Would I be able to good a decent gaming desktop with a budget of $500-$700? If not, How much do you think is minimum for a decent one*?

I'm not all that good with technology and specs and stuff, so..

*When I say decent, I obviously don't mean Skyrim at max settings with 100 fps, but probably... able to play Skyrim with playable fps on normal settings.

You can custom build a gaming PC for under $500 (Well, where I am at least) with an AMD FX-6300 6 Core, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD etc. Thats not including a monitor however.

I would look into doing a custom built pc, and buy the parts and assemble it your self. It will save you $$$!

Don't listen to them. I've done research on this topic for about five months straight.
I found someone on YouTube who can help you out. Here's the link:

This is a 600 dollar build that can run Battlefield three on max settings with 40-50 fps.
Totally worth it.

The best one I've found in that price range is this:www.dell.com/us/p/alienware-x51/pd. Of course not the best with a $699 price tag but it will do what I presume you need it to. Besides it may not be the best but hey at least you can have a little customisation and brag you have an Alienware.

Or do what I did (Probably better option) Save up a bit more and builkd one (If you don't know maybe family/friends know how)

Maybe not a Desktop (Most you can get for that is like 3 GB Ram, Dual Core AMD 2.2 GHz, and N-Vidia really outdated)

But: I found a really good In-Budget Laptop.

You may have a little problem finding a good gaming desktop with a good graphics card with that amount, but keep trying.
