Hi guys,

i am thinking of setting up my own rig with a budget of probably 1.5k does not have to be a high end gaming rig as i do not really play alot of games only fifa 14 and football manager 14 (some FPS games maybe). can someone recommend me a rig that includes speaker/monitors/casing/wifi card/keyboard/mouse? im also looking for one that can support dual monitor in the near future if i wish to upgrade it or upgrade certain parts

Thanks in advance! :)

Are you thinking to go for dual GPU and dual monitor solution?

Or are you intending to game at 1440p resolution.

Do you need OS?

1.5k is not gonna land you any good for a dual screen setup.

If you think of going dual screen, what is your purpose? Gaming?

If so then you would probably need another GPU to help you run dual screen. Or a single GPU with more than 3GB Vram but do not expect to play games on both screens.

This is crucial before we can recommend you anything.

Cause with that budget the best is a single screen solution.

my purpose for getting dual screens is for my trading. but i tink its fine to have just 1 single screen since my budget only permits that haha :s13: Dont really need to game on both screens lol probably simple stuffs like viewing vids and such.
