pre-built cheap gaming desktop site

Closed

Anyone know a site that lets you either build a PC and have it sent pre-built or buy decent gaming pc's prebuilt that isn't very expensive?

Also one that takes paypal.

Right now the only option I am seeing is New egg but would like to shop around a little.

Looking to spend $600-700 btw.

I am not looking for a PC that runs games on ultra, just something that can play recent games even on medium, 600-700 is well enough I already found some on new egg but I am looking to compare to other sites.

also a monitor,keyboard etc is not needed.

the PC isn't for me, otherwise I would build it my self. GF wants a computer and wants to be able to play games on it, she wants it soon and I wouldn't be able to help her build it for a month since I am in another state till august.

You could easily buy the parts for her and have her set it up herself. Just need a decent FAQ/wiki with a couple screenshots.
Don't assume she can't do it. I'm told building her own computer was one of the most rewarding things my girlfriend did.

Now if it's a computer for your mother, that's something I might understand. Even more so if she's on the north side of 50.

Well I guess I will just order one off newegg without a GPU I can buy the GPU separate and have her install it.

Was looking at this one (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16883227367) and Ill probably order a GTX550 and walk her through putting it in shouldn't be too difficult, but she doesn't know a thing about PC's doesnt even know what a GPU or CPU are.

It's like Lego today. Just buy the basic parts and they fit together without any need for technical knowledge. You'll be saving A LOT of money, don't really see the point of pre-built in the current industry unless it's your very first computer.
