Buying gaming desktop, need help

[Buccfan113]

I'm buying a new gaming computer and i need some insight. The budget that i am working with is 800 dollars give or take a little. I would primarily be using this computer for mmorpgs preferably on high settings. I prefer to have at least a 20" monitor, and some decent speakers.

If you have any suggestions please feel free to comment,

thanks in advance

Thats a good budget to build it yourself.

Its not hard, if you played with legos you can do this.

 

[Buccfan113]

Depends where you live.

Newegg is the favorite for within us.

but there are also tigerdirect, chiefvalue and many more..

Try compiling a list yourself then we can check it over.
