This is typical of what you will be able to find new for $400 - $500.

The low end gfx cards included might be OK if you game at one of the 720p resolutions. 1280x720, 1366x768... and you are happy with mid settings.

You may want to browse around ebay if you or your dad have a PayPal account.

That will be difficult, but if you look hard enough you can find some good computers on sale online. I can only suggest that you look EVERYWHERE.
I just found this one on amazon if you don't mind the fact that it's used then it could be great for you. http://www.amazon.com/HP-Pavilion-p7-1510-Desktop-Proce...

Then, if it doesn't have enough gfx power as is, you could add this card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

About your mouse question... maybe you shouldn't be looking to buy a high end mouse if you can't afford more than $400 for a PC.

I'm getting a used one and a Tartarus from a friend who's buying the newer stuff, there the 2014 editions and like I was saying I'm getting kind of a bundle 75 for both as he's buying the
Logitech g600 and a razed black widow now, and they've barely been used I mean he only used the naga for LoL and the tartutas haven't been used since he got it cause it didn't fit his hand we'll so he just used the keyboard in his razer blade

The CyberPower is better.
To find out how good the CPU is you mainly need to look at the number of cores and the speed (in GHz,) but more cores doesn't always mean a better CPU, 4 cores is about as high as you want to go. A dual core processor is good enough for most needs but quad core is better (especially for gaming.)
As for the RAM, currently you want to look for 4GB, or if you can afford it, 8GB. If you're comparing an 8GB PC to a 10GB PC get the 8GB because it's probably going to be cheaper and there's hardly any difference between the two.
When it comes to the HDD people are all getting 1TB but all you really need is 500GB and if that's not enough in a year or two you can add another internal HDD (if there's room in the tower) or get an external HDD because they've gotten pretty cheap.

This is a good one but the screen is a little small, it has a graphics card and if you want to overclock your CPU it can be a 3.5GHz.

These are pretty good too.
