Hi guys...will be going down to PCThemes (as recommended by alot of forum bros althought slightly pricey) for a new rig since mine is about 5 years old and needs a change. I am a pc noob so would need some help on the parts that are needed for the rig. Would prefer to have SSD too since i heard the bootup time is quick! Graphics card wise I am not sure..i only know Nvidia and ATI haha.

Current budget is about $1k but willing to up it further if needed.

Thank you in advance. :s13:
