So I'm on the market for a cheap gaming build. Nothing too elaborate, but a build that will play SWTOR (I primarily play games on the Xbox) on medium to high settings on 1920x1080 without (hopefully) any issues. Of course it would be fun to be able to play other games in the future (DA:I comes to mind) but SWTOR is the priority here. My budget is around 400 to 450 euros (I live in Slovenia in Europe). I don't have any preference regarding brands etc., and I have no experience in overclocking. I don't think there is anything I can salvage from my old pc, with the exception of the case, which I plan on reusing. I currently have a Corsair CX500 psu but that will likely also have to replaced. I don't need a dvd drive or OS, and I have the other peripherals.

Thank you very much, I hope I provided enough details.

Well the PC is really old so it didn't occur to me to post the specs here (I use a laptop for pretty much everything, but I can only play games there on the lowest settings).

If it's impossible to build anything remotely good with my budget I can increase it a bit, that would just mean I'd buy the computer a bit later than I thought. What a "minimum good" build? I'm complicating things aren't I...
