Now days computing systems can cost a fortune if they are bought assembled, and if you wish to buy a system that can support modern games, that a whole new number game. Any decent gaming computer would set you back by at least 750$ if bought assembled but by looking around in the Internet you could "build your own" computer for way cheaper ........
All you need to do is search the net and you will be surprised to see how much money you can save not only that but assembling your own computer teaches you a lot about the computer in case you ever need to upgrade your computer in the future
Here's an example of a computer that i built, it has the potential to run any game that has come out till date or at least all the games that I've encountered and believe me that's a lot of games .......
For the case i chose this one because it was made from steel and had a convenient handle on it......
i needed around 4GB of ram to support games so i went with...
I chose a micro ATX, ADM3+ compatible mother board, in case i need to upgrade in the future....
i went with an AMD processor as they are cheap and have a high performance level in this price range...
the power supply will wary depending on the specs you desire, for my case i used the
for fast and efficient game data reading/writing i found this to be suitable....
installing a load of games takes a load of space, for me 500 GB should be enough but the rate of transfer also changes the quality of the game play, i went with 6GB/s...
now comes the big one, its probably the most expensive part of your "build", the graphics card.
depending on your budget and the kind of performance you want it varies the cost massively. I went all out with mine so it set me back quite a bit......
but for a modest computer that will still run almost all games try this,it saves you 60$
All this costed me (with the high end GPU) 400$ with delivery charges but i already had the keyboard mouse and the monitor from my previous computer so if you include that, it would come to a grand total of 450$ but if you decide to go for the mid ranged GPU then you should manage (including the cost of the keyboard, mouse and monitor) just under 400$ and 350$ excluding it. So there you go you just saved 300$-400$ dollars just by assembling your own computer. You could try cutting down further to get the price even lower.....so now you can enjoy those games without burning a whole in your pocket....enjoy.
