Hi i am looking to build a new computer for gaming but the process seems a little complicated so I was looking at cheaper prebuilt systems that i could add components to eg GPU and i cam across this company on ebay called Vibox, there pc's are really cheap and i cant really see anything wrong with them but can someone just tell me if they are good value.

They are pretty cheap, and are good value since its cheaper than the sum of its parts if bough individually, but it is nowhere near approaching what I would call a gaming PC.

I would call that thing an office PC at best, lowest CPU in the current gen with the lowest GPU in the last gen. No way could you game on that.

I would learn the basic steps of memorization. There are 5 components that make up a computer. Motherboard, Processor, Ram, Graphics Card(Either integrated on the motherboard, or standalone in a PCIE slot on the motherboard) Hard Drive. You put the pieces together like a puzzle, and then install windows. You insert the disk and follow the directions. Vwala, though you will need an optical drive to insert the disk into. At any rate if you don't/can't learn then http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/
