P phong7 Honorable Dec 16, 2012 7 0 10,510 Jun 17, 2013 #3 New Zealand. Budget is flexible but I'll be primarily using it for Poker, and maybe some Dota 2/FIFA/NBA. Given my needs I figure I don't need to spend too much? Trying to keep it under $1000NZD if possible. What are your suggestions? Upvote 0 Downvote
