Title: Gaming PC Post by: airsoftmodels on June 29, 2014, 07:20:29 pm John, you are considering building a gaming PC, as discussed on video game outsiders. I wanted to show you the machine I built a few weeks ago. Its an AMD A8 6600K 3.9 Ghz with an ASUS A88X-PRO motherboard. If I were using it for gaming, all it needs is 1 or 2 high end video cards, here's the link.

Total for everything was about $485, and you get a very upgradeable system that beats the $500 Dell's out there IMHO.

Buy all my stuff through slickdeals.net. Paid about $900 for this a year ago. Doesn't play some games at ultra settings but definitely good enough for my standards.
