How would ASUS M11BB run games?

I would avoid anything prebuilt and build it yourself. You'll get better components for the same money.

This is about $50 more than 500, but Windows is $100, which consumes a lot of the budget.

With the GTX 750 guaranteed Medium, possibly High and with the GTX 750 TI > High in almost all games except maybe ones which you will be CPU limited such as battlefield 4 but even then you can probably play at High.

The R7 260 performs worse gtx 750ti and better than the gtx 750

The Intel I3 processor is faster than the fx-6300 posted above UNLESS you overclock the fx-6300 but this can force you to buy a more expensive motherboard.

Also the CPU in this is much better than the A8 you posted. If you'd like some benchmarks I'll try to find them for you.

infact here's some benchmarks, let's take the models before our CPU's(the ones I posted and on the pc you're looking at wasn't on there so these are equivalents)

GPU's :

260x vs 7750 http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1140?vs=1044

*Note the 260 is worse than a 260x*

I'm going to go for an alternative build now, with an AMD processor for you to look at.

The intel build I posted is more upgradeable but if you want a build that's just "strong now"

Go with this

Price can be reduced if needed and both of these builds you should get another ram card in the future.

750ti vs 7750 : http://www.anandtech.com/bench/product/1140?vs=1130

Just goes to show what value you can get by building yourself though.


This build is also worth consideration.

I think this pentium build is actually my favourite because it is the one that needs the LEAST changing to make it better.

E.g it has a strong video card already for playing at medium and 8GB RAM.

All you need to do when you want to upgrade is change to an i5 or better processor and you can have a better system.
