So I'm thinking about buying one of these PC's I want to know if they're worth it. I keep hearing that Intel is alot better then Amd... so would ya'll recommend any these? If someone could make a better build please do my budget is around $600-700.

These are the links

P.S. I already have windows, key board and mouse. If you could it would be nice if you did come up with a better build to add a screen but its not necessary.

Those deals aren't that good, considering you always get a crappy PSU or other crappy component. Of that list I would only consider the 4th from top, since it seems the components aren't all that bad and it makes a decent gaming PC. (http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboBundleDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.2433083).

Add in a good aftermarket cooler to overclock the FX and you're good to go!

Someone just the other day brought up a great point about the Newegg DIY deals-

They often bundle items that they are having trouble selling or have leftovers or closed out etc- sometimes it's just one sub-prime item or less-than-desirable part ... sometimes it's a whole bundling of stuff that some might call junk, others might just call leftovers or undesirables etc.

But dollar for dollar, pound for pound, you can simply pick each and every part yourself and both save money and vastly improve performance/quality per part etc.

I am absolutely saying that - if you give some more details as to your budget, intended use, general hopes vs would likes if possibles vs absolutely required etc. I myself and many others I'm sure would help you pick your stuff out.

But yeah , forget buying those bundles, you can build it yourself with your own chosen parts, get a better computer either cheaper than those prices or the same for much better systems.

Well as I stated I'm looking at a $500-$700 budget how far could I go with that. I want a computer that can run games at maybe 30fps on high or maybe if its possible 30fps on ultra. I mostly play games that arnt that intensive. also I really need a new monitor which if you could add that into. I know I'm asking a lot but thanks even if you cant help me out.
P.S.
I have a mouse keyboard and OS already.
