Hello,

I recently estimated the cost of building a custom computer (using PC Part Picker) with the FX-8320 and R9 270X (or GTX 760), minus an OS, keyboard, and mouse, and the total is roughly $690. My budget to build a computer is a convenient $700 or less. On Newegg, I notice that most, if not all computers are included with a mouse, keyboard, and pre-installed OS, all for no extra cost.

Is there a computer with the AMD FX-8320 and R9 270X or GTX 760 with a keyboard and mouse included for sale online just in case I cannot build one myself?

By the way, my goal for this computer is a $700 or under gaming computer that can run Battlefield 4 at at least medium settings at 40+ FPS. My budget is very tight, but the cost is not including tax, so I really cannot go over. I know that is a lot to ask for, but I did see a $690 computer sold on Newegg with an FX-8320 and R9 270X. If an AMD FX-8320 and R9 270X or GTX 760 is kinda overkill for playing BF4 at at least medium at 60+ FPS, then can you guys help me find a computer that can do at least that?

Thanks in advance,
- Don

Like I was telling you in the other thread. Your best bet for a prebuild is to go on cyberpower/ibuypower's website and configure something that doesn't have crappy parts. If you buy their computers elsewhere, it will have crappy psu, ram, hdd, etc. Unless you buy from good brands like digital storm which has mark-ups of about 150-200 dollars, you are always better off building it yourself. Those free things are not really "free." They are included in the build.
its hard to find a pre build pc like that pc building is not that hard u can learn it by watching few videos from you tube or just pay someone to build it for u ...
gtx 760 is better than r9 270x but at the same time its costlier.......
but both the cards will give u good fps in games u can play BF4 at ultra settings with 50+ fps with both the cards.....

True, those "deals" cut corners somewhere, and you're always gonna get a better deal by buying your own parts than buying a pre-built one. Lemme tell you, nothing is overkill for bf4. I can run bf3 easily at a constant 80+ frames on ultra settings but I can't run a lot of bf4 maps at more than 40 frames on the lowest settings. The game just isn't made well, save for a few maps that run pretty smooth. However, with that build, you can pretty much anything at decent settings and get a constant 60 frames. It's not gonna run Crysis 3 on ultra settings at 60fps, but it will be able to handle nearly any modern game.

MSI r9270x is a great friggin deal there. I bought one for my father in law and it he's playing sniper elite and hitman on ultra. I have a 760 and its great but a lot of the drivers are fucked on some games. always updating but that Phys-X is purty.

Try Ibuypower or cyberpower websites they're decent and if something is wrong they have tech support and returns

Yeah, I think if you're spending under 400 bucks on a card AMD is the way to go. If you're gaming at 120 frames I think nvidia's gonna get you more performance though
