Are you buying a monitor: No, and I also have DVD drive.
Parts to Upgrade: New complete system, MAYBE can reause old HDD
Do you need to buy OS: No
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: None, special prices (READ BELOW) http://www.mercadolibre.com.ar/ (It's in spanish)

SLI or Crossfire: Impossible within budget
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080

Additional Comments:
Given that I live in Argentina, I won't be able to share all of the same praces, and some of the parts you reccommend may not be available here (like the Athlon X4 750). That's why I will write all of the parts I picked, together with the best price I can get (in us$)
When you reccommend a part, I will look for that part and reply with the best price available here.
(Just for those who want to invstigate more: In case you visit the website above, the real exchange rate here is US$ 1 = AR$ 10, don't trust official exchange rate)
So far I've been able to choose the next build:
CPU: A8-5600K ($88)
Motherboard: Asrock FM2A55MDGS R2.0 ($52)
RAM: 2GB DDR3 1333 ($22), and planning to add another 2gb later. (DDR31600 was us$33, too expensive for this budget)
HDD: 500GB WD Caviar Blue ($50)
All of this inside a $38 case with generic PSU and keyboard/mouse/speakers included in price.
Total: $250
If I'm lucky enough, i have a 120GB HDD that probably works, so maybe i can save $50 off that. In that case, I was thinking of getting the next build:
AMD FX-4300K with motherboard ($140) and Radeon HD6570 ($60), no HDD. The rest is the same
Total: $260 (no HDD)
Option 3: i3 3220 with motherboard ($140) and Radeon HD6570 ($60)
Total: $260 (no HDD)
This is nly a possibility, maybe that HDD doesn't work, so please read the first build as well.
Is there anything you would change?
What games would I be able to play? (in non-online games, low graphic details, 20~30 fps is good enough). I enjoy both old and new games.
Help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
