So I need some help finding a good gaming PC at 500$ . I would like it to have a decent processor , all of the ones I've found have Pentiums and FX-4----s. After I find the right one , I'm gonna buy a GTX 770 and upgrade the GPU. I already have the things needed for a PC , keyboard ,monitor , cables , etc. I'm gonna buy it later this week , or maybe early next week. Also , I live in Indiana , USA.
