I am looking into building my own gaming PC, but I don't know what parts I need and what would be the best for what I am looking for, so all the help I can get would be great. I would like to build a PC mainly for playing minecraft. I would like to be able to play vanilla and modded (40+ mods) on high settings without lag (60+ FPS). I would also like to be able to play on large servers without lag too. Also, I would like the PC to be able to load Internet Explorer (or any other web browser) fast and download items fast. One more thing, I would like to be able to play flash games like Happy Wheels without lag. I will not be playing any bigger games like Battlefield, because I mainly play xbox 360. I do not want to spent over $600, I could go a bit higher but not a lot more. Thank you to all who take the time to read this and help me out!
