been lurking here for sometime now, and its finally for me to assemble a PC!
Hope bros here can help me out.. i play mostly L4D / Dota / sometime GTA5

possible play all this with a budget of 1k ? cos 200 for monitor

i do not need mouse and KB, just the CPU and monitor.

i see many brothers here say tradepac is the cheapest... possible to get all the parts from there including OS? cos i cant buy online... wanna let them install for me once and for all..

This Saturday i will be going down liao! Thanks in advance..! :o

Maybe.. they may charge u for Assemble and Installation of OS

U save ard $100 buying from G2A, make sure u tell them is Windows 8.1 Professional edition.

Or u can get the whole system from Fortran, not sure he still ard or not.

R9 380 should be able to run smoothly on High - Very High @ 1080p and how is FSP Aurum S 500W a lousy PSU ? :s22:

If TS can find R9 290 or R9 290X, that will be a better choice.
