Top paying companies in SG for CompSci

Not really, above average can already. Most normal grads from CS are getting above 4k these days...

Do you have a source for such a statement? It's kind of a sweeping statement, much better if you have data to prove it..

Some GLCs and stat boards are offering 4.8k+ for FCH holders.

What? How true is this?

Add-on Banks:

Former Goldman Sachs graduate engineer (NAPA programme).

Intern 4.58k per month
Full-time 1st year: 4.58k * 1.17(CPF cash comp if you're a foreigner)
7.5k signin bonus (return offer) + 15k relocation fee (Applied to foreigner, although I studied in SG)
2 months New York training staying at 5 star suite.
AIA standard insurance plan

I quitted it after a year because the tech stack is outdated and people in Singapore office are not as technical as its London and New York office.

I heard the base of 2018 NAPA programme will be increased to 70k/year from 55k/year. To be confirmed.

I disagree with your mindset that grade matters much for CS jobs. I’ve seen so many honors degree holders can’t find a good job or can’t even pass first technical round. You should always remember software engineering is a hands on and fast paced job. My GPA is 2.78 and still can get into a 5.5k/month engineer job which has 5 rounds of technical interviews. Practice more, try to see, think, folk and contribute to GitHub and you can make it.
