I'm uploading a 2GB video so browsing uncached sites to look at prebuilt PCs is a no no right now. I can say this though, a desktop for that price will get you a lot more performance.

Yea thats what ive been told...just dont know what to get >.<

theres not a lot people can do if youre buying from a store that isnt online.

look for some threads that have gaming pcs for around the same budget and try to match that with what you find on the box as best as possible.

Shoot i ment i will be buyin it online>.< dyslexic on a serious note

if you can play with legos, you can put a computer together. if youre a real scaredy cat, then try looking at some cyberpower and alienware pc's and we can help find the least worst one for you.

Im just to clumsy to put 1 together. I tried takin my older 1 apart to get some dust out n never started again. I rather have an expert do it for me. If i had a friend around that knew how to do so then id have him help me but i dont. I know for a fact that i will NOT buy from ibuypower(ibuy****) cyberpower or alienware as much as i love the style of their laptops..way to many bad reviews on those companies. i did love legos those as a kid

If i try to
build it can someone help me pick the parts i need? Want to play bf3 at a smooth 60fps on
high settings
