I really need a decent pc for around $500 usd. I am looking to record minecraft on high settings. This might be alot to ask for a small amount of money but i don't need a fancy computer. It doesnt need to look cool or anything. I just need one that can run minecraft really well and also other games on medium-high settings. I do not need a keyboard, mouse or monitor either. Thank you. Also i would like windows 7 not 8.

Oh I didn't read that part. I just read some of it and then go on with the build xD But I play minecraft on my laptop which cost 300 dollars. It has an Intel Pentium.. I don't know how much ram I have one here because I am lazy to check.. I use optifine and get a soild 60 FPS on a lot of servers..
