX 670 has always been one or half a tier above GTX 760.

Thanks for the info.

PC Themes is only offering 30 months warranty for MSI GTX 670 2GB Power Edition instead of the normal 3 years.

Yup but you only loses 6 months for substantial savings and better performance. :)

Based on MSI website, it seems MSI GTX 760 HAWK (1111MHz) has a higher core than MSI GTX 670 POWER EDITION OC (1019MHz) without overclocking yet.

You cant basically just see base clock and determine which is better.
