I don't want to say no, but I only saw Atoms CPUs on sub 400$ mobile computers (laptops, and tablets).

However, you live in the U.S, you have access to Dell outlet. You might find something for cheap. They are usually returned or refurbished products.

You may also contact Dell small business, and see if they have last year model that they are willing to sell for cheap.

At 500$, you can find something, like the Lenovo Z50

Update, I take it back. If you dont' mind playing games at low settings, and expect not full DirectX and OpenGL support (game may crash), and willing to go with Intel integrated graphics

Check this one: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/hp-pavilion-15-6-touch-screen-laptop-intel-core-i3-4gb-memory-500gb-hard-drive-black/8827378.p?id=1219371333249&skuId=8827378, a bit over your budget.

You also have this one with the A8 CPU at your budget:

However I am unfamiliar with the A8 performance in gaming.
