Need advice for budget pc

sickworms — Fri, 26 Oct 2012 18:11:19 +0800

Hi !

I need help / advice for new budget pc.
Had a 2 year old pc, now need buy new budget pc for light MMO gaming.
I will be reusing old 22inch wide screen LCD monitor, speaker, keyboard, mouse, 1TB harddrive and DVD burner.
My Budget is RM1500 to buy a CPU.
Im given 3 choices by a local computer shop.
I've checked internet for their specs, and they are OK for light MMO gaming, as I do not game on high detail, and i dont mind gaming on low detail without effects or shadows, as long as i have around 50-60 FPS or smooth gameplay, then im ok.
I need 8GB of RAM because of I'm doing alot of work / office production which requires alot of RAM.

Option 1
Intel Core i3 3220 RM385
Asus P8Z77-M RM339
Kingston DDR3 1333Mhz 4GB RM60
Kingston DDR3 1333Mhz 4GB RM60
Sapphire HD7750 RM359
Cooler Master eXt 500W RM169
Cooler Master Elite 372 RM159
Total = RM1531

Option 2
AMD FM-1 A6 3850 RM398
Gigabyte A75-D3H RM329
Kingston DDR3 1333Mhz 4GB RM60
Kingston DDR3 1333Mhz 4GB RM60
Sapphire HD7750 RM359
Cooler Master eXt 500W RM169
Cooler Master Elite 372 RM159
Total = RM1534

Option 3
AMD FX4100 RM368
Asus M5A97 RM359
Kingston DDR3 1333Mhz 4GB RM60
Kingston DDR3 1333Mhz 4GB RM60
Sapphire HD7750 RM359
Cooler Master eXt 500W RM169
Cooler Master Elite 372 RM159
Total = RM1534

The only difference for these 3 options are their Processor and Motherboard.
The prices are roughly 2 weeks ago, so the price might change, but not much.
Please help me to choose 1 out of these 3 option, and if possible give a reason behind it, thank you.

I've heard that 2 piece of graphic card HD7750 can crossfire without needing the crossfire bridge to link them together, as they only require to link using PCIe slot, is it true ?
IF it is true, then which Option from the above is the best option for crossfire 2 graphic card HD7750 ?

Thank you in advance to anyone who can help me with these questions.
