So I plan on starting my first YouTube channel soon! I'll be playing Minecraft on it. Yay!

Not so fast. I have a bit of a problem. I'm not sure if it's that good to only have 600 dollars for a PC, Windows 8, and a monitor. (Don't worry about the monitor. I have that covered personally.)

So around 100 dollars for the operating system.
That leaves me around 500 for the PC. The lower the price, the better. The least is 480.

The point of this PC is to play non-graphic-intensive games like Minecraft at High-Max setting at a good FPS while recording for just under 500 US dollars.
Not too much to ask for? I hope not.

Thanks!
