Hi bros,

Can help me design a PC with specs following the purposes stated.

1) Small casing form if possible
2) 2 TB hard disk space, possibly with a separate small sized SSD for windows boot up usage only (not sure if SSD still ex now)
3) dedicated graphic card (aim to play call of duty releasing in Nov)
4) 8/16gb ram
5) i7 CPU
6) any PSU?
7) Can recommend a place to buy all these with assembly services?
For monitor i intend to get a dell 24" one..
any parts i miss out?

8) or any other all-in-one PC/monitor model that could fit all these purposes (wife say to save space and get one with cpu one :( )

Thanks alot bro for recommendation

$1000
go for mitx build
get small GTX 1060 with single fan
should fit in just nice
want to play latest game, hard to do with $1k...
unless u ok with top game at middle or low setting
think there is gtx 1070 with single fan, smaller size to fit mitx casing.

1060 can play at top settings for now. In maybe 1-2 years time will have to down details. The biggest problem is there's no way with I7.

ok maybe i down my expectations to latest version of i5?
the budget did not include a monitor just 1000 for cpu
the 2TB if hard to achieve then 1TB with a small separate SSD for windows boot up possible?

i am actually ok with game playing at medium detail as long it does not lag

You should be looking at i5-6500 with GTX1070 Mini or GTX 1060 Dual 6Gb if you want to squeeze all of these into $1000.

$1000 is really a tight budget.
but he dont mind average setting, then gtx 1060 should be ok under $1k I supposed
more experts view??

Also v difficult to buy the GTX1070 Mini cheaply to fit into the budget. In that case, the GTX 1060 Dual 3GB version should be fine, though I will opt for the 6GB version.

Not all games I think.
with my GTX 1080, Nivdia put my optimal setting for one setting at high instead of ultra. For the game of battlefield 1. I think is quality of sth sth.

nope. bf1 is not so taxing on gpu. it's that frickin cpu.
proof:


tbh, i am also stunned by that insane cpu requirements.

i have checked some AIO, specs wise for 1k budget definitely isn't that gaming friendly...

u have better gaming experience in building a actual pc without monitor..(what i mean is that a rig and a monitor is still better than buying aio.

Ok noted.
i7-7700k is a must to get to cover both CPU and GPU intensive.
It will be out before CNY??

tbh, i dun really catch up on this kind of release. there's no way u can keep up with all the news one. but as of now, i dun think bf1 is really well optimised in terms of cpu usage. yea some people say oh it's beautiful blah blah. but if they can recommend people to use i5-6600k as a minimum spec, it's not optimised to me.
