Motto: Death can have me when it earns me
Hello everyone, Im going to keep this short and simple. I recently sold my gaming consoles and would like to go into PC gaming.

What I ask of you folks are some good PCs to run games such as GTA IV, The Sims 4, Battlefield etc. I would also prefer spending under $700.

Build your own. Pre-built PC's are terrible for value and you'll get a cheap crappy case and power supply unit, pre-built's usual have terrible hardware also, advertised as 'gaming' machines yet couldn't run minesweeper.

Watch some Linus tech tips videos and the PC building subreddit is a good place to go!

Reddit is full of normies and idiots. There are some good guys over there that know their shit but there's so much ebola there too, more than the likes of here and 7S. LTT is good, but there are many, many more good YouTubers with similar channels.

On topic-Pretty sure I already helped OP in the building section anyway, or someone else did, me thinks.
