Hey fellow members,
A little story but bear with me. So I've been thinking of getting a prebuilt from a US system integrator for quite some time. However since I am not living in the US, the prebuilt would be shipped on a very long route. Despite most providers having stellar packaging and shipping quality I sincerely have very little trust in shipping services like UPS, FedEx, DHL etc. Specially since it's a very big investment for me.
And due to the current gobal market and how it's looking it is almost impossible to get a GPU at MSRP. Which is one of the reasons why pre-builts are a good option for me atleast.
But. Since I'm so skeptical of shipping quality and since I've seen some RTX 2060 GPUs out there for a $600 price tag which is an okay amount in these unfortunate times. I've decided to go ahead and try to buy the parts from US and ship them all instead of shipping a fully assembled system.
So I want some options from you guy's on a build that is below $1000. Keep in mind that the $1000 is excluding the GPU and Peripherals. If you can, you can go lower to $900 or even $800 without losing performance/quality.
Things to keep in mind are:
Hope I haven't missed out on a crucial detail but these are the things I need to fit into the budget.
This will be mainly for 1080p gaming, maybe light streaming to Discord and I am an animator and vfx artist by profession so I will definitely be doing some of that and some graphic design as well.
That's it.
Hope it wasn't too long and I hope you guy's enjoy picking out some good parts. I'll keep checking on the thread for updates.
Thank you in advance! Have a great day!

Things to keep in mind are:
- Good airflow case (a very tropical and hot country here)
- Ryzen 3600 or higher processor. (Intel is fine too if it's 11th Gen)
- 16GB 3200 RAM or higher.
- 1 TB SSD (512 is also okay)
- AIO is preferred for cooling (again hot country)
- 650W PSU at the lowest with Gold Rating (No Gigabyte PSUs allowed)
- Feel free to add extra case fans if it's within budget.
- Motherboard can be a basic board, but atleast 4 DIMM slots and 4 SATA ports. ASUS preferred. Gigabit Ethernet port (idk this might be the norm for boards these days)
