Can anyone help with finding the parts i need in order to build a decent pc. I want to be able to play games on decent settings and not lag as much as i do now and i still want to be able to do my school work on it. I already have the cd and dvd drives and usb ports. Im just looking for the internal parts can anyone help me?

A Gaming PC for $300 is a pretty tall order. I came up with this. Personally, I would suggest you save up another $100 or so and get some thing along these lines. PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks

Actually, that's a great build for ~ $300 and it doesn't need a discrete GPU because the AMD A8-5800K has a HD
7560D GPU built-in. That's about the best you can do for $300

Thats an APU, CPU+GPU in the same chip.
