First Time PC building

[Cazh1]

1. Budget & Location

~$1000 SGD

Singapore

2. Aim

Mainly schoolwork and 1080p gaming. Planning to run games such as Far Cry 3, Battlefield.

3. Monitors

Planning to use a single 1080p monitor

4. Peripherals

Require monitor and Window OS (not part of the budget but recommendation is appreciated)

 

I already have an idea of the parts i want to use but changes needed to be made to fit the budget better:  http://pcpartpicker.com/list/sfRhjc

Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated.

You could add an SSD or upgrade the graphics card to a 1070. You also forgot the CPU Cooler. Also you could pick lower watt PSU.

The computer is good, I'd add a 250GB SSD though.

The CPU would bottle the 1070.

SSD is a great idea.

what's your total budget including windows and monitor? i doubt the parts will fit in the budget...

anyhow, get this monitor, PLS and freesync support for very cheap.

What wattage would you recommend? Also, which CPU cooler do you recommend?
