Hi All,

I'm planning to get a new comp, probably get it from pct.

Hmm my budget will be around 1.2k bah. Dun need monitor, dvdrom, windows, mouse/keyboard, speakers.

My usage is moderate gaming (now only play dota 2).

Any recommends for setup.

Thanks.

Any preference for colour schemes? e.g. Black with White/Red/Blue/Green/etc...
Need WiFi adapter?

PC to be placed on table or floor?
Which internet provider plan and router are you using now?
Is your home in a relatively new apartment built in the past 8 years?
How far is your upcoming PC located from the router?
Any obstruction between path?

CM N400 lol. Corsair SPEC series or even the 230T are overpriced junk.


Of Course it is nice.
