I'm trying to build a gaming pc on an extremely tight budget and I don't own a desktop to upgrade. Rather than buying everything separately, I think it might be cheaper for me to buy a prebuilt machine with an i3 CPU then adding a low end GPU and upgrading the RAM. Is this a dumb idea, and what problems could I run into? I'm aiming to run games like GW2 on a 1440 x 900 monitor with medium settings at around 30 fps.
Another reason for doing this is that it'll take care of all the bits like PSU, wfi, hard drive, operating system, optical drive, card reader, case etc that seem to cost significantly more if I buy them separately and that I'm bound to forget one of.
Thanks very much for your time
