I've seen a 350 dollar pc build that runs gta on medium settings but i'm wondering if anyone can manage a $300 build as i'm broke but need something to game on. If anyone could help then thanks.

What i plan to play : Minecraft mainly

Do i have a monitor? : Yes

Do i need a case? : Yes but even the worst will work

How long do i want it to last? : As long as it will

Am i going to be doing heavy gaming on it? : Wasn't really planning on it but if i do i'll put it on low settings.

Thanks to anyone who can help.

If you took away the monitor I could probably build you one but not much you can do with like 220 bucks

If you can manage a little over budget;

Only has 4GB RAM so some more demanding games will refuse to launch until you add another 4GB RAM. You'll also want to add an HDD when possible for mass storage, but the SSD will be good for now.

Include rebates this is great. Has a decent GPU which takes advantage of duel graphics.

Take off the GPU for no rebates included

has 8 gigs of RAM unlike ^ him. You can OC this cpu a bit.

But the CPU doesn't have on-die graphics so it can't use dual graphics?

R7 240 is shit. APU's are considerably better. 860k doesn't have integrated graphics. PSU is shit. OP can't "take advantage of duel graphics". OP can't "take off the GPU" since 860k has no iGPU.
