Take this into account: I have played every game outside of Diablo 2 @ 8 FPS for years.
Anything is an improvement.

My brother said he's going to Microcenter on Saturday.
What items would it be cheaper to get there rather than online?

I think I can get a monitor there for cheaper, don't really need anything that exquisite.


Def good builds, can run pretty much everything on high graphics
+1 for this.

Purchased all but the monitor/mouse/keyboard via paypal
Where do I get the cheap OS? I'd like the best Windows, currently I use whatever free version they offer on a piece of crap Dell computer from 6 years ago (still windows 10 whatever though)

Windows is not really cheap tbh, you can take an iso of win10 and install it without activating it but you will have some feature disable until you activate it, or there is the not legal way...
altough if you have a key still on your laptop you can use that key and just download the windows version the key can activate, otherwise you will have to buy a new copy of windows..

Word, I got mostly all of the money for this build for free by playing poker here and cashing out my fg so.. haha.
I think I have like $95 left on my paypal after buying all the other parts.

If Windows won't be an issue what can/should I put the $95 towards?

I could use a chair but I think I could just go to staples or something for that.

win10 home edition is currently 149.99$ on their website, there is some providers that just give they key for less but i couldn't find one for the US since im in Canada

i would suggest good speaker or headset but other then that you should be good !
