Don't buy pre-built. Don't let your parents buy you one. Ask for gift cards to amazon, fry's, and whatever big electronics stores are around your area instead.

they are buying for themselves.. just taking advantage lol my mom mentioned building ourselves but i dont think they will handle it well..recommended parts? chassis? (also unfamiliar with building so im hoping i can learn some things as well)

So it's like a simple home pc for everyone to use and you might be gaming on it?
Or do you want like a dedicated gaming pc you want to dump a bunch of money into?

get a desktop from any of the large office stores when they're on sale + coupon....I've seen i5s in the $300 range plenty of times
for games, simply get a better graphics card

this. if you don't know how to assemble your own computer, but a discounted one instead.
