I am on an extreme budget. I am only looking to spend about $600 max and am not able to build my own computer. My main goal with this build is to get the best gaming experience possible with only minor games (Minecraft mainly w/ mods).

CyberPowerPC Gamer Ultra

Thanks for your help in advance,

Brendan.

You would be very disappointed with gaming on either one of these PCs. The 610 and 630 GT cards are bottom of the barrel video cards. They are at best HTPC cards. Find something with a minimum of a 7750 or 7770 video cards.

Mainly my knowledge on computers/wiring is minimal so I wouldnt be too good at putting it together. I think I can spend a little more, around $700 max to get the better cpu.
