    I can't build a CPU but...

    I don't feel comfortable building a gaming CPU but can anyone recommend one to buy that's already built?

    How much do you want to spend? What are you looking for it to do?

        What all do you need? Just the tower prebuilt? Do you need a mouse, keyboard and monitor as well? Very important in how the budget is structured.

        Also how sure are you that you can't build it yourself? Its really not that difficult and your money will go much farther if you do it yourself, though I completely understand if that is not a feasible option for you.

          I would need a mouse and a keyboard. As for monitor I have an old one but have a 42" tv that is not being used that I would love to use as a monitor.

          The main thing with building is that I have NO clue as to what all I'd need to buy and have never put one together before. I'd love to go that way but it sounds tough.

            Youtube is your friend. 100s of Youtube videos done by 8 and 10 yr old kids showing you how to build a PC. Seriously.......most of the how to do something videos is made by young kids it seems.

            Hell even NewEgg has a how to video on Youtube. So just go there and type in how to build a PC.
