given your location, this will be about $400 after shipping.

the dual coie processor is not ideal, but does allow a gpu that can push 1920x1080 at medium settings, high for older games

I do have an i5 3470 in my dell which im using right now. Its quite decent. So the only reason i am not using it because if i keep the processor the dell will fetch an OK GOOD sale price. What would you suggest? use the i5 or sell the dell completely? If you advice to use i5, please suggest a build without processor. I can also use the segate barracuda 500 gb 7200 rpm drive. So suggest a pc build with everything compatible with my HDD and CPU and keep it below 350$ (Thats quite possible i think) -------------------------------------------
bottom line : Should i use i5 or keep it in the dell and sell dell? If u say use i5 then give a pc build compatible with it under 350$.

Yeah i think ill just sell the parts of the dell except CPU and HDD because thats the only quality in the dell. The PSU is like 275 watts and no 80+ and its not even branded. Nor is the ram . Ram is gigs at 1600 mhz but not branded. please give me a pc build for 350$ without processor and hdd.......processor will be i5 3470 ( already have ) and segate barracuda 500 gigs 7200 rpm drive (already have) . And i think a gtx 750 would be epic

Thanxxxxxxxxxx!!! This is just perfect! I wont be needing OS or DVD writer. I also dont need a 750 ti. A gtx 750 is enough. And with all the money saved i can get 4 gb of ram. You forgot the case. Can you recommend another mobo ....... in case i cant find this one and one with 4 ports ? Thanxx. :)

It might be a good solution to just buy a console, like an xbox one or ps4 with the remaining cash. If not I suggest you give the full specs of your dell pc with the i5 3470 because that's not a bad CPU so you can definitely keep that.
