Hello. Everyone recommends me to build my own pc and apparently i have little knowledge abt the pc components. I really want a pc gaming.i'm not hardcore gamer but i do play games like cod,assasin creed,battlefield and all sorts. So anyone can help me whether i should buy a prebuilt pc or any of you can help me suggest which one is the best if were to built my own pc. I'm from kuching so it is much helpful if i can get from the stores nearby.thanks.and my budget probably not more than 2.5k

Building your own PC is better,unless you're a total newbie or even have some kind of "custompeeseephobia". biggrin.gif

Intel Core i5 4460 3.2GHz RM629
Asrock B85M-HDS RM239
Leadtek GTX960 2GB GDDR5 RM759
Kingston HyperX Fury 8GB DDR3 1600MHz RM249
WD Caviar Blue 1TB RM184
Seasonic M12II 80+ Bronze 520W Modular RM279
Corsair Carbide Spec-03 RM219
Total:RM2568
Prices are from Viewnet@LYP. smile.gif

I've no idea what are the shops in Kuching,you can go to a shop of your choice i guess,and make sure you give them the quotation above. wink.gif

Also,the CPU is one of the parts of a computer...you don't call a computer a CPU. tongue.gif

And one more thing,you posted in the wrong section.This is gonna be moved to Hardware i hope.

Gaming wise, it might be better to build your own.

+1 to custom build

if u ask me, I look for a suitable /nice casing first and then build from there.
For gaming I would recommend get a full tower for better air flow and more modding options.
