Prices quoted from PC Themes or otherwise stated.

Prices are in serial retail price. Not subjected to any shop discount yet, especially is you pay via cash.

Stuff from Carousell, deal at your own responsibility. I'm only recommending what is working from my experience. Will not be responsible if you purchase the wrong stuff or any inconvenience you face.

Apply some discount from Lazada when you using credit card on certain days with certain codes. Factoring in shop discount, you should be able to get everything within $1500.

Stock for gtx 1060 might or might not have. So you gotta camp for stock as well.

Sent from PM me if you wanna build a DIY PC or wanna learn how to make one yourself using GAGT

After discount can get better case, can reuse for few builds, ram also can get higher speeds, faster ram with ryzen can increase fps.

Also take note asrock released new bios update for some of their b350 boards.

Thanks for the reply, appreciate it.

I suppose now AMD is better than intel in terms of performance and price?

yes, amd is the way to go now unless you are stuck with old and unoptimized games which favours intel single core performance.
