u can refer to this thread here:
https://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/threads/pc-rig-recommendations-for-2023.6852056/with this budget and no need to buy ram and ssd, u can look at either the entry level or value gaming pcs i recommended. the entry level rig is enough for light gaming and u can look to spend less than half of ur budget, though the value pc will be far more capable should u look to play more demanding titles.

Worth getting the Asrock B550M Pro4 382 over asrock b550m/ac? Difference about $60.

from what i can tell, u lose the m.2 heatshield, 1 m.2 slot, 2 sata ports, displayport and vga, 1 fan and 1 aio pump header, type c on rear io and metal reinforcement on the main x16 pcie slot. the loss of type c stings but id still get the ac for inbuilt wifi and cheaper price.

$1k quite hard to build a decent rig leh... This generation GPU alone cost at least $900 already how to build lol... If u up ur budget abit to about $2k ur system performance will increase greatly

Thanks but I think $1k is plenty for my use case. 2k is like double my budget haha.
