Hey legends

I'm looking at building a PC from the ground up.

I had a rough play around on pcpartpicker but just want to ensure that I'm not overspending on areas where I don't need it.

I put together two (one being intel, one AMD) as I have no preference between the two. My budget is around $1k AUD (preferably lower than $1k)

All that I am looking for it to be able to play games like minecraft, arma 3, WoW, D3, etc. cleanly on moderate settings, not pushing them to the max here.

Any help/comments/improvements etc. would be greatly apprecaited!

Thanks! :)

Prices can vary daily so I'd at least pick out what you're looking to buy and then wait until the time of purchase. Or just scope out prices while you have things picked out and then buy if you see a good deal.

Prices are pretty stable in AU because nothing is really ever on sale there.
