post gaming computers for ~900$, monitor included aprox. 23" would be decent. no OS, keyboard, mouse needed... use pcpartpicker for builds

well depending on which CPU you want comes first.....AMD or Intel but after that I imagine someone could put a decent one together because mine was about 900 to start and it ran everything fine I just needed a graphics card upgrade but I ran a i3 intel duo but by now I would go up to at least a i5 or i7 if you want to use a Intel but for AMD I havent really looked into theirs so I dont really have an opinion on those..goodluck c:

Everything is really sexy. I would like to say that if you could try and save up and get a SSD for your OS install, then that would be a perfect build. It's amazing right now IMO, but an SSD is well worth the investment.

Get an AMD CPU (6300 is a great budget one).

I'd have to say the NVIDIA GTX 660, 8 gb RAM

a nice case, I know aerocool do some amazing ones.

A decent fan/liquid cooler, cheap keyboard (Logitech) then either a Madcatz, Roccat, or a cheap Razer mouse.

Any cheap PSU from 700-900W would cover you fine, try to go for a Corsair, Silverstone, you know, something known for good quality. Then a cheap monitor off of ebay. Did I miss anything?

System Build - PCPartPicker (I saw the link and made a build off of the site aswell)
