I have been wanting a new computer so that I can play World of Tanks and other games with better quality settings & reduce incidents of severe lag. Currently I have been using a Gateway NV53 laptop,but even on the lowest settings it heats up (180F) and lags.
So, it would take me a year to save the $1.5 - $2k I'd need to purchase a decent gaming desktop. In the meantime, do you think that if I bought a budget desktop like this (Dell OptiPlex 960 SFF / Core 2 Duo E8400 @ 3.00 GHz / 8GB DDR2 / 1TB HDD/DVD-RW/WINDOWS 7 PRO 64 BIT) for $200, I'd get some improved game-play while I save, or should I just put the $200 in the pot for the higher end desktop?
