$400-$500 Build

[TheExcaliber]

I'm looking for a build that can run up to a decent FPS and have good quality when playing League of Legends.

Simply looking for an AMD and/or Intel build.

Does it comes with it's own cooler?

[Mistersprinkles]

Does it comes with it's own cooler?

Yes. Only the X99 CPUs do not include a cooler.

The i3 build or an Athlon X4 860K build with a 270GPU are the directions I would steer you in personally.

Does it comes with it's own cooler?

Yes. And it is more then adequate.

Alright, and Operating systems not needed because my cousin got one.

Does rebate affect the current price or I mean say an component has a $15 rebate and when you buy it, does the price returns to the original form before rebate or stays $15 off?

How rebate works: you buy the price that is listed before the rebate, you gather a bunch of receipts and proofs that you bought the stuff, you mail it in to the manufacturer, pray that they don't screw you over, and maybe you'll get a check or a gift card with the rebate amount in the mail!

There are instant and mail in rebates. An instant rebate gets taken off the price you pay. WIth mail in, you pay full price up front, then get the rebate in the mail. If you're lucky.

How would you know if it's an instant or mail in? Does it says it ;-;?

It typically mentions which one it is.
