Looking to build a basic [Gaming] pc for around $650-$850 AUD. [cheaper is preferable] also if including a monitor there is an added $150 to the list.

 

minimum requirements.

a hard drive above 750gb or an ssd above 240gb. (Cause i already have a spare 500gb hard drive)

6gb of ram

Radeon r9 280 or gtx 950 or greater.

 

prefered items

8gb ram.

4cores intel or 6 cores amd

radeon r9 290 or gtx 960 or greater

1tb hard drive or 300+gb ssd

A monitor that supports 1080p. (Doesn't have to have hdmi)

 

Sorry if i sound rude for requesting assistance. But i tend to be bad with online searches and i would like to see some of your suggestions. Thanks again

There can be a monitor but i have one already.  But its 1280x720 so if there is a monitor there is an extra $150AUD on the budget so nothing else that may of been suggested has to be cut.

And you also forgot that the variable refresh rate range is 48-75Hz, which means it's way better than a 60Hz display.
