So, I’ve been rummaging through the Internet for reviews and whatnot, for nearly 2 weeks, so as to get the best bang for buck components. Apparently, my father won’t listen to my reasoning, so I’ll probably get an earful when he gets home. But oh well, it’s a worthy investment in my opinon, considering I have nothing else to do at home and spend most of the time with my PC, this will be good for the next 3-5 years, that’s <$1 a day :V
For those who’s interested in the process of the rig building, I basically visited the following sites (not limited to):
www.anandtech.com
www.tomshardware.com
www.overclockersclub.com
overclock.net forums
hardwarezone (SG) forums
There is something I have to mention, and will strongly recommend. Instead of spending hours of your day shopping in Sim Lim Square (SLS), you can alternatively contact Ivan or PM him – fortran on HWZ Singapore. He will not only recommend you based on your budget/needs, he will also advise you if you ask questions. I spent a lot of time asking a whole lot of noob questions, but he was rather patient with me. To add, he is friendly and knows his stuff.
He arrived at my place before 10A.M, which was the time he said he would arrive. For a person located on the other side of the island, I must say, he is really punctual and did a good job finding his way to my address
Again, he passed me a power chord, and advised that I use the one he provided, because this draws more power than my previous HP OEM; better safe than sorry. I am thankful for that. He also insisted that he help me with plugging in the cables, and kudos to that for the initiative.
Basically, I have 0 complain when it comes to his services. I give him a two thumbs up for being awesome, and again STRONGLY RECOMMEND anyone who is deciding to get a PC to purchase from him!
