How cheap can a decent gaming rig be?

Solution
"Decent" is a relative term. What some people would consider "decent", others would consider unplayable. If your budget is around $300-$400, you'd be better off just purchasing an off the shelf system. That way you'd get a completely function computer (with OS).
