Not sure why you want even higher framerates, 100fps is already more than enough, especially since I doubt you have a 144Hz monitor...regardless, I'd try to find a used i7 and used 580 or similar. Total should run you about $150-175.

prebuilts plz.

prebuilts are upgrade able, as long as its not a dell. they have a habbit of having standard ram,, but with a bios lock, so only dell ram works.

I'd still try to find a used i7 and 580. Cheap upgrade but you'll get a lot more GPU performance and a fair amount more CPU performance.

 

 

Either that, or save up 2-3x what you have now and get brand new system.

You aren't going to get a good, brand-new system for your budget. Save up more.
