NEW PC- Tower and monitor?

remox · 05-07-2009, 07:41 PM

I have a thread about keyboard, mouse etc and got that sorted
Now I need a good gaming pc tower and monitor
My budget on this is $1000 dollars~
I don't want to buy in parts and put it together rarar I just want a good gaming, already put together, tower for about 700 or so and monitor for about 300 or so prefer 19 inch monitor, but not bigger then 22 inch.

Jam0864 · 05-07-2009, 07:48 PM

Good, new, assembled, gaming, $700...
Doesn't go togethor well...

Hornet Gold - $1,089.00 - Scorpion Technology
here's one for $1000 without monitor... could get a 19" for $180 or so new, or grab one second hand.

remox · 05-07-2009, 09:03 PM

Doesn't have Windows XP/ Vista on :/
and 120 dollars shipping to QLD..

Good gaming PC does not happen for $700

Jam0864 · 05-07-2009, 09:15 PM

Buy an xbox.

How much does it happen for.

vitaL · 05-07-2009, 09:18 PM

just pick out all the parts (get someone on here to pick them for you) and pay whoever you buy it from to put it together for you :/

most places will charge around $50 to build it for you.

although you will need to spend more than $700 regardless if you want it for gaming... ~$1200 should be enough

xr6_turbo · 05-07-2009, 09:23 PM

Well not true when I say you exactly can't Pinto got a $600 setup but he overclocked it to achieve good fps...

You would be needing $1200-1500 to build a full fledged gaming setup man.

Jam0864 · 05-07-2009, 09:28 PM

Just grab the one I linked and pirate a copy of XP/Vista (pm for link if you need) and then grab a second hand monitor from somewhere.

denied · 05-07-2009, 09:37 PM

mine was 1700 two years ago~

8800GTX
E8500
4gig ram 800hz
Asus P5k-R
500gb hdd
antec 900
LG dvd burner

i get over 200 fps without cevo config, u should consider something along those lines if you want to play games that run the source engine.

In saying that if u want to play games like cod4, crysis, etc etc you will need a better system to play at max settings

Could anyone "Build my own computer" using this site Online Computer Store - Umart Online Your one stop Computer Shop for computer parts,notebook and new system
it has what they have in stock, could someone pick out specs please?
well I guess 700-1200 would be fine

edit: you go in Desktop Computers then > Customer Configure System and it has a form to build it

I included a monitor in my build aha. I don't know whether they assemble or not, I'd say they do... better double check before purchasing.

remox · 05-07-2009, 10:02 PM

TOTAL : $$1251
The price shown are cash/cheque price only,all credit cards attract a extra charge,
The Price shown are system build price and installation charge are included,but any parts in the other(anything else) are not included

yep they do build and install

They're integrated on your motherboard. Unless you have extremely high quality speakers or headphones it's not necessary to buy a soundcard, and the network card integrated on the motherboard is fine as long as you only need one ethernet port.

Nice little setup...

I'd change the Ram and the Board however for Overclocking Goodness

Although 1066mhz allows a good overclock, I am not sure on KingMax Ram
