I need a rig, DIY or pre built don't care, that really only needs to handle running SWTOR and like vent. Thats basically all I imagine I'm gonna use it for. But as the thread title suggests I'm on a strict budget but don't know how much it is yet so as cheap as possible. for argument sake lets say anything under $500

Approximate Purchase Date: next 2 weeks

Budget Range: 200-500 but cheaper the better (after rebates)

System Usage from Most to Least Important: game Star Wars: The Old Republic, vent, web surfing

Parts Not Required: i have a monitor and i have a windows 7 OS

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: new egg mainly, but any reliable site is fine with me

Country: US

Parts Preferences:i have no real preference as long as its reliable

Overclocking: no

SLI or Crossfire: no

Additional Comments:all I'm going to be doing is playing SWTOR and running vent at the same time so if its cheaper than 500 that would be awesome
