$1000 Budget build.

[Captain_France]

1.Budget and Location

Well i have a budget of $1000 dollars. I do have a bit of wiggle room but that is the price to stay around and that's not including postage I also live in Australia so keep that in mind.

 

2.Aim

this will be for gaming and Web browsing. Also keep in mind it needs to be in a smaller form factor. it has to fit on my desk as i have no room anywhere else. 

 

3/4. Monitors and Peripherals. 

Dont need any. Already have them.

 

5.Why am i upgrading 

My current computer is quite old, almost 5 years on some parts, and im in need of an upgrade.

 

Also i dont need a power supply or ram.
