Any ready-built Gaming PC's for around $300?
Well, the title says it all. It's pretty self-explanatory; does anybody know where I could get a Gaming PC, ready built for around $300-350?
If so, could you post a link and if you want you can post a little recommendation/review type thing. Thanks.

You won't get anything too great for $300
Don't listen to those telling you that you can't get a good computer with $300. My own computer cost just that including shipping costs and it runs everything perfectly. I actually ordered mine from Walmart, but some of these other sites that have been suggested also work.
my monitor alone cost more then that...
You can cut some costs by buying a computer with a lunix based OS. Though complicated, you can save up and buy (if you need to) a windows OS.
Or, he could just get a cracked version of windows.
My GPU Costs more than that..
No. Raise your price a bit.
Click to reveal
you thought there would be something here haha
Do you need a Mouse / Keyboard?
Do you have a monitor?
Do you need an OS?
I can find you some parts, but don't expect anything spectacular.

I would buy an HP
If you want a good computer that you can customize go to ibuypower.com they are great!
No.
Even a basic A10- 5800K prebuilt goes for around $700, and that's usually with something stupid like 1333/1600MHz RAM.

As everyone is saying before, 300 won't get you anything good, maybe you could get a laptop which could MAYBE get you 60 fps on a good day, but nothing big. Maybe save up some money, find parts and make it yourself, or get a laptop
My new one is around 7000-8000 usd , but for 300$ you dont get anything good
Honestly at that price no, and if people are saying there are they're either scamming you, don't know much about computers, or they've found some extreme sale/refurbished/second hand deals.
You should either save up some more, or upgrade your current PC's hardware over time but make sure you have someone that knows what they're doing to help you and don't just buy parts and assume they'll work. (In most cases they will but certain parts need special requirements, graphics cards need a good PCU to give them enough power and so on).
Sorry it's probably not what you wanted to hear but it's the truth, good luck.

There's no way you could get a gaming computer for 300, the only thing you'd be able to play is minecraft, and then you have to get the monitor and such. I recommend you building it, though for that price? It'll be hard. If you want something nice for gaming, you should go on craigslist.com, and see if they had any. I saw $800 one there for $200. Mmhm $200. But that was like rare. that was like finding Latios and Latios in a battle simultaneously. (It's a Pokemon thing)
If you want a good gaming computer, make one yourself. You will know all about it, and you can upgrade it at any time with anything you want. I built mine for about 750-900, but it is the best one that I can find anywhere else.
If you want a gaming computer, you're going to need more then $350... Honestly.
You can get a vibox off amazon, not very reliable but good hardware.
i have a toshiba satellite for about 750. best laptop out there.
You are not going to get any good gaming computer for 300$.
There won't be any very good ones, my laptop costs $500 and I still can't play anything apart from Minecraft
Laptops are much more expensive for what you get than a desktop. With a Laptop, you're paying tons extra for a small form factor and portability.
So yeah, you pretty much just picked the worst argument possible, besides "I paid $600 for my phone, and it can't play anything apart form Minecraft!". If you're serious about computing and/or gaming, and getting your money's worth, you'll get a desktop. A laptop is usually by no means a suitable replacement for a workstation or gaming rig unless you're hard&patient, or have a special case where you need one that you will be willing to pay a large amount of overhead for that computing power in a laptop.

Head over to http://overclock.net/ and ask about it on the forums. Another option is to ask someone to build it for you, guy at the store etc
O.K, thanks!
