1.3k tight budget dont go for all the premium stuffs such as Samsung Pro SSD and X series PSU with a weak gpu. Gaming wise spend more on gpu.

ASRock H81M HDS + i5-4460 ~ $299
Crucial 8gb 1600mhz Value Ram ~ $100
WD Blue 1tb ~ $67
Samsung EVO 250gb ~ $143 (AFTER 10% discounts from lazada.sg using mastercard promo on Monday)
Zotac GTX970 4gb ~ $458 (AFTER 10% discounts from lazada.sg using mastercard promo on Monday)
Superflower HX600 600w 80+ Gold Semi Modular PSU ~ $98 (AFTER 10% discounts from lazada.sg using mastercard promo on Monday)
Sharkoon BD28 ~ $74
LG DVD Drive ~ $21

Total ~ $1260. Buy at tradepac unless stated, DIY.

No longer a mid range performance gaming rig. More of a high performance gaming rig.
