Hey guys I had a quick Q are building your own cpus more cheaper than ones from ppl like dell ... and my main question was does any one know a build that is around or less than 300 (pref. less) that will allow me to 1. game ... 2. watch youtube and surf the net with about 10-20 tabs open ... 3. Do word with around 10-20 tabs open 4. I would also like to stream while playing games 5. do premier pro and stuff . I already have a moniter and a hard drive and a case and i believe some ram ... the main things i really want to know is cpu motherboard and gpu ... Also please tell me if my price is waaay to low for those three things ... im coming from a cheap ass 250 dollar laptop it is a E-300 apu and im done with it ... thanks in advance ...
The games i play are ... planetside 2 and league of legends ... I really would like to play more fps but this e-300 ...

I am thinking ill only be able to buy amds for that price am i right?

Thanks again

Decent gaming with the latest games really takes around a $600 budget. You can for around $300 Watch videos and stream with a good number of tabs open. Same for word. Streaming while playing games is more on your internet connection than anything else. Though it also takes a moderately high end computer.

For something capable of playing games a couple of years old and your other requests that 300 is doable barely. Building your own computer allows you to get exactly what you want for less than the customization costs from places like dell. For work station PCs that you can conceivably put a moderately priced graphics card into for low end gaming you are better off getting a boxed brand computer. I'm not advocating getting a...

I'm not advocating getting a gateway or a dell, but their buying volumes and prepackaged software incentives allow them a competitive advantage over building your own if you are looking at a generic low to medium end pc.

Allright assuming you have a monitor, case, and hard-drive, (I don't begin to trust " and i believe some ram" for a moderately acceptable gaming performance you will really be looking at an a-8 amd apu (a better processor and discrete would be preferable but not affordable if you are buying new used/ refurb changes things) The other question/issue is power supply.

I would really perfer two sticks of faster ram and a bigger power supply for future upgrades.

CPU AMD A8-5600K 3.6GHz Quad-Core $89.99
CPU Cooler Rosewill RCX-Z80-AL 33.2 CFM Sleeve Bearing $9.99
Motherboard Asus A55BM-E Micro ATX FM2+ $47.99
Memory G.Skill NS Series 4GB (1 x 4GB) DDR3-1333 $37.99
Power Supply SeaSonic 350W SFX12V $48.98
Total: $234.94

Make one thread, and one thread only. I'm no grammar nazi, but if you want to be taken even the slightest bit seriously...

then stoipp talkaing likke you haven uo idea howaf to use the englsihdf language ........... and make a proerp request.... anfe use your keyboard to sapce things perroply, and its really cool if you dont make a huge run on sentence saying the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

Try this :

"Hello, I am looking for a good pc build.

My budget is 300USD.

- I will be doing heavy browsing; youtube/facebook/whatever
- I will be gaming, games like League Of Legends and Planet Side 2
- I would like to stream while I play these games
- I will be using adobe premier
- I have ram, but it is older and Im unsure if it will work
- I have a case, hard drive, and power supply already

thank you"


I cant imagine how many people are blowing you off simply for being annoying. This may sound rude, but this is practical advice. You want mature, intelligent people to respond to you, how about you show them a little courtesy?
