I just tried keying in the specs at MyNextCom, the price is around $50/ with free delivery but no free gift (Bf4)

This is the specs Im after now,

Tradepac pricelist
I5+Asrock h81m-dgs $305
Crucial 8GB ram $90
WD 3tb green $147
Sapphire r9 270 + Fsp 700W $395
(Power colour and FSP 500/600W out of stock)
Samsung OOD $21
Sharkoon T28 $78

Total is 1036/-


Was offered 965 and managed to bargain till 950, after confirming and typing the invoice, he says he forgot to add rams, thus using 965+90 which adds up to 1055 (this is over shot by $19/ from their pricelist..)and the $15 discount is invalid and new price is $1050..

I think LLST, have to go buy from him some other day again =(

Is fortran still helping to build new PC?

Please get H81M-HDS for just $5 more... Gives you additional USB 3.0 header for chassis USB 3.0 ports and a spare HDMI port.

*Revive my old thread* - with revised budget (Had to buy quickly as PC is dying soon. Used to be able to power up after 2-3 reset, now is based on luck :()

mine lasted more than one year of hibernating until I accidentally shut down last week :s13:

Dear bro

I wanted a pc build by the OP above mostly for gaming of diablo3 and maybe later wow. Is the final build by the OP still relevant or there had been improved build available? I do intend to have the set build by mynextcom,on their website, and have the set build and delivered to my home. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
