umm idk usally you buy a cheap pre built with a okay CPU and then put a low end gpu in it, and you only spend like $200, but dont expect it to play like gta 5 and stuff, and its only untill you can save up for a real one at like the $500-$600 limit

^^Those 4th gen Intel pc's used to be $300usd all day long, I see now they are much! much! much! much! cheaper. Must be because of all the new products for sale like Ryzen and the new Intel cpu's.

Yes! Bump up the ram a bit, from 4GB to 8 or 12. Maybe save some dinero buying used ddr3 on fleabay

pretty big performance boost from 3rd gen to 4th gen intel compared to 2nd gen intel to 3rd.

Buy the i5-4590 its uber cheap, at $200!

You will be pleased with that setup!

Guarunteed!

 

There is a $100 increase to go to 4th gen intel i7

•  
• $309^.50 

 

You need to realize though, that you need to increase the usd prices about 25% to get AUSD price.

So $220 is like $300ausd and the i7 is like $410ish in ausd

 

1 USD = 1.26315 AUD

Oh I dunno mate. You could use a parcel forwarder, which is quite common for people in Canada and elsewhere where US companies dont ship out of the USA. Its an added cost, how much extra I have no idea.

Guess you'd have to shop here

https://www.newegg.com/global/au

or try fleabay!

Mail Forwarder

Parcel Forwarder

 

Are the terms to search for and to check out. You can get free shipping to your forwarder, but the cost to mail it on to Australia I have no clue. I've tried to look into it a few times, for stores like Walmart.com and such.

 

Do you have any family or friends in the USA?
