Hi ! I want to build a gaming PC for $1,000, I will play at 1080p. I have selected all the parts but the total is coming at $1,107. Please suggest something that will reduce the cost by $100 but performance would be the same.
Note : I have the read the 'Build your own $1,000 PC' article on Tom's but I am not satisfied with that build, I want more.
Well, here's the components I have selected :
