Hello, I am currently looking to build my first gaming desktop. I do not need a monitor, but i would need just about everything else. I am looking for something in the 800-900 dollar range. I usually play games like Smite so something with a little more graphics power would be fine with me. I do not plan on overclocking so if we could skip that it would be nice. The only other thing I can think of that might be a bit difficult is that I only have access to WiFi in my home, so I would need some sort of WiFi card. Thanks for any help.

Approximate Purchase Date: e.g.: this week

Budget Range: $800-$900

System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming

Are you buying a monitor: No

Do you need to buy OS: Yes

Location: Olympia, Washington United States
