Looking for a new budget gaming rig

cardboardp · September 11, 2023

Budget (including currency): S$1000 SGD ($735.60 USD)

Country: Singapore

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Primarily for schoolwork but also play games like CSGO and War Thunder, maybe MSFS or X-Plane 11

Other details : I don't need peripherals because I already have them, just need the hardware. Aiming for 1080p 100+ fps so I can use my 1080p 120hz monitor. Would like to stick with mid-tower build or like MATX so it's not too big.

Thanks!

It is possible to play MSFS at 100 fps but you will have to adjust your settings accordingly, 1080p may not work, depending on what hardware you can find. New stuff probably will break your budget here. Maybe get a used pc you can easily upgrade? I have no idea what local prices in your area are but I would guess GPUs cost a ton everywhere else too so yeah... Do you have any other parts you can reuse from an older computer?
