I know, $400 won't get me much, but I have an excuse: Its only for TWO games, which are Fallout 3 and Fallout New Vegas, and both are games from 2008/2010.
My old PC maxed both out, but sadly, the motherboard died and I was sadly left to play these two on PS3. The only reason why I want these specifically on PC, is the mods. This game is the funnest game I have ever played with mods. I can care less about playing other games (Except older games that will run if FO3/NV run.)
Anyways, I need a PC, under $400, that can run it on Max Settings. The sys requirements to max the game require at least 4GB ram and a 1GB Video Card. (That was my setup on my former PC)
So... I need a PC that can max the game, and want to build it myself since I heard some nasty stories about prebuilt PC's from places like Ibuypower and such. ALSO, I would like to say that I need a setup that can easily air itself out. I am a bit scared of expensive computers now, because my motherboard failed in my old one due to overheating, despite the fact that I was told by "Experts" that the cooling would be fine.
So thanks!
What I already Have:
1. Wireless Card
2. Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse
3. Windows 8 Discs
Notes:
1. I cannot go over $400 by no means. I am a very, very, broke student and it takes FOREVER for me on my salary and bills to save this. I'm talking maybe about 4-5 months. I already am half way there.
2. I only want it for 2 games really, but don't want a console because I want the mods for these games.
3. I already have a monitor and such.
4. Must be Windows. I do not like Mac or Linux.
