New Rig recommendation please

[arcxenos]

I am planning to buy from PC themes since they've so much supporters, and their prices seems reasonable (compared to other shops).

http://assets.hardwarezone.com/retailer_pricelist/PC Themes_153.pdf

My budget is 800-900~

I plan to use the desktop for gaming(I am not playing on a resolution higher than 1080p) and 3d modelling (maya).

I do not require OS, monitor, M+KB and other external items

I prefer intel and nvidia

Please recommend a build, thank you.


edit: also anyone knows if they could help me setup my computer if I get all the parts from them ?

Should I go for the MSI GTX 660 Twin Frozr + Seasonic s12ii 520w @ 399 (promo) instead ?

Provided the promo is still on. IIRC, this Corbell promo happened quite long ago.

argh, I suppose it ended, but apparently the price list was from the 23rd of march.

Any recommendation for a more powerful GPU ?

your budget not enough and nvidia gpus now overpriced.

Could extend it to 1.2k at most, I don't really need the best
