Here's my best suggestion (if you are willing to build from scratch). Read some guides on the net, and spec out the computer at your price point + $200-$500. Put it all in your cart on Newegg.com and TigerDirect.com

This is what I did and suggest:
Save some money up (or wait for a tax return) and start from scratch. Hit up newegg.com during a sale event and try to spend close to $700, maybe a little past it if you can afford it, on newish to a year old computer hardware. Have some friends nearby you when you are looking at parts…

The problem with what you're asking is that the quality of any given rig is entirely dependent upon what you want out of it. If all you play is Angry Birds or something along those lines, then pretty much any computer would suffice. Afterall, why would you spend even a dime more for performance that you won't be…

I liked your comment, then realized you didn't read his specs well. He doesn't have a MB intergrated graphics card, he has one of the AMD dual processor + GPU models. Its a quad-core 3.4 processor with a Radeon HD 7660D GPU, and it can be used with crossfire. Honestly, he could just get a decent video card and…

your computer looks good enough to play minecraft... which is the only game worth playing these days... amirite? lol. j/k everyone else here is right on the money with suggestions.

Here's my Rig, built in February, costs about $1,000 give or take (that's including Win 7 Ultimate)

So you have decent RAM and your processor isn't garbage, but like it was mentioned, you don't have a graphics card, which is your biggest problem. Another problem is that you have a HP. Chances are your case is small, and upgrading pieces in it will be a pain in the ass, not to mention once you get a good video card…

As others have stated, your main bottleneck is your CPU (which is actually listed as an "APU," meaning it's an integrated CPU/Graphics processor). This puts you in a tricky position: you can upgrade them both to what you need, but you're looking to upgrade the two most expensive pieces of your computer.

Your main issue is that your "graphics card" is actually a chip onto the motherboard of your computer, its called "integrated graphics"...you can't really game with integrated graphics, you need a separate card that plugs into a pci-e slot on your motherboard, not one that's built into it.

New ip would be nice, but I wouldn't mind a revival of some older IP like Wild Arms or Legend of Dragoon. Hell, i'd settle for monster rancher at this point.

Here is the real origin of Slender(Gentle)man nerds.

I was just going to say he really missed going for an over 9000 joke, beat me to it.

You sir, have won the internets for today.

When I purchased my PS3 in '08, I was looking forward to all of the JRPGs it would have. This current generation not only disappointed me in regards to JRPG releases but it made me lose interest in the genre. Of course I still bought Valkyria Chronicles, Cross Edge (despite its low scores) and FFXIII. I even bought an…

I don't expect any new, major ones till at least fall 2014. Maybe some uprezzed ports before then, or ps2 remastered titles.

I would imagine rushing to be finished in 3 months for the release in J.

Also this was my costume last year:

I wasn't trying to be serious here, but now that you put it that way, I'll have to use logic. Cod Ghosts will outsell Titanfall, hands down. It's releasing on 6 different platforms, instead of 2, and it's an established i.p. Don't be naive, and "try again."

And I'm just sitting here with my Wii U
