Yes, it's 2871 as in the year 2871. I traveled all this way, back in time, just to help you. And you thought your mama lied when she said you were special-_-

What are you typing this on now? You could easily get a capable 1080p build for that much.

Instead of waiting a year and a half, you could buy one now, but anyway. You could still get a monitor and peripherals for your laptop.

One rule I go by - if you need to ask yourself how to spend your money, you don't need to spend it at all. Be smart and save it for a rainy day.

'Fanboyism is stupid' - someone on this forum.

Be nice to each other boys and girls. And don't cheap out on a power supply.

You could, actually. From PB tech, I pieced together a build with an i5 6400, 8GB DDR4, RX460, 120GB SSD, 1TB HDD, and a 500W PSU with Windows 10 for about $1,200NZD. That doesn't include peripherals, but it's capable and not too expensive. With an i3 6100, that would probably be cheaper still
