First thing, the prices between PCPartPicker and the local stores like Sim Lim and Funan would differ a little. Don't get conned at Sim Lim either lol. Also, I'm trying to choose parts that I think would be readily available in SG - though it's hard to guess.
$1200 SGD = $960 USD
PC Parts Link: http://pcpartpicker.com/p/21Jgx
CPU: AMD FX-6300 3.5GHz 6-Core Processor ($119.99 @ Newegg)
Motherboard: Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard ($69.99 @ Microcenter)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($84.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($59.94 @ OutletPC)
Video Card: Gigabyte Radeon HD 7870 2GB Video Card ($183.98 @ Newegg)
Case: Cooler Master HAF 912 ATX Mid Tower Case ($49.99 @ Microcenter)
Power Supply: Corsair Enthusiast 650W 80 PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V / EPS12V Power Supply ($83.98 @ Newegg)
Optical Drive: LG GH24NS95 DVD/CD Writer ($15.00 @ Newegg)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 (OEM) (64-bit) ($84.98 @ OutletPC)
Monitor: Samsung S22C300H 21.5" Monitor ($119.99 @ Newegg)
Keyboard: Microsoft SIDEWINDER X4 Wired Gaming Keyboard ($49.99 @ Newegg)
Mouse: Razer DeathAdder 2013 Wired Optical Mouse ($52.99 @ Amazon)
Total: $962.81
(Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.)
- Decent gaming mouse, non-mechanical keyboard
- One of the lowest cost Samsung HDMI 1080p monitors
- HD 7870 is the recommended graphics card for BF4, you can get good FPS on medium/high with that
- 8GB RAM is all you need for gaming, and the Corsair Vengeance line is one of the best
If you don't need a 'gaming' mouse and keyboard, then we can cut the price their and beef up your PC a little more (but only by $50 tops).
Hope you find this helpful!

AMD...because of your bedget, instead you could go with core i3 with this budget, that doesn't get my approval, since it is a bottleneck in a lot current gen games, 7870 equals gtx 660 ti so save 100$ and get the same performance http://gpuboss.com/gpus/Radeon-HD-7870-vs-GeForce-GTX-6...

I believe those prices are in USD. They also don't include the mouse, keyboard, monitor, windows 7 OS, and optical drive. All of this deducts a lot from your $960 USD budget. Keep in mind that GPU is more important than CPU (as long as there is no bottleneck; ie, there is no super weak link within the build).
- FX 6300 is a decent performer all around but it would lose out to its pricer and costlier Intel Core i5s ($170-200 USD)
- I chose AMD CPU and GPU because of the cost-performance that it delivers
- Likewise, the HD 7870 2GB is equivalent to the GTX 660 Ti
>>> http://www.bf4blog.com/battlefield-4-retail-gpu-cpu-ben...
>>> HD 7870 is just below the GTX 760 2GB at much less the cost
Like DarkReduction said, it's a tough ask but doable. Let me know if you want to change anything from the suggested build.

The monitor, keyboard and mouse doesn't matter at the moment

Take all these builds with a pinch of salt, and make sure you're open to alterations when you start looking for parts cause they might not carry a certain brand or a certain model.
Just heads up

you think a z87 is only meant for overclocking?
and what if he wants to upgrade later to i7 4770k? (isn't it better to already have a capable mainboard?)
h87-g43 costs 5$ less so not worth to change from z
and I don't know a good h87 that is well 20$(or more) less to be called cheaper
well if you know one just correct it in my build
I am not perfect and I may make stupid mistakes
so don't just cry/complain ^^ correct the fool's mistake (in this case mine)
take into account when you change mainboard later you have to change windows too if is the oem version, so having a capable mainboard to have access later for the best cpu of that sockel when you feel the cpu you own is struggling will save you from wasting money on new mainboard+windows and you can get best cpu of that sockel + more money on new gpu (well just an idea)
and what if he wants to upgrade later to i7 4770k? (isn't it better to already have a capable mainboard?)
h87-g43 costs 5$ less so not worth to change from z
and I don't know a good h87 that is well 20$(or more) less to be called cheaper
well if you know one just correct it in my build
