Currently I am in need of a new computer, my old one broke and it was worth 1000$ and I am in need of a new tower to play games and stuff on, I have somewhat of what I am looking for.

 

CPU 200$-300$

GPU 300$-500$

 

And anything else is fine with me.

 

*All of the money is in US dollars.

Don't trust this maniac, I think he is a crazed tech addict on the loose.

Specs: none

Will upgrade l8r.

I'd rather just fully upgrade as my computer is 3 years old and performs worse than a 500$ PC today.
