Copied and pasted from the specs i put together, it's still a bit too expensive. 916, it needs to be trimmed down, i think i can live with a lesser video card, but i'm not sure.

Sorry to say, but those specs are already out of date... (except the video card and HDD)

i figured, i'm not trying to play Skyrim or anything, i'd just like something less pathetic that i can afford, and my mom guaranteed me 750 bucks to play with, so whatever i can build with that, i'll go for since i know next to nothing about what's in-date.

I'll make a build for you on Newegg. An upgradable, partially future-proofed. I'll PM it to you.

 

Wait, are you getting a monitor with it too?

[Scorpia]

Alright, thank you, that's cool of you. i personally do like the coolermaster case i picked out, i read good reviews on it.

 

oh, no, i'm not looking for a monitor.

[Collective Foal]

Get an HP! They have some damn good computers in your price range. If you earn a little bit more money ($50-100), you probably could play Skyrim

[Bravetriforcer]

Quick question. I'm trying to buy 6 games on Steam at once; some are for me, but most are gifts. If I purchase my cart as a gift and store it in my Steam inventory, can I open the games I meant for myself? Or will I have to give them away?

[Collective Foal]

I would play it safe and do two different transactions.

i would, but i'm on the fence on HPs

[Blightmare]

After being stuck with the HP's at my high school for 6 years, never again. NEVER. AGAIN.

[Bravetriforcer]

 

Lol

 

With some of the stuff I got, I doubt she'd be too happy.

 

Also, HP can go suck a dixie cup.

[Scorpia]

the last two posts is why i'm on the fence.

[Axeldeath]

Get a HP if you like a computer made out of factory seconds.

[Scorpia]

i'd rather get a Dell.

[Axeldeath]

Asus is the best.

[Alyxx Thorne]

I always build my own computers unless it's a laptop.

[Pinkie Pie]

All I have is a laptop. Granted, a pretty good gaming laptop, but still.

In most cases "Pretty good gaming laptop" translates to "Overpriced mediocre PC" in my experience.

Yeah but a laptop has dual purposes, show me a PC that can make you sterile.
