I imagine this is slightly taboo on here, but...... I am in need of a new computer, one that I can do daily things on as well as moderate gaming. The catch is that I have to get it from Bestbuy (I know this is probably a crime) because I can use a credit card there. My price range is under $1400. If anyone could suggest one of the computers from their website it would be most helpful.

Thanks Steve

See if this one has what you need by checking the specs. It has a powerful CPU and a decent gfx card for medium gaming at 1080p and lower resolution.

Another one with slightly better graphics capability

In fact, you should go down this list on the left side of the page and check off what you want and/or need in a PC. I don't know the size HDD you need, nor if you want to spend the extra $ for a SSD. Little things like that can make a difference in price...

"...because I can use a credit card there. My price range is under $1400..." If you are using a credit card because you do not have a ton of cash on hand then understand $1400 is a TON of money for a PC. Unlike the old days when a good PC was well over $1000, you can get a great laptop new for a couple hundred dollars.

Maybe post a few games you run. This PC (i3 based ) might do it for $500. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/dell-inspiron-desktop-intel-core-i3-8gb-memory-1tb-hard-drive-black/2152046.p?id=1219530041654&skuId=2152046

Can you post what your old PC was, and say if you were happy with it?

Can you add a video card to a PC ?
