Building a PC. Budget: RM2,000-2,100

Hemic — Fri, 14 Oct 2016 21:07:45 +0800

Hi guys, just like I mentioned in the title, I hope to get a PC in the coming month.
But the problem is I have only little knowledge about computers.
Hence, I hope to get your guidance and suggestion on building this RIG successfully.

Thank you and it will be much appreciated!

P.S. its for graphic design student

PC went to sleep when playing high graphic games

Hemic — Fri, 15 Apr 2016 01:27:50 +0800

Just build a rig at December 2015 from Low Yat.

Specification:
Intel Core i5 6500
MSI H110M Pro-VH
Kingston 8GB DDR4 2133MHz Value RAM
Sapphire R9 380 4GB
WD Blue 1TB HDD
Seasonic S12II 620W
Thermaltake Versa H25

What seem to be the problem is when I play high graphic games like Fallout 4 and Dark Souls 3, it will go to sleep mode in like few minutes, sometimes 5, sometimes 10 or longer, but it will definitely go to sleep mode as I can clearly diminish the sound of my fan going from loud to no sound after my screen went black.

The first game I played with this rig is Fallout 4, where it occasionally goes to sleep and I do not know how to wake the PC and was forced to restart it with the restart button. Eventually, I stop playing the game so I didn't care about the problem as I thought it was the game's problem.

Until today, I have Dark Souls 3(my favorite game) downloaded on my PC, what makes me frustrated is the AUTO-SLEEP mode takes on my CPU during my game play.
Initially I thought it was merely the game's issue, but after countless of sleep modes, I have came to realized that it was a SLEEP.

I hope anyone out there could be able to help me with this problem as I am no expert on this field and have little experience only. Please guide me step by step and tell me what to do.

tldr;
Help me on fixing this problem where my CPU goes to sleep when I'm playing high graphic games like Fallout 4 and Dark Souls 3.

Thank you and much appreciated!

Images doesn't show on my browser

I think this might be a stupid question, but I do not have any knowledge of computer stuffs.
Maybe this is a simple thing, but I've search through the Internet and could not find any answers.
I do not know if this is my browser's problem or Facebook's problem.

Or is it the problem of flash player? (Sorry, doesn't actually know that does flash does)

I have recently bought a new computer and installed windows 7 into it and quickly upgraded it to windows 10.
I have same problem on both browsers Microsoft Edge and Google Chrome.

Results from the internet mostly tell me to do this on my Chrome:
Chrome > Settings > Show Advance Settings > Content Settings > Show All Images(tick it)

It's frustrating look at no pictures when you just wanna scroll your Facebook.

Edit: The picture attached clearly shows my current issue.

Please help me!
Much appreciated.

Hemic — Mon, 21 Dec 2015 19:13:56 +0800

Hi guys, I have absolutely no experience or knowledge of computer stuffs and I am to getting myself a gaming PC at Lowyat, but before that I need some advice on which part I'm getting before heading to Lowyat.
Hope you guys are willingly to help me on building this PC with your advice and suggestions.

I only need a CPU as I already have other accessories such as mouse, keyboard, monitor, etc.

Budget:
RM3000

Type of PC expected:
Gaming

Purchasing Location:
Lowyat

Games I will playing:
Usually all of the new games that are coming out such as
- Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3
- Fallout 4
- Assassin's Creed Syndicate
- Dishonored 2
- Dark Souls 3

Some requirements I need for the PC:
- 500GB of hard drive
- I have a DVD ROM on my old rig, guess I can just get it from the old CPU and put it onto the new CPU

Well, I really hope you guys can help me in building this PC so that is can meet up the specification requirements of the stated games.
Thank You!

Edit: Have no interest in overclocking
