500-700 Dollar Gaming Computer To Replace Laptop

Should save up a bit more money and get an i3 + 380, you aren't going to want a pure dual core for gaming and the i3 at least has hyperthreading, also you can't OC the G3258 on that board anyways
Ya this has a pretty sizable case though

Both the ITX builds should have built in wifi
Or there the ITX build here with a 370 instead, probably worth losing the bit of performance vs the 950 to save 40 bucks. There's also probably a better ITX budget board, but I'm familiar with this one as being decent

Or for under budget and with a 240gb SSD there's this APU build, which is really probably only good for like Dota 2/CS:GO gaming, though it would be really tiny,
if you do want to go for something like this though, you'd be best off waiting for AM4 to launch so you have an upgrade path
