Need help looking for a good PC.

[CaptinCCat]

Hey guys, I am looing to buy a gaming PC. I don't know if it is cheaper to build one, or just buy one. I am looking at the buying. but HEY if its cheaper, and runs better, I  would be more then willing to build one from scratch.  my budget is around 5-6 hundred dollars. (this will be my first gaming PC) I don't have a whole lot to spend. but I am defiantly willing to gradually upgrade.

So if you have reconditions for a already built PC PLEASE LET ME KNOW in the comments.

if you have reconditions for a homemade PC, again PLEASE LET ME KNOW (put recommended equipment please)

 

THANKS

Build one, never buy one pre-built.

 

Give me about 5 minutes to throw something together.

Does this include os, monitors, and other peripherals?

Its just a little bit over your budget, but its better than what alot of those pre-built computers would get you.

(I suggest overclocking the hell out of the pentium, you should be able to get it up to 4GHz+ with the 212 evo cooling it)

It should be able to run pretty much any game that is out at this time on at least medium settings with 30+ fps which in most games is more than playable.
