danthrax Member May 18, 2010 #4 Have you done any of your own research yet? Any CPU preference? AMD? Intel?
G GrandeFinn New Member May 18, 2010 #5 Im kinda new to this sorry. I need a gaming computer no monitor, but speakers yes. I really dont much about the hardware just how to put it together?

G GrandeFinn New Member May 19, 2010 #10 2000 was the most i could spend. If i didn't have to it would be better.
S sirsaechao New Member May 19, 2010 #11 $2k is a great gaming machine IMO. 2.1 speaker I have & recommend is the Z-2300.
