    So, is there a gaming computer that is good enough to run SFM well and other games? I'm also looking for a PC that's both cheap and the offer can last up to like 2-4 years. My budget is near $300-500. You can recommend building parts.

    Nah u can buy cheap pre-built pcs then put in low-power GPUs. The gtx 1070 is low powered as fuck and it's best on market in terms of price to performance. And considering ur budget is £500 ehich is like 560 bucks I reckon u could pull it off. If u can find an i3 (skylake) or even i5 system for £100 buy it then buy a graphics card then put it in. If the power supplys wattage is too low U could always find a 300-500w power supply for £50 to replace the current power supply with.

    U looking to build a system or buy one? Also have u been inspired by lost cos I assume so after seeing ur comments on his page

    Try and dig deep for a decent i5 system tho so u get less of a bottleneck

    http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/Dell-OptiPl...500GB-HDD-Windows-10-/252591190678?nav=SEARCH just make sure that whatever u buy should have a recent CPU inside. It's no good if it's a 5 yesr old i7 that even a modern i3 could beat. Do u need a monitor aswell?

    Also add me on Skype @louis_jerky for further help

    Ah thanks. But I think I got what I needed. Some guy on Linus Tech Tips gave me advice and gave me a build that I can use:

    It's a bit expensive and it takes all of my money, but I think it'll do.

    That build is good for the price, Might want to look into getting another case fan because looks like it only brings two but can fit three, You might need an extra fan because AMD Graphics cards tend to run hotter than Nvidia GPUs but depending on where you put the PC, Two might be good enough

    Tbh, I really don't know how to build a computer. Got any sites that can teach me how to build one?

    I watched the same vid over and over again for like a week. Really it's not hard if u do everything systematically. Study the motherboard you'll buy and take noteof what cables go where. The cable management and putting in screws in precarious places is really the hardest bit.
    When i get home I'll tell u where everything in ur build goes

    Tips:

    This video is pretty good for the build itself:

    NP, There should be some step by step guides if you look for them on google but videos are better imo

    I built my own and it cost 1500 dollars
    it only took me 4 hours since I did so much research
    I wouldn't reccomend building one though because Windows 10 alone costs 120 dollars
