Post Can someone reccomend me a computer
Can somebody reccomend me a computer in the prices between 500 to 1800 bucks? Specs dont really matter to me, just as long as it has about a gig of ram and a pci-e slot or two.

Nope. :( All parts ordered seperately so you gotta build it yourself.. it's really quite a learning experience.

I don't know how HP/Dell/others are with just buying towers from them, so I can't recommend anything that's prebuilt.

eMachines are pretty solid for a good price.

Yeah i would really rather get a pre built one. How hard is it to build one? Im a retard so i think i might be a tad difficult for me.

Theres websites that allow you to make the custom computer and then they build it for you, and send it to you.

They're solid PCs and most of them don't involve the ass-rape fee that Alienware and Dell and everyone else charge.

Building isn't too hard. But if your parts are broken, or you're too dumb not to use a static bracelet, or if the parts just aren't compatable, it can put a longer waiting period for your machine.
