Thanks guys.

I am buying for stocks trading and video watching like 4k video.

Below 1k will be good enough, i play flash games nowadays, not into gaming anymore.

Btw, which of these graphic card is better? I lost touch with hardware stuff already.

AMD Radeon R5 435 graphics card with 2GB GDDR5

NVIDIA GeForce GT730 2G DDR5

For your usage, there's no "better". In fact, onboard Intel graphics is more than sufficient.

Is it true that slim line desktop spoils quicker than the usual bulky or tower desktop due to bad ventilation?

The common conception of poor ventilation on SFF system.

Having a big @ss casing is not guaranteed of better ventilation nor lesser chance of breakdown due to thermal issue. There are many SFF/Slimline system in many offices running day in day out without issue, no different from system using bag @ss casing.

With SFF/Slimline casing without gaming GFX, thermal problem are usually far less than big ass casing with high power, CF/SLi GFX.

LOL! FYI most service center are handled by outsource.
Up to TS whether:

IT Savvy enough - DIY much cheaper than branded but
troublesome will be a challenge as well as RMA
IT incline - OEM/Branded, any problem either carry in
or onsite
So far I think only Asus got Onsite support but a lot
people complain Asus service (Vendor) not very good.

Even lately I did not buy Asus laptop, fear of CMI and sucky service.
Nothing against Asus but just Google seriously can see a batch of complains.

That usually not true.
As DIY usually did not count the required OS license, etc.
If you factor in services, unless you are able to PD. DIY case would be worse as you may not even know where to start if there is a problem.

How old is the system?

Ever clear out all the dusts on the PSU, GFX and processor HSF?

Nope. My HDD crashed once and i keep getting blue screen, don't know why, especially when i play two videos at the same time.

Is it because of ram? My pc ram is about 4gb.
