Gaming Build $1000 AUD

[Beaaj004]

Hi,

I'm looking to build a gaming PC that can play most games on a high quality for around $1000 AUD (little wiggle room due to OS etc). I would prefer most parts come from a single or couple sites to save shipping.

I will require just an OS (no other peripherals etc). I mostly play games through Steam, such as Attilla Total War, Rust etc and would like it to be able to handle most games on high detail. I'm a new gamer so overclocking is pretty foreign to me.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
