New desky in the house

New academic year is about to begin.. My retarded brother is furthering his study in MMU too, doing Diploma in Business Administration.
I got some cash from Daddy to buy a new desktop since i got my lame+slow+very slow to boot the windows HP pavilion given to my bro.. He planned to send over rm2k only but i insist more 500bucks because graphic card is needed what..

2500? too little for me.. budget is very tight so i have to minimize the cost of each component.
if u have problem searching for cheap computer accessories and component in melaka, i suggest you Stygix, they have all the cheapest stuff there, dont compare to lowyatt la..

Planned to have Core i5 actually but its rm650 so i decide to choose i3 model 530 2.93GHz, cost me m378.


Gigabyte always be my choice when it comes to buying motherboard.
This is the one
GA-H55M-USB3
comes with LGA1156 socket and the first ever Integrated graphic on chip. And it can support USB 3.0, 10times faster than USB 2.0
Ultra durable, Energy saver and lowers system temperature.
RM395

2GB 1333MHz DDR3 Ram. Rm172. wish to add 2GB more if there are extra moneyssss

1TB WD Caviar Green. Enough For HD video and latest 3D games. RM249


The only things that unsatisfied me is the graphic card. Stygix dont have GT 240 1GB GDDR5 card which cost only rm368, so i have to take GT 240 1GB GDDR3, rm340. Only rm28 you can have GDDR5, sigh.
And it supports HDMI..

Finally i can own a HDMI LCD monitor, you can connect to PS3.. will own one PS3, maybe.
Samsung B2230H 22' HDMI. Say no to gaming laptop. RM545

And Cooler Master 310 side transparent casing rm135
500W power supply Rm165

Feel guilty i didn't learn how to connect and attach the component in CPU from my friend, so i have to pay extra rm50 to the shop for this..

hopefully the whole system can last for 3 or 4 years..

P/S: went to gym yesterday and can feel the soreness at every joints
