Before you say anything about tons being better, I'm on a budget and this was the cheapest, half decent computer I could find.
Well here it is;
Dell Inspiron Desktop - 4GB Memory - 500GB Hard Drive (The four gigs are expandable to 8)
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit operating system preinstalled
AMD Athlon II X2 processor with Radeon HD 4200 graphics
HDMI ports
Built-in 10/100/1000 Gigabit Ethernet LAN
319.00 dollars
This is the monitor that I'm looking into.
Acer - S2 Series 20" Widescreen LED Monitor - Glossy Black 100.00 dollars

What do you want to do with the PC? It would be a waste spending $319 on a PC that can hardly run anything and I doubt is any better than what you are currently using. You would be better off saving until you have at least $600 for a decent PC.

I wouldn't go and buy a PC from an electronics shop. Just build one its the same price as a PC from electronics shop but ten times better. Gaming computer? i7 is you're friend. Costs 1000$

Stop giving useless advice. i7 is not needed for gaming, i5 is what you need and is far cheaper. What you need for gaming is a good graphics card, but don't cheap out on other components.

I'm not giving useless advice. It might be useless to you but it's not to me. Now I did my job here. Good bye.

Don't mention the word alienware. Honestly, build your own PC. You get loads of advantages such as choosing your own components and the ability to upgrade in the future, and it's a lot cheaper. Save up, then make a topic in the PC gaming section or PM me and we can give you a list of components for a decent PC.
