Hi All,

Please recommend best value 23-24 inch monitor for web browsing, movie and light gaming (FIFA). I have read up the forum but could not get much info on best 23-24 monitor. I have shortlisted a few around the price of RM500-600 to replace my old 15'' samsung monitor. I hope that this upgrade will be future proof. Please recommend some monitor and also where to get it cheapest. Thanks guys

1) Viewsonic VX2363Smhl 23'' RM529
2) Dell S2316H 23'' RM549
3) LG 23MP68VQ 23" RM499

Most likely between LG and viewsonic. Which one is better?

Hi Guys,

Totally noob in GC. Currently I do not have any GC on my system. I'll wait for new 7k series from ATI or Nvidia before upgrading GC. Only using the integrated GPU from the processor right now but I do have a spare X1650. Is the HD3000 more powerful than the X1650? Or I can use the X1650....FYI the X1650 do not need external power to power it My monitor is Samsung LCD 1280 x 1024. Thanks for info.

CPU Temp

Hi guys,

Would like to check whether my CPU temp is accurate because I suspect the temp sensor got problem.

CPU: i5-2500K
Mobo: Asus P8Z68 Pro/Gen 3

My temp reading according to Ai Suite for CPU is usually around 28 C and mobo is 33-34 C. I didn't OC, just normal surfing and some paper work. Is this normal or some problem with temp sensor cos normally I see from other user idle is around 30++ C. Please help to verify. Thanks.
