That is pretty much limited if you're starting from scratch.. have no idea if this can be done. But if you're salvaging from whatever setup you've, you could build one with that budget. Probably starts with the Intel dual core processor E6500, find a 775 based mobo, tonymac uses lot of gigabyte mobos, so, probably best to get the GIGABYTE G31M-ES2L (and you could use the ES2L kit + Retail DVD copied into a flashdrive)..

To keep to the RM1K budget, you could leave out the DVD/CD. What you need only the processor, mobo, video card, RAM (4GB is good enough to start with), and 500GB or 1TB HD.

BoM based on CZone pricing:

D.CORE E6500  - RM230
GIGABYTE G31M-ES2L  - RM185
eVGA 8400GS 512MB GC - RM119
Kingston 4GB PC1333 RAM - RM130
Hitachi 1TB HD - RM155
CoolerMaster Elite 342/343 - RM109
CoolerMaster 460W Extreme Power - RM149

Total: RM1077 (w/o monitor, keyboard, mouse).
