Recommend me a gaming build.

[Moohai]

Hi, this is my first time building and would like to know the recommended build for a gaming desktop. I already have a monitor so i do not need one and would like to play games like League Of Legends. I would like a budget of 1.5k or more as i also play games like Battlefield 3. Thanks !

As for the rest, hard to say. If the item is popular, will be OOS fast.

IIRC, clon did mention you can arrange for pick up at sls. You can go find the promo thread at corbell section.

Tradepac assemble is 20 dollars. If u know better assemble yourself. Tradepac tends to take ahem the spare parts. I.e example for the GPU when they assembled for my friend they took the backplate cover for the case.

i dont really know how to assemble it as its my first time HAHA. so is there any other way i can ask some other people to help me assemble it properly ?

If u want still can get them to do it but must check properly first lor. Or else alternatively can ask GS help you. http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/hardware-clinic-2/new-setup-corner-all-diy-hardwarezoner-%5E-%5E-3581022.html#post86828561

It would be better to self assemble.... dun need Masters or Ph.D for that. Just go to youtube n watch linustechtips diy guide.

The satisfaction when u turn on the pc cant really be described...
