how bout the cooler ? and how if i want to do SLI......

Stock cooler is enough to handle your usage, unless u plan to do overclocking on cpu.
If plan to do SLI, u need a better mobo that cost a bit more. For most latest games on market, GTX670 or GTX680 handle them without a sweat smile.gif

Maybe your cables are laying around with mess and thus blocking the airflow inside the case.
As they suggested changing to a better chasis only improve very little.
For example, I changed from CM Elite 310 to Corsair 600T only get 1-2°C drop in temp.

i like the way u comment on the specs, but comparing both specs, aside from the monitor, which spec is better? both around the same price, i can swap the monitor away  smile.gif  icon_rolleyes.gif
*
Obviously the previous recommendations from WiLeKiyO is better, in terms of price brows.gif
Maybe u just reduce some budget on mobo and casing can achieve the budget u set.
Let's say use a MSI B75MA-P45 mobo RM229 and pick a Casing around RM150+

Edit: Dell U2312HM is 23" with 1080p resolution, which is better than the 20" one with 1600 x 900p resolution. The price different between these two models are around RM250.

Can you suggest a rig for me, for RM1500 and also RM1000?
For home use (emails, word processing, internet), very light / no gaming.
Include monitor also.

Thanks.

Nope, he means higher end graphic cards need more power. Such as 7950, 7970 or gtx670, 680.
