For your budget, the best thing you can do now is to wait for Kevari.

This is almost impossible for the small budget that you have. This is the best I could do and I doubt that it will get above 40 fps on BF4 at the lowest settings possible. The only way that you can do this for $500 NZ dollars is by buying used parts.

Agree. The fact that there can only be 1 stick of RAM makes the iGPU useless.

@Computer_Guy & asad dab

Hi there, I am a New Zealander also and I am just noting the fact you cant do 500$. If possible would you be able to go through it and get the cheapest possible deal but also with the specs? I would be interested to then see what my budget could withstand

-Cheers,
