Unless otherwise stated, buy at PC Themes, #04-15, and ask for discounts. DIY yourself. If you can't into DIY, get PC Themes to assemble for you for a fee.

Notes:

1) This rig is capable of playing Battlefield 4 and Skyrim at max settings in 1080p.

2) As you have a significant amount of budget left over, you may want to take a walk around SLS and check out the casings displayed there and select an ATX casing that you like.

3) Got Mastercard? Consider buying the casing, the GPU and the SSD from Lazada.com on a Monday and get 10% discounts when you pay with a Mastercard. Do note that discounts are capped at $25 per transaction and it is best that you buy these items seperately.

Just note that for lazada discount via their app, it would be 1 single use per app. So once u used the $20 and $100 coupon, it cannot be used again under the same phone. Go use ur parent's phone to get another $20 off ur case or ssd.

Do not put ssd and case into 1 order as discount is still $20. Bo hua. Seperate them as both are alrdy above $100.
