best gaming desktop under 700 image
B. Garrett
I have decided that I want to build a desktop primarily for gaming and I don't know where to begin when it comes to all the parts. I am looking for suggestions on processors, graphics cards, hard drives, cases, and power supplies .and I'm looking to keep my budget under $700 for the entire build if possible.
Answer
Will start with a carefully selected $831:

Now, you make the painful cutbacks in what you are willing to give up.
This does not include monitor, keyboard, mouse, audio output (amplified USB speakers/headset)
Here is the CPU Hierarchy:

You might be bottlenecking the HD 7850 with an i3-3220, but it cuts the price.
You could reduce the motherboard a little. A B75 gives up overclocking, though these locked clock CPUs without the K cannot be OC anyway, but RAM, Graphics, and an HDD accelerator SSD could be added in a Z77, and I show a 2 PCIe x16 3.0 for adding a HD 7850 later, but you can use a cheaper motherboard.
You can trim a little out of the power supply. I show one that could cover a second HD 7850, but there are 500W and 600W coolmax with rebates at Newegg that have enough to cover the system. Use single rail 80 plus and check game-debate for the minimum 12V amps and stay above it to have margin and efficiency.
You can cut to a 500GB HDD
You can cut your graphics

I have already removed the CPU cooler and cut from i5-3570K to get to $831.
Always better to start high and painfully trim, but you do that yourself.
The $700 video is heavily unbalanced.
The CPU bottlenecks. The graphics card is monster power and put against a split rail power supply.
The RAM is CAS 11 and discontinued and should have been.
Motherboard is old design.

The absolute best $700 or under gaming desktop computer?

I want to purchase a good gaming desktop computer for $700. Your suggestions can be of computers that can be bought online or off. The computer will be used for gaming, and that's about it.
The games I would like to play are: Battlefield 2, Counter-Strike Source, Company of Heroes, and possibly WoW.
Answer
Maximum-PC just build a $700 computer in their latest Mag. It's on the cover. It is definitely the best thing you can get. If you don't know how to build your own computer at all, then get a friend that knows how and have him help. If he's like me, then He/she'd love to do it for you.
You have to go the DIY route because you're not going to find anything decent at the price. OEM builds are mostly rip offs!
