[CatLuVer]

Hi guys, my pc finally got spoilt after 5yrs++.

Usage: Most of the time surf net, Watch videos, anime, super sentai.. etc.

I very seldom play game on pc nowadays, even if I play I only play games like Maplestory, Dota 1, those old C&C games like generals.


I need a complete system with OS, DVD writer, and preferably with ssd.

I don't need Monitor, Mouse, keyboard. Budget $1k, . Pls advise, thanks

MoneyFace...

It seems that you recommend the win casing quite often, but I cant see in TP price list and I cant find the win casing website too.....

May I know if I have a SFX PSU 450w, can it fit into the casing?
The casing already come with the 300w PSU or is just a promo for the bundle?

Im curious whether the PSU u recommend is a custom PSU which my SFX 450w PSU cant fit in and whats the dimension of the casing...
Just to add some questions, hope TS dun mind..

As of last week TP still do have the USB 3.0 version of In Win BK644 on display. It seems like In Win has removed that BK644 model from their website and maybe discontinued soon.

Anyway, In Win BK644 already comes with the aforementioned 80 Plus 300W SFX PSU that is a FSP OEM product. You also wouldn't have any issue swapping the PSU out for your 450W one since SFX form factor dimensions are pretty standard.

Maybe IT this coming end of Feb has some promotion?

What is IT Fairs when SLS pricing is already at a good pricing lol.

IT Fairs are all gimmick promotions.

 

[Hailgod]

For your usage, 4gb ram, intel hd graphics and standard hdd is enough. You can save your money since you dont need that performance.
