I prefer to get windows 7/8 from local retailers, no windows 10 as they are expensive

Can anyone find me parts for a gaming pc in Singapore, no purchase by credit cards or any online payment method.

I have a tight $500-$700 budget ( Keep the price as cheap as possible )
Looking to play dota 2 ( please tell me what settings it can run on and estimated frame rates )
Windows ready


Thanks.:s13::s13:

Your budget is too low, might have to resort to used, especially since you can't get windows online. I also have a gaming pc for sale at $280 however, maybe you can check out my listing at the marketplace?

Thanks! I'll stick with that. So before I buy the parts, can anyone tell me are they compatible? Too lazy to check

i will swap the hdd for an SSD. More essential. HDD can come in later for "storage" purposes.

Rather have more storage now then get an ssd later, or invest in a hybrid drive. Buy ssd now then later not enough space then siao liao

Alright, the cost will not be $680+ anymore, since I found a seller who sell windows 7/8/10 keys

remember, TS has a low budget. hybrids may be slower than an ssd but its still much faster than a regular hard drive. http://www.storagereview.com/seagate_desktop_sshd_review

i remembered. Hence SSD. I never said anything about getting a 500GB SSD.
a 240GB SSD is below <$100 anyway.

a SSD is capable of getting >500MB/s.
a Hybrid is only <300MB/s
A regular HDD is approx <230MB/s


as said, it is up to TS's decision. I am just sharing what i feel about it. You need not convince me at all.

TQ.
