Liami wrote My brother got a computer for 500$ if you want less lag get a computer with 6-8 or more gb of ram.

Why do people always assume that RAM is everything? Most games don't require more than 2-4GB RAM on max settings.

Graphics and CPU are the most important for a gaming PC. Adding "More RAM" will simply not suffice.

As for the original poster, head on over to the PC gaming/PC support sections and read the sticky on building a Gaming PC.

Your best bet is to build your own custom PC

If you want a good opinion PM this member

If you want a pre-built then go with a Cyberpower.
If you don't care about money then go with an alienware. Alienwares are very overpriced but they are fairly good

I'd go custom built , although if you don't get the Wright things because it can blue screen a'lot ... , Be careful But yea , i'd go custom !

you know nothing you can get a custom build for 350 that runs bf3 and nearly any other game on medium settings man do some research.....

Getting some crappy bare-minimum $350 computer might play some games on low-medium settings now, but it won't be long before you can't play new games at all. If he wants a computer that will last a long time, he should save up. If you can't agree with that, "man", you should do some research of your own.

Some people have limited budgets. If you play your cards right, you can get a very capable gaming PC for under $400.

He will give you all the information you need or even give you parts you will need.

This.

And why wouldn't it be enough? He wants to play minecraft, not BF3.
