Amd or Intel?

[h4mz]

would like to build an AMD gaming PC for 2000sgd/1600usd (AMD is much cheaper xD). Would like 2 gpus, 16gb ram, 1-2 tb HD an and 125-250 gb ssd for that price. Also I want it to be able to last for 3 years at least. What is the best build for me? Would an Intel build with 1 gpu be better instead? Monitors and other peripherals I already have, so I am just wanting to build a rig. Thanks for the help!

You could easily do a 4670K build for 1600usd

Core I5 4670K - 229.99
ASRock Z87 Extreme6 - 169.99
16GB DDR3 2133 - 109.99
Seasonic 850W - 149.99
GTX 760 X2 - 509.99

Total 1169.95 leaving you with 441 for HD, SSD and OS

Hi IntelGod, Thank you for the fast reply. Didn't know I could get an intel based build with 2 gpus for $1169!! I'll still need a case and a cooling system is necessary I think(I'm kinda new to this DIY PC building so I'm not sure).

Look into a Phanteks ph-tc12dx and a case that you like.

I'm gonna try getting them from where I live, Singapore. I can't use newegg as they do not ship internationally. But prices here do sorta follow the US, so I'll be looking out for them here. There are a few places that I have in mind. Local retailers for various PC parts. Many do not have websites and even if they do the prices may not be the same as what they have stated on the price list.

Should have no issues finding what you need over there. If you have any other questions please let us know
