Kyle Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 My brother is in the market for a gaming computer. I don't really know whatspecs are good, but his budget is $500, he wants it to be able to run steamgames like LoL, csgo, and smite without problems. He also doesn't want tobuild it on his own. He wants to just buy the computer as a whole. Please only post links to the computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JouxRS Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 I would recommend looking around pcpartpicker.com, the build posted above does fit the budget but doesn't look like the best build for the money, however I'm still shocked at seeing a MSI board for 10$ USD, am jealous. If your brother is on a budget, sounds like he is, I would consider going with an AMD based system, simply because it's cheaper and I find you get more performance for your money on a lower budget.

Definitely isn't the best build for money. It's just for reference. Depends on what you really need then feel free to edit and adjust. Processor,gpu and mainboard can be changed too. I don't usually build low end pc's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ANIMA VESTRA Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 Building a computer is like lego's for adults. It takes literally 2-3 hours MAX if you have no idea what you are doing and are just reading shit off the manual piece by piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
