No operating systems
Really though, you wouldn't get much for gaming unless you were playing on low settings in a low resolution or playing some basic online game like runescape
A console would be a better option for $300, but even that may be out of your reach
If you could save up to $600 you could get a nice am3+ rig with an r9 280 and FX8320 (no operating system) which could play many new games in ultra settings in 1,920 x 1,080.
