5 to 6k

[Purpose]
Gaming, programming & occasional video editing

[Games & softwares that use frequently]
Mostly strategy/city builder game like Civ series, TW series & Cities Skyline
Android Studios & MeteorJS
Planning to learn video game programming like UE4
Also running Linux sometimes

RM5.5k budget is considered low if u want SSD and 16GB RAM for today's prices. Too demanding

How about these?

Core i5-8400 - 854
MSI Z370 Gaming Plus - 599
Kingston 8GB DDR4-2400 X2 - 790
Zotac GTX 1060 6GB DDR5 AMP! - 1299
Samsung 850 Evo 250GB - 438

Super Flower Leadex Silver 550W - 359
Tecware Edge case - 199
Viewsonic VX2771 27" monitor - 799 (from Viewnet)

RM5537 total (C-Zone prices)

Just get a cheap one. Video editing needs CPU and more RAM.
How about these?

AMD Ryzen 5 1600 - 1039
Gigabyte AB350N Gaming WIFI - 529
Kingston 8GB DDR4-2400 X2 - 790
Asus GTX 1070 8GB DDR5 Dual - 1999 (Zotac is more expensive on C-Zone)
Samsung 850 Evo 250GB - 438
WD Blue or Seagate 1TB - 200

Coolermaster Elite 130 or Silverstone SG13B (from lelong or lazada) case - 199/239

You can remove the SSD if you want GTX 1070 Ti.
