Dear SIFU ,

My Gigabyte Motherboard and Xigmatek 500W die on me last week due to lightning strike .

Brought to the shop which i purchase from , diagnose got burnt mark - warranty not covering.

I have no choice but to purchase new board and PSU

I'm left with AMD Phenom 2 955 BE , 4 GB of ram , Sapphire 4890 1GB , DVD-room, 1TB HDD which is reusable . CM 690 casing

Please advise me a motherboard and a decent PSU.

The shop did propose me some replacement model. Was wondering if there is other option since i have limited budget .

I wish to lower the cost as much as i can .

EDIT :

My expected Budget at RM500

I wish to upgrade my phone actually dont want to touch any of this amount. Wish if it just consume rm200 will be great >.<

Gaming , HON , internet surfing, Starcraft 2 . Mainly

WTA: Help On Rig Selection

kokhoe — Sun, 27 Mar 2011 19:28:22 +0800

I'm Upgrading my Rig . Going to re-use back my DVD writer ,2 Black caviar HDD ,CM 690 Casing & 4 gb DDR3 Ram . I'm using 24" LCD monitor at resolution of 1920x1080 .
i'm playing SC2 , crysis and using it for watching HD video while surfing n doing microsoft office work . I'm not going to SLI for future . SATA 3 n USB 3.0 function will be great to have it if possible.

i need some recommendation on Custom Cooler for CPU , MOBO , Graphic Card & power supply.

I'm looking for Best Bang For Buck .Even if i'm having good budget but if there is a better option at lower price . i would prefer it .i dont mind if i have to expand my budget if its much more worth to it .

going to get I5 2500k ( going to OC )

Custom Cooler budget 200 - 300 ( I was looking for option but there is Scythe Ninja 3 - CM v6 which better ?)

Got any good MOBO to recommend which compatible with the CPU?Budget around 350 - 600 . (gigabyte good or msi?)

True Power 600W or 650 W Modular with budget around 200 - 350 .

Graphic Card (prefer Nvidia) Budget around 600 - 1000

Plan to use SSD in the future when its worth to buy ( now so expensive ).

Did i miss anything ?
thanks all Sifu reply to it
