Suggestion for another new system

[Eva2002]

Hi,

I guess a couple of you already know I am rigging a new computer for myself in my previous thread.

However, my friend also wants me to rig out a "GAMING" computer for her. I will help her spec out for com but I want to see what you all suggest first and then work out from there.

Purpose:
Gaming

Budget:
SGD $1500

Item Required:
Full PC (with 1 DVD-RW)
Monitor
No need KB and mouse

Thanks.

If your friend dunno how to manage her files properly, then get SSD also no use, coz she will whole day bug u comp no space... Probably small SSD + intel RST might work better...
