I've compared the fastest processor in the Core M series with an i7-5500U as the Core M only has 2C/4T. They both operate very closely in performance as we see the boost clocks are very similar...where the Core M is desirable is power consumption so you laptop will run cooler 15W of the core i7 and 4.5W for the core M


If you have specific models numbers, please share.
but i noticed the core m is mostly used on ultra thin pc

it will be to keep heat output low and conserve battery power.

Motherboard : Asus H110i, a mini-itx motherboard that features DDR4 memory compatibility and supports upto 32GB using 2 DIMM slots, UEFI Bios, Fan Xpert 2+, Intel 1151 (i3/i5/i7) support with Turbo boost Technology, 6 USB 2.0, 4 USB3.0 ports, 4x SATA 6GB/s ports. With an excellent price point, it fits very well within the budget.
What's the price of the motherboard

GPU: AMD RX470 - This was a tough one to choose but the missus was sold with AMD's new and improved tech support and companies development plans (shrugs). The card isn't much slower than the RX480 but the price point was very good and I'd recommend this over the RX480 for 1080P gaming. This card by Saphirre is an overclocked version and sports a core clock of 932Mhz and boosts to 1216 Mhz, 4GB VRAM@ 7000Mhz, is VR + HDR + Freesync + Crossfire Ready and DX12 optimised on the FinFET 14nm.
Why do you recommend 470 over 480 for 1080p. And does 480 have an overall edge over 470??

Comparing the RX 480 4GB and the RX 470 4GB both from sapphire and using Battlefield 1 as a benchmark at 1080P, the RX 480 was only 8% faster but cost 20% more. Similar performance at 1080p for other titles too.

EK-XRES 100 DDC Pump including Reservoir - The Pump and reservoir is responsible for pumping the liquid cooling through the radiators and waterblocks that will be installed in PC. Although we had cheaper options like the XSPC Ion and the Magicool DCP450 pump and res combos, the combo by EK-XRES was chosen for smaller size in this mini-itx build to avoid any compatibility issues.

Note: the watercooling bits are optional, the core components can be cooled using heatsinks and fans they originally ship with.

Re: Watercooled PC Build For The Missus by AKBliv010(m): 8:29pm On Oct 20, 2016
XPSC LCD monitor + water temperature sensor : this will be used to monitor the temperature of the coolant at all times. More of an impulse buy smiley but it's cheap as chips

Can you get these PC parts here in Nigeria or is it only through online shopping?

I received a rendered image of what the case will look like when modified by the manufacturers in black and white...I'm really excited about the case.

Make your research and give me feedback about Asphalt 8 AIRBOURNE being a PC Game (Windows 10) or not.

It's not nice speaking that way to someone you don't know okay. Be more civil. No offence taken.

The cops raided my house on the 20th of last month. I was arrested that same day, my gaming rig - sorry laptop, was confiscated. I just came out. Long story short, my system is still there. When I get it back, I will test it. But big kudos to CPY.
