best gaming desktop 500 image
Anonymous
Apparently, I am not good with putting parts together, because the price for the things I've got listed is over 1000 dollars, and I have heard of people with amazing gaming desktops for less than 500.
I'm willing to spend between 600-1000. Under 600 or close to it would be optimal until I get a job.
What I have so far, is:
Monitor : LG - 24" Widescreen Flat-Panel LED Multifunction HDTV Monitor
Tower : Corsair - Obsidian Series 650D Mid-Tower Case
Power Supply : Corsair - Enthusiast Series 850-Watt ATX/EPS CPU Power Supply
CPU : Intel - Core⢠i7-4770K 3.5GHz Processor
Ram : NVIDIA - GeForce GTX 650 Ti 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express Graphics Card
Fan : Corsair - Hydro Series H100i Dual 120mm Fan CPU Cooler
I don't know if that is all I need, but it turned out being extremely expensive.
My first question is, would this be a good gaming computer?
My second question is, is there a cheaper set up that would be just as good?
Answer
If your main purpose for your build is gaming, then I recommend getting the Intel 4670K instead of the 4770K, the reason why, is that there is almost no game on the market to date that totally takes advantage of Hyper-threading and in some cases it has been known that hyper-threading can actually drop your FPS in some games.
What I recommend doing with the extra $100 you would be spending on the 4770K and invest it in a better GPU, something on the lines of the GTX660ti or the GTX760. The GPU is were you will see the most improvement in gaming all together as games now a days are more GPU intense then they are CPU intense.
Other then that, very very nice build you have going. Also one other thing, if you want to throw a little more money towards a better GPU after saving the $100, you can get a PSU that has 600W and it will still be enough power to support everything you have. Now a days everything is about power saving not how much power you have like it was about 5 years ago. GPU's don't even use a ton of power like they use to.
Hope this helped you,

What are good gaming desktops, that are also moderately cheap?
BAW
Could anyone please point me in the right direction as to what would be a good gaming desktop, that is also moderately cheap. (Price range of around $400-500 USD) I know next to nothing about computer specs, and whats good, and whats not. Any help would be appreciated.

For $500 a good gaming desktop is hard to find. Here is some I found with good reviews but you can't expect a great performance:

If you could afford $600 this one is good:
