Hey I'm trying to build a cheap gaming computer that can still play games at decent setting, any suggestions? Would like to spend less that 500, a lot less if possible
>>
Keep saving up...a monitor/cheap keyboard/mouse/tower alone will be around 150

It's only shilling when someone is trying to sway your opinion by misrepresentation. Last I checked, I never advised him to buy from us. It's easier than me having to be dicked around to pull an image and post it on here of our base system outline for gaming PCs.

but hey, you win. pic related.

pirate Windows 10 or 7 and build your shit inside a cardboard box or on your motherboard box. Go to your local community college and pick up a keyboard, mouse, and monitor that they're throwing away. Or go on Craigslist and get a dirt cheap one. Now you have 500 to spend on the shit that matters.

Finance a desktop for $40/m at ironsidecomputers. I'm still paying mine off but it's future proof for the next 3 years. Pays every single game no matter what at ultra 50-60 fps
>>
If you're on a tight budget but want max performance, consider getting used stuff and cheap out on the casing. I don't get why everyone MUST buy everything new. $500 can get you a decent PC.

It can, with a decent case too.

What hardware do you have currently? Either upgrade that or search craigslist or ebay or whatever local flavor you prefer. Buying new for half a grand is impossible. I mean you could but that pc is gonna suck ass, so you'll just blow those money.

Go second hand and with 500 you can have a very strong build. Just buy a solid psu. If you have any basic pc and trading knowledge you can build a very strong pc. Even with warranty on some parts.

>>51731995

with this GPU R9 380.
It should be around 450-500$

SSD is a must in a cheap build. It is the best way to get a lot more performance from a cheap machine

No its not
If i only want to game on that pc i would rather spend $50 more on a GPU. An SSD is something you can easily get later on
