Basically my old computer has a bad motherboard and is a piece of crap...were either going to have to replace a bunch of parts in the comp or just buy a new one. Thing is my dad is the one buying the stuff....he doesn't want to spend very much money (pretty typical). Anyways, I would like to have a decent gaming machine and I have seen some pretty nice ones in the $600-800 dollar range. However, my dad seems to think that is outrageous. I need it to run Everquest 2 ( I would prefer to have something with 3-4 Gigs of RAM and a nicer video card, 2.5ghz+ processor)....anyways I don't even know if its possible to get a decent comp for under $400, but give me your opinions. As far as building a comp goes, I'm not sure if that is an option right now, so please just give me opinions on complete desktops.
