Cheapest desktop computer money could buy

[Sublime]

Im looking for a good gaming computer, with a $650 budget. Would It be better to buy a laptop or a desktop for gaming? which desktop or laptop would be a cheap and fast computer for gaming?

A desktop, for sure. It would be much better if you can build your own, you will get a much better rig for the price.

I would suggest something like an i3 3220 or the fx 6300 paired up with a 7850 and a cheap yet decent motherboard. Sorry but I don't have time to give you the full specs right now.

^ Good suggestion.

I'll quickly do you a build for 650 bucks. I don't know if you need Windows or not so I haven't included it in the build list (it's 100 bucks for 7 Home x64 OEM).

This lot comes to $655.
