Hi , I am new to building you're own computer i was thinking of buying a standalone gaming computer (without building) but the prices were just through the roof :) so I stumbled over this website and i would like to ask if anyone can help me with giving me a good , solid computer build that could run Battlefield in 1024x768 , nothing fancy I was thinking for running it Medium~high with a solid 30~60FPS? is that possible? if not please give me a build that is good enough to run other titles on medium~high on 30~60fps , thanks.
PS:I am not only looking to run Battlefield i am looking for a computer that runs ALL~most games on med , with that resolution , thanks.

Thats acctually a terrible build. That psu is so cheap that it will most likely blow up the first time you turn on your computer. I would do something more like this:

This will play all of your games at that resolution at med-max. All quality parts and unlike the above build, has a good psu and a case which actually has fans:) This build will serve you quite well.
