300 Dollar Mini ITX Gaming PC

[MakeMeTacoss]

I wanted a 300 dollar mini ITX Gaming pc. The PC doesn't have to be great but I want room for upgrading, but be able to run games at decent frame rates. I want an APU Processor to keep it simple. I don't need a hard drive or OS because I already own a Hard drive with a OS on it. I would prefer all of the parts to come off from new egg. I only want 8 GB of ram. The rest of the build is up to you guys, Thank You.

This is the best you're gonna get being that picky. You could probably get an A6 if you were willing to buy from other merchants.

Yeah, that is the best setup you'll get with such a low budget. If you can get a $400-$450 budget, you'd be able to have a discrete GPU and be upgradeable.

Edit: Gave it a shot anyways

If you could up your budget to $400-$420 you could at least get a 7850/750ti and 8gb of ram, a G3258 which can be overclocked with a z97 mobo. Just thought I'd give another option to APUs.
