Need New Computer

Well, my netbook, is pretty worn down, i'm using the family computer, but i really need a gaming PC.
Must be:
Cheap, Powerful, $400-$600, Monitor included.
Please, give me a link to the site.

Sorry but there is no way of getting a pc with a monitor for that price. A pc alone would cost at least 500-600 usd.

 

Especially not a gaming PC.

You're not going to get what you want for that price. Try $2k prebuilt, around $1.5k built yourself. Excluding monitor. My dual 22" monitors were $160 each.

 

It all depends on the games, but I would never expect the computer to cost 1.5k if build by hand. I bet if you went with medium parts you could get it to 1k with mointor, and no software

 

He said strong, didn't he?

I would say spend it on the Quad Core, way more stronger. This is currently the best deal I can find for you.

He said Powerful.
And playing games with a on board VGA sucks.
You really don't want those PC's for gaming because they used the cheapest/slowest possible hardware around and is really bad for gaming.

 

Well he can always upgrade the video card over time, it's not that bad at the moment. I would suggest building a PC, but with his budget it's kinda hard.

I doubt that anyone would, but maybe try craigslist?

Great gaming PC for the price, but you could just find a monitor on craigslist or buy one separately from newegg.

 

It depends on what game he's trying to play.

 

You couldnt get a decent pc for that money...
+ overclock it... i think it makes the performance double or something

 

iBuyPower has always been extremely unreliable for everything I've used them for. Before my PC got BSOD'd, I suggested them to my Cousin and one of my friends. My Cousin's mobo was DOA, and my friend's PC's graphics card and HD stopped working. While trying to get that fixed, the light on the case stopped working.

 

Where did you buy yours from? All the iBuyPower computer I bought have always worked perfectly.

 

you wont be able to get a powerful computer for 400-600 dollars... a basic work computer yes...

but if you want a nice gamer, HD video playback and powerful CPU and fast Hard drive get your budget to like 1000-1200

i recommend the new intel core i7 core its beast trust me

 

We all bought them from the iBuyPower website, I was with them both.

 

just build a computer, will cost you like $800 because getting a good machine that is already build will cost you like $1000

 

Thank you everyone for the ideas, but i have £500, i put dollars by accident. </3

 

That's different then, how much is a pound worth in USD or Canadian money?

-LeetNeo.

 

Depends if it's euros or British pounds.

500 Euros is around 660$ USD
and 500 British pounds is almost 800$

 

Hmm, that's a lot better, it depends where he lives. I don't know any websites that sell stuff in Europe or where they use British pounds.
