[WTA] 18-70mm OR 35mm 1.8g?

RobustRobot — Tue, 27 Mar 2012 04:12:34 +0800

my current gear atm is:
D90 + SB700 + 50mm 1.8g

i found out later that 50mm range were not that much useful as walk around lenses with DX. I was planning to get my hand on 35 f1.8g end of this week but now.. i was wondering maybe i should get 1 zoom lenses instead of relying on both 35 and 50 only.

with the lowest budget i had my eyes looking on 18-70 used. but i had no experience with the lens quality. just read a couple of review about the lens.
with MYR600 to spend i think.. i do not have much choice do i?
either settle down with ( 35 + 50 both prime ) OR ( 18-70 + 50 zoom and prime ) @ other option?

any thought on these guys?

[WTA] Recommend best graphic card

RobustRobot — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 15:12:50 +0800

hi guys, planning to upgrade graphic card.

my current setup is:
ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT
AMD Phenom II X2 550
MSI mainboard 870S-G46 ( MS-7599 )
DDR3 4096 MBytes GAMING RAM
450W PSU Cooler Master

My budget is below < rm300. Would you guys recommend a good graphic card? i am inclined to play Dragon Nest SEA with full maximize option as the current GC only manage to play it on average setting for the fluid FPS.

I would also consider any used GC if the condition are good :l

degree in adminstrative/management?

RobustRobot — Thu, 02 Dec 2010 21:43:47 +0800

hi guys, i plan to further my studies from dip to degree.
AFAIK management courses are suitable for those who like to work under company b4 gain enough experiences and probably start own business later on and its also very demanding in any job market ( correct me if im wrong ) .

i had been looking around for management courses around kl and i found out only a certain Uni are offering it. i got my eye on KLMU ( used to be called cosmopoint ) since its nearer for me to go back and forth daily from my home.

i still looking for other place but since i'm not that experienced with good Uni, college that offering the subject, i hope u guys can share some light on this matter or maybe a suggestion .
i highly appreciate and need your help
