Hi guys,

I have been looking at prebuilt, but thinking I will get what I want by building myself.

Can anyone make some recommendations, components need the be purchased online in Australia.

Require the computer to be fast, plenty of storage capacity. It is mainly used to access Citrix for remote office access.

Will need everything including keyboard, mouse, dual screens.

Not wanting to spend more than $2000 all up.

Any more info required just let me know.

Look forward to your replies.

Cheers!

Thanks for your reply Koekieezz!

I would prefer a faster computer, so I5 would be better than I3.

As for storage, 2 TB minimum.

I will have a look over the options you gave for me. Just checking, the first one has no monitors?? And would need to be added on?

I also want it as quiet as I can. Are there certain things I should look for?

Thank you!
