Not the best. You'd be kicking yourself in the head after about a couple of months when you find out you have no upgrade path.

Save your pennies. Like, another couple of weeks/months/allowances.

Agreed, we dont really get them here in the UK

Yep an extra $100-$200 makes a massive difference

 

That said, it shows that if you REALLY are on TINY budget, you can get a gaming capable PC
