Hi, as per title, trying to fully max out the extra 2.5k tax relief for 2H 2020. Any recommendations on how to fit a modest build to play cyberpunk 2020?

I can move around that budget a bit, but mostly trying to keep it at that

Use that money to buy a PS5 to play it.

Too little to build a gaming PC that can play the game at high/ultra settings at 60fps.

You won't get anything good with that 2.5K
Double it. Then you'll get something decent

Yeah that's what I thought so too...oh well

If you can squeeze more budget, get this.

Core i5-10400F - 609
MSI B460M Bazooka - 479
Pick your brand 8GB DDR4-3200 (runs at 2666) x2 - 278
Galax GTX 1660 Super - 999
PNY CS3030 500GB - 339
Cooler Master MWE Bronze V2 550W - 239
Tecware Forge M case - 149

RM3092 total (C-Zone prices)

Cyberpunk 2077 Recommended PC: 1080p High
Core i7-4790 or Ryzen 3 3200G
GTX 1060 6GB, GTX 1660 Super (or R9 Fury)
12GB RAM
6GB VRAM
70GB SSD storage
Windows 10 64-bit
Target: 1080p High

buy console bro.. RM2k and RM500 for the game

a decent processor & mobo will cost you RM2k+

Gfx card is another RM3k

you haven't add any case, ram, etc

even a starter decent gaming machine would cost RM5k

That's pretty decent imho, was thinking like this but afraid of the prices..now that you put it like that looks doable...do u recommend going to shop or getting during Lazada shopee 12/12 sales better?

U havent include monitor price..

you are looking at 3.5k..

can you afford it?

Nowadays I stopped looking at "same number date" sales. They inflated the price and discount it.

just a tip for Shopee users.. install and download google chrome plugin to check price history for that particular shop

U dont get free PC by spending rm2. 5k to get rebate 2.5k

I know bro...it's all about reducing my chargeable income. Im thinking in terms of cost/benefit, with first option either spending more to get a tangible item and potentially getting some money back from LHDN

or

Not buying anything and throwing a few hundred for moodin gov for nothing again, which is what happened for me in YA 2019. Regretted not spending a bit more last year

oo didn't know this. Good to see if they manipulate prices or not

Got tax relief as stated by ts. Opportunity up to 2x% of tax money back

Tbh am buying for the sake of not wanting to donasi monies to moodin only, thinking of the additional costs..like not worth now since haven't considered other peripheral like keyboard also

2.5k..better buy PS5..

-asrock b450m pro4
-ryzen 3100
-2x8GB ddr4 3200mhz
-240gb ssd
-nvidia GTX1650 super
-FSP hyperK 600w
-RM100 matx case or this gem at RM50
- balance for used <20" monitor (very cheap on shopee) or use your current TV, kb & mouse

as many people suggest you get the HIGHEST quality on Cyberpunk on Consolse for RM2.5k budget.. PS5/XB

You get lousy gfx on RM2.5k budget on a PC

You already state you want this for Cyberpunk.

what about him getting a 2nd hand pc?
